Abstract: The dynamic characteristics of fluid transmission lines with a parallel branching line are analyzed in both time and frequency domains using modal approximation techniques which enable us to use ...

Abstract: For both hydraulic and pneumatic transmission lines, analytical dissipative modal approximation techniques, which take into account the frequency dependent viscosity and heat transfer effects, are ...

Abstract: Modal bond graph representations of the dissipative model of rigid, cylindrical fluid transmission lines with laminar flow are developed. Modal approximation techniques are used for both hydraulic ...

Abstract: Consideration of a hydrogen based economy is attractive because it allows energy to be transported and stored at high densities and then transformed into useful work in pollution-free turbine ...

Abstract: The purpose of the present study is to develop a numerical model for the investigation of water waves propagating over a pair of impermeable submerged obstacles. The mathematic model is formulated by coupling solutions of ...

Abstract: A numerical technique for integrating the fully elliptic Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes and diffusion equations has been used to investigate the effect of ambient density stratification on the flow characteristics of a ...

Abstract: Through its New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) the Japanese government is sponsoring the World Energy Network (WE-NET) Program. WE-NET is a 28-year global effort ...

Abstract: A dynamic model of a multi-port electronic fuel injection system, capable of analyzing fast fluid transients in the fuel, is presented. The model consists of distributed parameter models for ...
