Abstract: Polar ice cap cracks open sporadically to form thin, long, narrow channels of open water, which are referred to as ?leads.? When the open water is exposed to ambient air in the winter, surface freezing occurs, thus rejecting ...

Abstract: The local mass transfer over dissolving surfaces was measured at pipe Reynolds number of 50,000, 100,000, and 200,000. Tests were run at multiple time periods for each Reynolds number using 203 mm diameter test sections ...

Abstract: Experiments were performed to investigate the local development of roughness and its effect on mass transfer in an S-shaped bend at Reynolds number of 200,000. The tests were performed over four consecutive time periods ...

Abstract: Laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate the fluid motions resulting from the impingement of a descending thermal on a sharp density interface with the hope of gaining insight into lead-induced convection in ...

Abstract: The distributions of the mass transfer coefficient in horizontal 90 deg bends were measured under a range of two phase annular flow conditions. A dissolving wall technique at a high Schmidt number (Sc = 1280) is used ...

Abstract: The local mass transfer and the resulting roughness in a 203 mm diameter backtoback bend arranged in an Sconfiguration were measured at a Reynolds number of 300,000. A dissolving wall method using gypsum dissolution to ...

Abstract: Laboratory experiments were performed to investigate the aggregate behavior of two identical parallel line turbulent plumes that were discharged to either a homogeneous water column or a two-layer fluid. These studies were ...
