Abstract: A new technique of measuring void fraction in magnetic fluid using electromagnetic induction was proposed. In order to establish the measuring method, a feasibility study was conducted experimentally ...

Abstract: Experiments were done on a 200-mm-dia open propeller behind a simulated ice blockage in a cavitation tunnel. The propeller performance in uniform flow and blocked flow is contrasted over a ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new method to reduce turbulent frictional drag by injecting high-viscosity fluid into the boundary layer. When the turbulent region of the boundary layer is filled with ...

Abstract: Generation mechanism of cloud cavitation on a hydrofoil section was investigated in a sequence of experiments through observation of cloud cavitation by high-speed video and high-speed photo as ...

Abstract: The structure of flow around unsteady cloud cavitation on a stationary two-dimensional hydrofoil was investigated experimentally using a conditional sampling technique. The unsteady flow velocity ...

Abstract: In this paper, a solar water heater using supercritical carbon dioxide as working fluid is proposed and experimentally studied. For supercritical carbon dioxide, a small change in temperature ...
