Abstract: Liner cavitation induced by piston slap in a diesel engine is caused by water pressure fluctuation when the pressure of coolant falls below saturated vapor pressure. Cavitation erosion of cylinder liners is thought to be ...

Abstract: Quenching is an important phenomenon when the emergency core cooling system is put into operation during loss of coolant accident (LOCA) in a nuclear reactor. In this study, an experimental apparatus is designed and ...

Abstract: This article presents a three-dimensional semianalytic cascade model for the prediction of rotor–stator interaction noise, which includes the effects of radially variable sweep angle and chord length to better account for ...

Abstract: A threedimensional computational model for acoustic scattering with complex geometries is presented, which employs the immersed boundary technique to deal with the effect of both hard and soft wall boundary conditions on ...

Abstract: An experimental study is carried out to investigate the flow characteristics of the trailing edge of the horizontal vanes mounted at the branch entrance of a T-junction duct by means of particle image velocimetry (PIV). ...

Abstract: Heat transfer characteristics of a circular cylinder in the branch of a T-junction duct are experimentally investigated in a low-speed wind tunnel with Reynolds number of Reb = 9163. Local and average heat transfer ...
