Abstract: This paper presents a model for a water-cooled Lithium-Bromide/water absorption chiller and predicts its transient response both during the start-up phase and during the shutoff period. The ...

Abstract: Matrix geometry techniques are applied to predicting three-dimensional cutting forces. In the present model a specific cutting plane is located and two-dimensional metal cutting theory is applied. ...

Abstract: The Second Law of Thermodynamics is used to analyze solar powered absorption cooling cycles and systems. Irreversibility is used as a figure of merit for components and cycles. The irreversibility ...

Abstract: The use of computerized system simulations for sizing and performance predictions of various solar systems requires some form of weather input to act as a system stimulus. When actual weather ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the dynamic analysis of the magnetic bearing stack system. The stack consists of a single flywheel supported by two magnetic bearings. To model the system, the dynamic ...

Abstract: The conventional product development cycle time in producing a part can be reduced by eliminating design errors and difficult to machine features before manufacturing process begins. This paper ...
