Abstract: Future coalfired steam turbines promise increased efficiency and low emissions. However, this comes at the expense of increased thermal load from higher inlet steam temperatures and pressures leading to severe creep that ...

Abstract: The continued development of electro-hydrostatic actuators (EHAs) in aerospace applications has put forward an increasing demand upon EHA pumps for their high power density. Besides raising the delivery pressure, increasing ...

Abstract: The output flow ripple of the axial piston pump is one of the excitation sources for the hydraulic system vibration. The amplitudes of its specific harmonics must be reduced to avoid the resonance with the hydraulic pipeline. ...

Abstract: Slug flow is a common flow pattern in the liquid–liquid two-phase flow in microchannels. It is an ideal pattern for mass transfer enhancement. Many factors influence the slug formation such as the channel geometries (channel ...
