The Influence of Thermal Transient Rates on Coated Turbine Parts' Life Expectancy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During rapid engine throttling operations, turbine airfoils can experience very rapid heating and cooling, particularly at take-off conditions. These rapid transient events lead to the generation of high thermal gradients ...
The Impact of North Atlantic–Arctic Multidecadal Variability on Northern Hemisphere Surface Air Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The twentieth-century Northern Hemisphere surface climate exhibits a long-term warming trend largely caused by anthropogenic forcing, with natural decadal climate variability superimposed on it. This study addresses the ...
Determination of Viscosity Versus Pressure by Means of a Clearance Seal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the construction and testing of a simple, experimental tool setup that enables determination of the pressure–viscosity relationship for high viscosity oils. Comparing the determined pressure–viscosity ...
