Enhancement of the Thermodynamic Suppression Effect of Cavitation in a Hydrofoil With a Slit
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The occurrence and growth of cavitation are suppressed in cryogenic fluids used as propellants for liquid rockets, and this phenomenon is called the thermodynamic suppression effect of cavitation. This effect is attributed ...
Experimental Study of the Cavitating Flow on an Independently Heated Venturi Nozzle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Despite the observation of change in the cavitation regime on a heated surface, the specific section of the wall surface that plays a more dominant role in this transition phenomenon remains unknown. This study experimentally ...
Change in Cavitation Regime on NACA0015 Hydrofoil by Heating the Hydrofoil Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental study of cavitating flow on a heated NACA0015 hydrofoil was conducted in a cavitation tunnel to investigate the influence of the hydrofoil surface temperature on the cavitating flow. The cavitation behavior ...
Minimizing Tissue Surface Overheating Using Convective Cooling During Laser Induced Thermal Therapy: A Numerical Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Laserinduced thermal therapy (LITT) is a noninvasive medical procedure for treatment of tumors and small lesion. Skin surface overheating and thermal damage to the undesired areas of tissue are two major concerns during ...
Thermodynamic Suppression Effect of Cavitation Arising in a Hydrofoil in 140 °C Hot Water
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The thermodynamic suppression effect of cavitation arising in a NACA0015 single hydrofoil is experimentally investigated in water at mainstream temperatures of T∞ = 20 °C to 140 °C in the present study. The cavity length ...
