Abstract: A steady-flow approach for finite-time thermodynamics is used to calculate the maximum thermal efficiency, its corresponding power output, adiabatic temperature ratio, and thermal-conductance ratio ...

Abstract: Pushrod-type valve trains are still found in many engines. Since a vertical pushrod causes interference with the intake port, which reduces engine power, the pushrod is sometimes tilted to ...

Abstract: Conversion of a natural watershed into its equivalent kinematic wave rectangular plane has long been a concern in the practice of storm water numerical simulations. Based on the principles of mass and energy, the actual ...
