Experimental Study of the Type VI Stilling Basin Performance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Understanding the estuarine turbulent flow from dams, channels, and pipes, as well as the river flow are very important due to the potential to cause damage to the bed of the river or channel and cause scouring of structures ...
Bulk Velocity and Mass Flowrate Estimation of Particle Plumes Through Particle Image Velocimetry Analysis of Thermogram Sequences
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements are commonly used to determine velocity fields from a flow, given that sufficient tracers can be added and tracked to determine their motion. While these types of measurements ...
A Non-Intrusive Particle Temperature Extraction Methodology Using Infrared and Visible-Image Sequences for High-Temperature Particle Plumes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The direct measurement of particle temperatures in particle-laden flows presents a unique challenge to thermometry due to the flow's transient and stochastic nature. Previous attempts to measure the bulk particle temperature ...
The Application of a Non-Intrusive Methodology to Estimate Particle Egress Rate and Advective Heat Losses of a Falling Particle Receiver During On-Sun Tests
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The direct measurement of particle temperatures and advective losses from solid particle receiver has been a topic of necessary interest to de-risk the technology and improve its performance. Due to the flow's transient ...
On the Development of Incompressible Round and Equilateral Triangular Jets Due to Reynolds Number Variation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The aim of this study is to examine the effects of Reynolds number (Re = 6000–20,000) on mean and turbulent quantities as well as turbulent structures in the near and intermediate regions of equilateral triangular and round ...
Observation of the Development of Secondary Features in a Richtmyer–Meshkov Instability Driven Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Richtmyer–Meshkov instability (RMI) has long been the subject of interest for analytical, numerical, and experimental studies. In comparing results of experiment with numerics, it is important to understand the limitations ...
Shock Driven Particle Transport Off Smooth and Rough Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The behavior of respirable particles being swept off a surface by the passage of a shock wave presents an interesting but littlestudied problem. This problem has wideranging applications, from military to aerospace, and ...
