Abstract: This paper analyzes the operative characteristics of a three-hole cobra type probe especially designed to attain an angular range higher than 180deg for planar turbulent flows. A new calibration ...

Abstract: This paper is conceived as an extension in the analysis of the periodic stator-rotor interaction in a low-speed axial fan with inlet guide vanes. Here, the present work focuses on the ...

Abstract: Modern designs for centrifugal pumps consider flow unsteadiness as a main concern. The averaged impact of blade to blade structures and impeller-tongue or impeller-diffuser interactions is considered ...

Abstract: This work deals with a numerical simulation developed to predict the characteristic cooling times of a low-thermal diffusivity fuel oil confined in the tanks of a wrecked ship. A typical ...

Abstract: The present study is focused on the analysis of the dynamic and periodic interaction between both fixed and rotating blade rows in a single stage, low-speed axial fan with inlet guide vanes. ...

Abstract: The flow in a double suction centrifugal pump is presented in this paper. The static performance of the machine has been obtained in a proper test rig, and the results have been compared ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the structure of turbulence and secondary flows at the exit of an axial flow fan with variable pitch blades. The influence of changing the blades’ pitch angle over the ...
