ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

Nonequilibrium Throughflow Analyses of Low-Pressure, Wet Steam Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper describes a throughflow computational method that combines wet steam theory with an axisymmetric streamline curvature technique in order to predict nonequilibrium effects in low-pressure ...
Defining the Efficiency of a Cooled Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Despite 40 years development of gas turbine cooling technology, there is no general agreement on the most appropriate definition of cooled turbine efficiency; the critical issue is the choice ...
A Detailed Three-Dimensional Simulation of an IP-SOFC Stack
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A typical integrated-planar solid oxide fuel cell (IP-SOFC) consists of modules with series connected electrochemical cells printed on their outer surfaces. Oxygen is supplied to the cathodes ...
Nonequilibrium Streamline Curvature Throughflow Calculations in Wet Steam Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper describes a computer program which combines the streamline curvature throughflow calculation method with one-dimensional wet steam theory. Two subsonic applications are described in detail: ...
Diffusion and Chemical Reaction in the Porous Structures of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Rolls-Royce integrated-planar solid oxide fuel cell (IP-SOFC) consists of ceramic modules with electrochemical cells printed on the outer surfaces. The cathodes are supplied with oxygen from ...
The Deposition of Fog Droplets on Steam Turbine Blades by Turbulent Diffusion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A theoretical approach for calculating the rate of deposition of fog droplets on steam turbine blades by turbulent diffusion is described. The theory is similar to that which has proved ...
Fog Droplet Deposition and Coarse Water Formation in Low-Pressure Steam Turbines: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper describes a theoretical and experimental study of fog droplet deposition and coarse water formation in the LP cylinders of two 500 MW steam turbines. Measurements of coarse water ...
The Inertial Deposition of Fog Droplets on Steam Turbine Blades
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A theoretical approach for calculating the rate of deposition of fog droplets on steam turbine blades by inertial impaction is described. Deposition rates are computed by tracking a number of ...
Two-Dimensional, Nonequilibrium, Wet-Steam Calculations for Nozzles and Turbine Cascades
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper describes a method of computing nonequilibrium, steady flows of wet steam in two- and quasi-three-dimensional turbine cascades. The mixture conservation equations are solved in an ...
Critical Conditions and the Choking Mass Flow Rate in Nonequilibrium Wet Steam Flows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A theoretical analysis of choking in steady, one-dimensional, nonequilibrium, wet steam flows is presented. It is shown that such a flow becomes choked when the vapor phase velocity attains the ...
