Investigation of Flashing Flow in a Siphon to Extract Condensate in Paper Dryer Application
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper industry uses steam to dry paper web through cylinder dryers. As steam condenses inside the dryer, the condensate is removed by means of either a stationary or a rotary siphon. However, during the siphoning process ...
Investigation of Thermal-Flow Behavior and Droplet Dynamics of Mist Sweeping Impinging Jet Cooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a 2-D numerical study to investigate the fluid flow behavior and cooling characteristics caused by injecting tiny water droplets into the sweeping air jet through a fluidic oscillator. An unsteady ...
An Experimental Study of Mist/Air Film Cooling on a Flat Plate With Application to Gas Turbine Airfoils—Part I: Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Film cooling is a cooling technique widely used in highperformance gas turbines to protect the turbine airfoils from being damaged by hot flue gases. Motivated by the need to further improve film cooling in terms of both ...
An Experimental Study of Mist/Air Film Cooling On a Flat Plate With Application to Gas Turbine Airfoils—Part II: Two Phase Flow Measurements and Droplet Dynamics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA) system is employed to measure the twophase mist flow behavior including flow velocity field, droplet size distribution, droplet dynamics, and turbulence characteristics. Based on ...
Simulation of Char Dust Combustion Inside a Pyroscrubber Downstream of a Petroleum Coke Calcining Kiln
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A pyroscrubber is a furnace used in the petroleum coke calcining industry to recover energy from the carbonaceous contents, including char dust and hydrocarbon volatiles of the exhaust gas from ...
Investigation of Combustion and Thermal Flow Inside a Petroleum Coke Rotary Calcining Kiln With Potential Energy Saving Considerations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Calcined coke is a competitive material for making carbon anodes for smelting of alumina to aluminum. Calcining is an energy intensive industry and a significant amount of heat is exhausted in the calcining process. ...
An Experimental Study of Mist/Air Film Cooling With Fan-Shaped Holes on an Extended Flat Plate—Part II: Two-Phase Flow Measurements and Droplet Dynamics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA) system is employed to measure the two-phase mist flow behavior including flow velocity field, droplet size distribution, droplet dynamics, and turbulence characteristics. Based on ...
An Experimental Study of Mist/Air Film Cooling With Fan-Shaped Holes on an Extended Flat Plate—Part 1: Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Motivated by the need to further improve film cooling in terms of both cooling effectiveness and coolant coverage area, the mist/air film cooling scheme is investigated through experiments using fan-shaped holes over an ...
Investigation of the Effect of Perforated Sheath on Thermal-Flow Characteristics Over a Gas Turbine Reverse-Flow Combustor—Part 2: Computational Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of Part 2 is to employ a computational scheme to investigate the difference in flow pattern, pressure drop, and heat transfer in a gas turbine’s dump diffuser and over the outer surface of the combustor with ...
Investigation of the Effect of Perforated Sheath on Thermal-Flow Characteristics Over a Gas Turbine Reverse-Flow Combustor—Part 1: Experiment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reverse-flow combustors have been used in heavy, land-based gas turbines for many decades. A sheath is typically installed over the external walls of the combustor and transition piece to provide enhanced cooling through ...
