Thermal Instability in Differentially Heated Inclined Fluid Layers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In an inclined adversely heated fluid layer confined between two rigid boundaries in a slot of large aspect ratio it is found that the unicellular base flow in the conduction regime becomes ...
Sampling Strategies for Mass‐Discharge Estimation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Methodology derived from sampling theory is presented for the estimation of in‐stream contaminant mass‐discharge or load. The historical record is stratified into relatively homogeneous units in order to approach normality ...
Thermal Instability in Fluid Layers in the Presence of Horizontal and Vertical Temperature Gradients
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the horizontal crystal growth methods a horizontal temperature gradient is imposed upon a liquid material. Instances have been recorded when thermal convection has been found to occur in the ...
The Laminar Boundary Layer Between Parallel Streams of Nonhomogeneous Immiscible Fluids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The boundary-layer expansions (inner and outer expansions) of the flow between parallel streams of incompressible, immiscible fluids involve different perturbation parameters (Reynolds numbers) for ...
Boundary Conditions for the Turbulent Mixing Layer Between Two Parallel Streams
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The boundary conditions of the boundary-layer problem between two parallel turbulent streams are investigated solving higher-order terms of the inner and outer boundary-layer expansion. It is shown ...
Stochastic Modeling of Transient Heat Flow Through Walls
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solar radiation and temperature vary during the day. These variations are also subject to “random” fluctuations caused by rapid changes in atmospheric conditions. In this paper a procedure has ...
The Laminar Two-Dimensional Free Jet of an Incompressible Pseudoplastic Fluid
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Boundary-layer equations have been used to obtain an exact solution for the free outflow of a non-Newtonian pseudoplastic fluid from a two-dimensional orifice into a mass of the same fluid. ...
The Hydroelastic Stability of a Flat Plate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper examines the hydroelastic stability of a flat plate, one side of which is exposed to a high velocity flow of a heavy fluid such as water. The plate is found to become unstable ...
The Influence of a Free Surface on the Hydroelastic Stability of a Flat Panel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper examines the influence of a parallel free surface on the hydroelastic stability of a flat panel. A quasi-two-dimensional approximation is made for the free surface displacement and ...
On the Dynamic Stability of Fluid-Conveying Pipes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a general analysis of the dynamic stability of a finite-length, fluid-conveying pipe. The Flügge-Kempner equation is used in conjunction with classical potential theory so ...
