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.

A Study on Design Criteria and Matching of Turbomachines: Part A—Similarity Relations and Design Criteria of Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Only four parameters are needed to describe the characteristics of turbomachines completely. This concept is used to present maximum obtainable efficiencies and the optimum design geometry of ...
A Study on Design Criteria and Matching of Turbomachines: Part B—Compressor and Pump Performance and Matching of Turbocomponents
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The similarity concept, presented in Part A of this paper, for describing the characteristics of turbines is used to provide design and performance information on pumps and compressors, based ...
A Study on Reynolds Number Effects in Turbomachines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Typical space power units have a tendency to encounter low Reynolds numbers in the last turbine stages. Comprehensive test data on the effect of low Reynolds numbers on the efficiency of ...
Discussion: “Typical Performance Characteristics of Gas Turbine Radial Compressors” (Rodgers, Colin, 1964, ASME J. Eng. Power, 86, pp. 161–170)

Erratum: “Discussion of ‘Typical Performance Characteristics of Gas Turbine Radial Compressors’” (Journal of Engineering for Power, 1964, 86, pp. 170–174)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Loss and Flow Path Studies on Centrifugal Compressors—Part I
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Relations are derived for the boundary layer momentum thickness growth in channels with adverse pressure gradients and for the maximum allowable momentum thickness to avoid flow separation. These ...
Loss and Flow Path Studies on Centrifugal Compressors—Part II
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flow conditions in a mixed flow rotor are investigated for a “pressure balanced” flow path design. Boundary layer arguments are applied to calculate the losses in the rotor as well as ...
Axial Cascade Technology and Application to Flow Path Designs. Part I—Axial Cascade Technology
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Using established cascade criteria, such as the aerodynamic blade loading coefficient and the blade surface diffusion ratio, generalized relations for the losses in cascades of axial turbomachines ...
Axial Turbine Performance Evaluation. Part A—Loss-Geometry Relationships
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Generalized loss correlations for full and partial admission turbines have been derived and critically compared with recently published data. Effects included are Reynolds number, blade angles, ...
Axial Turbine Performance Evaluation. Part B—Optimization With and Without Constraints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The maximum obtainable efficiency and associated geometry have been calculated based on the use of generalized loss correlations from Part A and are presented for full and partial admission ...
