RISQuality Control “A Necessity Not an Option”
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Quality control is a means by which project design engineers may help eliminate some construction-related problems and address the issue of an engineer's obligation to the general public. Ignoring quality control or relying ...
The Effect of Bubble Size on Lock-Exchange Density Currents through Bubble Screens
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Bubble screens are used at sea locks to mitigate salt intrusion into inland water systems. In this paper the effectiveness of a bubble screen in delaying the mixing of salt and freshwater via lock exchange was studied. ...
Assessing the Effectiveness of the IJmuiden Salt Screen Design for Nonuniform Selective Withdrawal by Physical and Numerical Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Salt water intrusion through the New Sea Lock of IJmuiden, Netherlands requires mitigation to ensure availability of enough fresh water further inland. For this purpose, a salt screen has been proposed for selective ...
Simultaneous Mapping of Bubbling Regimes and Thermal Layer During Direct Contact Condensation of Steam Using Gradients-Based Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Direct contact condensation experiments of steam in subcooled water are carried out for subcooling levels of ΔTsub= 20 °C, 30 °C, and 40 °C with a steam injection mass flux of 20 kg/m2 s. Rainbow schlieren deflectometry ...
