Abstract: Research focused in the present paper to evaluate the combustion, performance, and emission characteristics of refined biodiesel (refined biofuel) such as sunflower oil methyl ester (SOME) with the partial addition of ...

Abstract: Flexible link systems are increasingly becoming popular for advantages like superior performance in micro/nanopositioning, less weight, compact design, lower power requirements, and so on. The dynamics of distributed and ...

Abstract: The natural frequency of an infinite railroad track was first determined by Timoshenko as ωR = √k/m , where k is the constant for the massless Winkler foundation and m is the mass per unit ...

Abstract: Large eddy simulations of flow and heat transfer in a square ribbed duct with rib height to hydraulic diameter of 0.1 and 0.05 and rib pitch to rib height ratio of 10 and 20 are carried out with the near wall region being ...

Abstract: Reynoldsaveraged Navier–Stokes (RANS) and largeeddy simulations (LES) of a Siemens scaled combustor are compared against comprehensive experimental data. The steady RANS simulation modeled one quarter of the geometry ...

Abstract: are compared with the experimental data of Patil et al. (2011, “Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Convective Heat Transfer in Gas Turbine Can Combustor,” ASME J. Turbomach., 133 (1), p. 011028) for the local heat...

Abstract: The resonant frequency of the railroad track is first determined by Timoshenko by modeling the track as a beam on a massless Winkler Foundation. The mass of the foundation and the vibrating load is not included in the ...

Abstract: The goal of this study is to provide pump users a simple means to predict a pump's performance change due to changing fluid viscosity. During the initial investigation, it has been demonstrated that pump performance can ...
