Abstract: The velocity and temperature distributions in a long dead-end channel, where the convective flow is driven by the buoyancy flux across the free surface, were investigated. The longitudinal ...

Abstract: The multirecess noncircular hybrid journal bearings have been receiving wide importance in order to overcome the adverse effects on performance characteristics of multirecess circular journal ...

Abstract: The behavior of the thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication film in rough rolling/sliding line contacts at dynamic loads is investigated numerically. The lubricant is assumed to be a mixture of ...

Abstract: A general solution scheme to account the surface roughness and the cross-film viscosity variation of lubricant due to its non-Newtonian behavior and rise in fluid-film temperature for the analysis ...

Abstract: Material loss due to erosion is a serious problem associated with the flow of solid-liquid mixtures. In the present work, erosion wear tests have been carried out in a slurry pot tester for ...

Abstract: When a composite material is subjected to a time varying strain field, energy is dissipated because of the thermoelastic effect (elastothermodynamic damping or ETD). Evaluation of ETD in ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the stability margin of a constant flow valve compensated hole-entry hybrid journal bearing system considering bearing flexibility and variation of viscosity due to temperature ...
