Forces on and Stability of a Cylinder in a Wake
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A model is developed for the steady fluid forces on a cylinder that is in the wake of a parallel, upstream cylinder in cross flow. The fluid forces are determined by correlating experimental ...
Energy Storage Technologies for Utility Scale Intermittent Renewable Energy Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: If solar-generated electricity is to be a credible alternative to fossil or nuclear power it must have technical characteristics equal to those sources of energy; that is, it must be easily ...
Axial Compressor Aerodesign Evolution at General Electric
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper traces the origins of the GE Design System and how it has evolved from early methods to underlie and supplement present CFD methods, which are not themselves discussed herein. The ...
Comparison of Methods for Calculating Stress Intensity Factors for the Thread of a Pressure Vessel Closure and of a Gun Breech Ring
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Non-mandatory Appendix D of Section VIII, Division 3 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provides a method for calculating the stress intensity factors for the region of a thread root ...
Conservatism of the Grid Convergence Index in Finite Volume Computations on Steady-State Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This note presents observations on 1 relevant to the evaluation of the adequacy of the conservatism of my grid convergence index (GCI) method of uniform reporting of grid convergence studies ...
New UHMWPE/Rubber Bearing Alloy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new polymer bearing alloy has been developed that overcomes the high wear nonhydrodynamic deficiencies of UHMWPE when water-lubricated and the shaft wear and high breakaway friction of rubber ...
Stress Analysis and Design for Cyclic Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A finite element implementation of rapid cycle analysis is described and demonstrated. It forms part of a comprehensive framework for static structural analysis which consists of: linear elastic ...
A Short History of High Pressure Technology From Bridgman to Division 3
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper will briefly review the development of high pressure technology from the early basic science through the major applications that have driven the technology. These include gun barrel ...
Differential Geometrical Conditions of Hypoid Gears with Conjugate Tooth Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hypoid gears are one of the most general form of gearing, and a theoretical solution for them has been studied by many researchers. Many hypotheses and theorems about these gears have been ...
Three-Dimensional Stress Criteria—Summary of the PVRC Project
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper summarizes work done by the Pressure Vessel Research Council (PVRC) on three-dimensional stress criteria, using primarily elastic two and three-dimensional analytical techniques, finite ...
