Experimental Investigation of Heat Transfer to Supercritical Pressure Fluid in Tubes With Rough Inner Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The highly corrosive environment inside a supercritical water-cooled reactor (SCWR) places stringent demands on the fuel rod cladding material, particularly requiring it to have strong corrosion resistance. However, within ...
Analysis of Focusing Effect of Light Metallic Layer in Stratified Molten Pool Under IVR ERVC Condition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The main failure mechanism of invessel corium retention through external reactor vessel cooling (IVRERVC) happens when the local heat flux through reactor pressure vessel (PRV) wall exceeds the critical heat flux (CHF). ...
Numerical Study of Unsteady Flow Around Airfoil With Spoiler
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A discrete vortex model based on the panel method has been developed to simulate the two-dimensional unsteady separated flow generated by the rapid deployment of a spoiler on the upper surface ...
Influence of Bandgap on the Response of Periodic Metaconcrete Rod Structure under Blast Load
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A metamaterial is an engineered material made by embedding engineered cores (heavy cores coated with a soft coating) into a matrix, which generates bandgaps such that stress waves with frequencies falling into the bandgaps ...
Optimization of the Nodalization of Nuclear System Thermal-Hydraulic Code Applied on Primary Loop Benchmark
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In best estimate plus uncertainty approach for thermal-hydraulic simulation in nuclear engineering, a crucial step for the qualification of the scenario simulation is the discretization, i.e., the nodalization of nuclear ...
Development and Performance of Roof-Based Building-Integrated Photovoltaic-Thermal Systems: A Review
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A building-integrated photovoltaic-thermal (BIPVT) system integrates building envelope and photovoltaic-thermal collectors to produce electricity and heat. In this paper, the electrical and thermal performance of roof-based ...
Analysis of Traffic Flow Speed-Density Relation Model Characteristics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Leaky Lamb Waves for the Ultrasonic Nondestructive Evaluation of Adhesive Bonds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The critical role played by interface zones in the fracture and failure of composites and other bonded materials is well known. However, the existing nondestructive evaluation methods are not ...
Measurements and Modeling of the Dynamic Response of a Pilot Stabilized Premixed Flame Under Dual-Input Perturbation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pilot flames have been widely used for flame stabilization in low-emission gas turbine combustors. Effects of pilot flame on dynamic instabilities, however, are not well understood. In this work, the dynamic interactions ...
Mechanical and Hydraulic Behaviors in a Single Fracture with Asperities Crushed during Shear
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Understanding the mechanical and hydraulic behaviors in a single fracture is important for underground rock engineering. In this study, coupled shear-flow tests were performed on five single fractures with regular dentate ...
