Heat Transfer of a Rotating Rectangular Channel With a Diamond Shaped Pin Fin Array at High Rotation Numbers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This experimental study measured the detailed Nusselt numbers (Nu) distributions over two opposite leading and trailing walls of a rotating rectangular channel fitted with a diamondshaped pinfin array with radially outward ...
A Modified Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for the Design of a Double Pad Aerostatic Bearing With a Pocketed Orifice Type Restrictor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The performance of an aerostatic bearing with a pocketed orificetype restrictor is affected by the bearing size, pocket size, orifice design, supply pressure, and bearing load. This study proposes a modified particle swarm ...
Selecting Building Designs with Consideration of Sustainability and Resiliency
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sustainability and resiliency against hazards are two important factors in building design. Sustainability parameters or attributes can be evaluated through Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) ratings ...
Discharge Coefficients in Aerostatic Bearings With Inherent Orifice Type Restrictors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In aerostatic bearing analysis, determining film pressure by solving the Reynolds equation in a numerical model is more effective than conducting bearing experiments or performing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) ...
Validation Study of the CAPS Model Land Surface Scheme Using the 1987 Cabauw/PILPS Dataset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An updated complete and comprehensive description of the land surface parameterization scheme in the Coupled Atmosphere?Plant?Soil (CAPS) model is presented. The CAPS model has been in development at Oregon State University ...
Heat Transfer and Flow Characteristics of Two-Pass Parallelogram Channels With Attached and Detached Transverse Ribs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The full-field Nusselt number (Nu) distributions and flow fields are presented, respectively, using steady-state infrared thermography (IR) and particle image velocimetry (PIV) in the two-pass parallelogram channels with ...

Meteorological Reanalyses for the Study of Gulf War Illnesses: Khamisiyah Case Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Marine Meteorology Division of the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), assisted by the Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center, has performed global and mesoscale reanalyses to support the study of Gulf War ...
Cabauw Experimental Results from the Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes phase 2a experiment, meteorological data for the year 1987 from Cabauw, the Netherlands, were used as inputs to 23 land-surface flux schemes ...
Sensitivity of Latent Heat Flux from PILPS Land-Surface Schemes to Perturbations of Surface Air Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the PILPS Phase 2a experiment, 23 land-surface schemes were compared in an off-line control experiment using observed meteorological data from Cabauw, the Netherlands. Two simple sensitivity experiments were also ...
