RISAn Experimental Investigation of Solid-State Phase-Change Materials for Solar Thermal Storage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The goal of this study is to determine and produce the thermal properties of solid-state phase-change materials appropriate for solar system space heating storage (transition temperatures in the ...
Analytic Solution on Critical Suspended Particle Size and Minimum Collection Efficiency in Deep Bed Filtration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Deep bed filtration is one of the most frequently employed water treatment techniques, and is routinely applied in the clarification of dilute particle suspensions. The prediction of critical suspended particle size is ...
Remote Sensing of Precipitable Water over the Oceans from Nimbus 7 Microwave Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Nimbus 7 Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) brightness temperature measurements in the 21 and 18 GHz channels are used to sense the precipitable water in the atmosphere over oceans. The difference in the ...
Design Option of Heat Exchanger for the Next Generation Nuclear Plant
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The next generation nuclear plant (NGNP), a very high temperature gas-cooled reactor (VHTR) concept, will provide the first demonstration of a closed-loop Brayton cycle at a commercial scale, ...
A High Resolution Spatial and Temporal Multiple Doppler Analysis of a Microburst and Its Application to Aircraft Flight Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiple Doppler radar data collected during the Joint Airport Weather Studies (JAWS) Project is used to synthesize the three-dimensional wind in the region of a microburst. The particular microburst used in this study is ...
Seasonality in SST-Forced Atmospheric Short-Term Climate Predictability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The seasonal dependence of atmospheric short-term climate (i.e., seasonal to interannual) predictability is studied. This is accomplished by analyzing the output from ensemble integrations of the European Centre for ...
Drogue-Loss Detection for Surface Drifters during the Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER) was designed to study surface flows during winter conditions in the northern Gulf of Mexico. More than 1000 mostly biodegradable drifters were launched. The drifters ...
