Assessing Hydrologic Impact of Climate Change with Uncertainty Estimates: Bayesian Neural Network Approach
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A major challenge in assessing the hydrologic effect of climate change remains the estimation of uncertainties associated with different sources, such as the global climate models, emission scenarios, downscaling methods, ...
Effect of Variable Angular Piping Bends Geometry on Turbulent Flow of Supercritical Water in an SCWR Plant Piping Network: A Three-Dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics Investigation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: One of the most critical components of super critical water reactor (SCWR) plant is pipe bend, carrying massive volume of supercritical water. Because of its intense fluctuation of velocity and pressure, it can exhibit ...
Experimental Investigation of Single Phase Heat Transfer in a Plate Heat Exchanger
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present experimental study is carried out to verify previously published heat transfer results attained using a simpler yet nascent data reduction technique for the same plate heat exchanger. A gasketed, commercially ...
Global Sea Surface Temperature Forecasts Using an Improved Multimodel Approach
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ith the availability of hindcasts or real-time forecasts from a number of coupled climate models, multimodel ensemble forecasting systems have gained popularity in recent years. However, many models share similar physics ...
Thermal Hydraulic Analysis of Turbulent Flow of Superheated Steam Through Multiple Configurations of 3D Angular Piping Bend in Power Plant Installations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: One of the most vulnerable parts in high-pressure and temperature pipeline networks in steam turbine power plant installations is pipe bends, due to intense fluctuation of velocity and pressure of the superheated steam ...
Thermal Performance Comparison and Augmentation of Two Identical Box-Type Solar Cookers Operating in Tropical Climatic Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present study, experimental studies have been performed to compare the thermal performance of two geometrically identical box type solar (B-T-S) cookers. To carry out this aim, the thermal performance of BTS cooker ...
A Kinematic Synthesis Methodology for P-Drivable Spatial Single Degree-of-Freedom Mechanisms to Avoid Singularities
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For a single degree-of-freedom spatial mechanism, a reference frame attached to any of its links produces a continuous motion of this frame. Given the progression of this frame from the start through the end of the mechanism’s ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Parameters Affecting High-Frequency Irreversible Electroporation for Prostate Cancer Ablation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: While the primary goal of focal therapy for prostate cancer (PCa) is conserving patient quality of life by reducing oncological burden, available modalities use thermal energy or whole-gland radiation which can damage ...
