RISPressure Gradient and Choking Velocity for Adiabatic Pipe Flow of a Homogeneous Steam-Water-Solids Mixture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mixtures containing steam, water, and solids develop when processing ore slurries at elevated temperature and pressure. Based on homogeneous one-dimensional three-phase flow theory equations are ...
A Genetic Algorithm for Topological Characteristics of Kinematic Chains
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A genetic algorithm for testing isomorphism among kinematic chains and to select the best frame and input links is presented. The computational effort involved is minimum and the method is ...
The Influence of Small Particles on the Structure of a Turbulent Shear Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, an analytical solution is found for the Reynolds equations describing a simple turbulent shear flow carrying small, wake-less particles. An algebraic stress model is used as the ...
The High Pressure Rheology of Mixtures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Newtonian mixing rules for several binary systems have been experimentally investigated. Some systems show non-ideal mixing response and for some systems the non-ideal response is pressure-dependent, ...
Discussion: “Internal Bearing Chamber Wall Heat Transfer as a Function of Operating Conditions and Chamber Geometry” [ASME J. Eng. Gas Turbines Power, 122, No. 2, pp. 314–320]1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The subject under investigation is very important to the gas turbine industry, and the derivation of a correlation for the oil chamber wall heat transfer coefficient is long past overdue. The ...
Thermal Resistances of Circular Source on Finite Circular Cylinder With Side and End Cooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: General solution for thermal spreading and system resistances of a circular source on a finite circular cylinder with uniform side and end cooling is presented. The solution is applicable for ...
Dynamic Characteristics of an In-Contact Head Slider Considering Meniscus Force: Part 3—Wear Durability and Optimization of Surface Energy of Liquid Lubricant Under Perfect Contact Condition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The authors developed a computer simulator for in-contact head slider motion where a 3-DOF model of head-suspension assembly was introduced and effects of meniscus force between the slider and ...
The Generalized Newtonian Fluid Model and Elastohydrodynamic Film Thickness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The nature of real shear-thinning in elastohydrodynamic contacts is well-known from both experimental measurement and nonequilibrium molecular dynamics to follow a power-law. Shear-thinning will ...
Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for the Swing-Up of a Rotary Inverted Pendulum
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the experimental implementation of a gradient-based nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) algorithm to the swing-up control of a rotary inverted pendulum. The key attribute ...
Noise Reduction Using Finite-Length Flexible Segments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, the reduction of acoustic noise in piping systems through the installation of finite flexible segments is explored. A mathematical model describing the relevant parameters is ...
