A Study on Unstable S-Shape Characteristic Curves of Pump Turbines at No-Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A small model of a Francis-type pump turbine was tested without the rotating shroud and the radial distribution of pressure in the rotor was measured using pressure taps on the stationary ...
Creep-Fatigue Fracture of Dissimilar Metal Electron Beam Welded Joints at Elevated Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Creep-fatigue tests of dissimilar-metal electron beam welded joints between A387 Gr.22 ferritic low-alloy steel and AISI 405 ferritic stainless steel were carried out under strain-controlled cycling ...
A Photographic Study of the Three-Dimensional Flow in a Radial Compressor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to visualize the three-dimensional flow in the impeller and the vaneless diffuser of a centrifugal compressor, water is used as the working fluid and streak lines of colored water ...
Effects of Tip Clearance of Nozzle Vanes on Performance of Radial Turbine Rotor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In radial turbines with variable nozzles, the flow downstream of the nozzles could be distorted by the leakage flow through the tip clearance of the upstream nozzle vanes. To investigate the ...
Skill of Medium-Range Forecast Models Using the Same Initial Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the Different Models, Same Initial Conditions (DIMOSIC) project, forecasts from different global medium-range forecast models have been created based on the same initial conditions. The dataset consists of 10-day ...
C-FOG: Life of Coastal Fog
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive multidisciplinary research program on coastal fog provides unique insights on its lifecycle and predictability barriers.C-FOG is a comprehensive bi-national project dealing with the formation, persistence ...
