RISThe Instability of a Round Jet Surrounded by an Annular Shear Layer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A linear stability analysis of the large-scale structure of a round jet surrounded by an annular shear layer is presented. The study is limited to the developing region near the jet nozzle ...
Assessment of a Soft Sensor Approach for Determining Influent Conditions at the MWRDGC Calumet WRP
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Many older water reclamation plants (WRPs) are implementing model-based process control to satisfy increasingly stringent effluent requirements while they lower energy costs, but these methods require reliable process ...
The Use of Compressor-Inlet Prewhirl for the Control of Small Gas Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to describe a control system recently developed to provide nearly instantaneous power response with a two-shaft gas turbine. The principal elements in this system ...
Blade Repair With Adaptive Vision Tracking
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper discusses the repair welding of compressor and other blades contained in gas turbine engines. The specific topics of discussion are the application requirements, the general metallurgical ...
Analysis and Validation of a Unified Slip Factor Model for Impellers at Design and Off-Design Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a unified slip model for axial, radial, and mixed-flow impellers. The core assumption of the model is that the flow deviation or the slip velocity at the impeller exit ...
Volume Reduction Provided by Eight Residential Disconnected Downspouts in Durham, North Carolina
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One major concern of increased development is the proportion of directly connected impervious areas (DCIA) in urbanized watersheds. A cost-efficient opportunity to treat stormwater within existing residential and small-scale ...
Control and Identification of Vortex Wakes1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, control and identification methods for vortex wakes are investigated. The particular problem studied concerns the stabilization of vortices behind a flat plate, using backside ...
An Investigation of the Mechanics and Noise Associated with Coal Cutting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The results of a laboratory investigation of coal cutting mechanics and noise are presented. These experiments were performed using a linear cutting apparatus that operates over a broad cutting ...
Defining Influent Scenarios: Application of Cluster Analysis to a Water Reclamation Plant
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Process control at older water reclamation plants (WRPs) can be challenging as operators work to balance higher energy costs and more stringent effluent limitations while managing fluctuating loads. To better understand ...
Axisymmetric One-Dimensional Compressible Flow—Theory and Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Several generations of engineers have found that the one-dimensional approach to compressible fluid flows in ducts is extremely informative and effective. This paper extends these methods to ...
