Numerical Investigation of the Middle Atlantic Bight Shelfbreak Frontal Circulation Using a High-Resolution Ocean Hindcast Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A nested high-resolution ocean model is used to hindcast the Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) shelfbreak circulation from December 2003 to June 2008. The model is driven by tidal harmonics, realistic atmospheric forcing, and ...
Iterative Solution of Boundary Element Equations for the Exterior Helmholtz Problem
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper we study an efficient boundary element method for the determination of the acoustic field around arbitrary-shaped finite structures immersed in an infinite homogeneous acoustic ...
Effect of URANS and Hybrid RANS-Large Eddy Simulation Turbulence Models on Unsteady Turbulent Flows Inside a Side Channel Pump
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS) and three hybrid Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes-large eddy simulation (RANS-LES) models are employed to resolve the vortical flows in a typical single-stage ...
Speckled Laser Pump–Thermoreflectance Microscopy Probe to Measure and Study Micro/Nanoscale Thermal Transport: Numerical Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nondiffusive thermal transport in solids and their micro/nanostructures is a key subject in the research of micro/nanoscale heat conduction. A number of laser and optical techniques to measure or capture the nondiffusive ...
Analysis Method of Terminal Throughput Capacity for Coal Export Terminals
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Considering the limitations of previous calculation methods for the throughput capacity of coal export terminals, this paper proposes a new analysis method for terminal throughput capacity on the basis of a computer ...
Experimental and Numerical Evaluation of Affinity Law of Single-Stage and Multistage Side Channel Pumps at Variable Rotating Speeds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the actual operation of pumps, regulating the rotating speed of the pump based on the affinity law through variable speed drives is deemed as a prudent and convenient approach to mitigate energy loss. However, the ...
Influence of the Kuroshio Interannual Variability on the Summertime Precipitation over the East China Sea and Adjacent Area
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractMuch attention has been paid to the climatic impacts of changes in the Kuroshio Extension, instead of the Kuroshio in the East China Sea (ECS). This study, however, reveals the prominent influences of the lateral ...
Dynamic Characterization of Vortex Structures and Their Evolution Mechanisms in a Side Channel Pump
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To obtain a better insight into the unsteady flow behavior in side channel pumps by a robust vortex identification method, this study presents the efficacy of the new Ω-criterion in characterizing the evolution of vortex ...
Description of Unsteady Flow Characteristics in a Side Channel Pump With a Convex Blade
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To investigate the unsteady flow characteristics in side channel pumps, the vortex structures and their evolutions in the impeller and side channel flow passages have been comprehensively studied. Systematically, three ...
Quantification of Thermal Resistance of Transient Liquid Phase Bonded Cu/Al/Cu Interfaces for Assembly of Cu Based Microchannel Heat Exchangers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding of Cu structures with a thin elemental Al intermediate bonding layer is being used to assemble Cubased, enclosed, microchannel heat exchangers (MHEs). The heterogeneous Cu/Al/Cu TLP ...
