Full Load and Part-Load Performance Prediction for Integrated SOFC and Microturbine Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During the last years, two new subjects among the others have raised interest in the field of small scale electric power generation: advanced microturbines and solid oxide fuel cells. This ...
A Study of Near-Field Entrainment in Gas Jets and Sprays Under Diesel Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a computational study of entrainment characteristics in the near-field of gas jets under atmospheric and Diesel conditions and sprays under Diesel conditions. Computed flowfield ...
Free Abrasive Machining in Slicing Brittle Materials With Wiresaw
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wiresaw has emerged as a leading technology in wafer preparation for microelectronics fabrication, especially in slicing large silicon wafers (diameter≥300 mm) for both microelectronic and photovoltaic ...
Finned Metal Foam Heat Sinks for Electronics Cooling in Forced Convection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we present recent experimental results on forced convective heat transfer in novel finned metal foam heat sinks. Experiments were conducted on aluminum foams of 90 percent porosity ...
Warping Analysis in Laminated Object Manufacturing Process
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study presents an analysis of warping that occurs in the laminated object manufacturing process. Based on the study of thermal-mechanical behavior of the adhesive and its effect on the ...
The Impact of Surface Errors on the Location and Orientation of a Cylindrical Workpiece in a Fixture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface error at the contact region is one factor that contributes to the displacement of the workpiece in a fixture. This work employs the Newton-Raphson technique to develop a mathematical ...
Modeling and Calibration of Grid Structured Light Based 3-D Vision Inspection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The principle of structured light 3-D vision is introduced, and using projective and perspective transformations, the mathematical model of grid structured light based 3-D vision inspection is ...
Mechanics of Machining With Chamfered Tools
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Chamfered cutting tools are used in high speed machining of hardened steels due to their wedge strength. An analytic model is proposed to investigate the influence of chamfer angle and cutting ...
A Computational Mechanics Model for the Brim Forming Process in Paperboard Container Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The manufacturing process of brim forming in paperboard containers consists of taking a thin paperboard shell and forming a brim to provide additional stiffness to the structure. A paper cup ...
Estimation of Optimal Blank Holder Force Trajectories in Segmented Binders Using an ARMA Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sheet metal forming is one of the most important and frequently used manufacturing processes in industry today. One of the key parameters affecting the forming process is the blank holder force ...
