RISFull Load and Part-Load Performance Prediction for Integrated SOFC and Microturbine Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: During the last years, two new subjects among the others have raised interest in the field of small scale electric power generation: advanced microturbines and solid oxide fuel cells. This ...
Computationally Efficient Micromechanical Models for Woven Fabric Composite Elastic Moduli
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents two newly developed micromechanical models for the analysis of plain weave fabric composites. Both models utilize the representative volume cell approach. The representative ...
A Study of Near-Field Entrainment in Gas Jets and Sprays Under Diesel Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a computational study of entrainment characteristics in the near-field of gas jets under atmospheric and Diesel conditions and sprays under Diesel conditions. Computed flowfield ...
The Computation of a Two-Dimensional Turbulent Wall Jet in an External Stream
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An extended expression for the primary turbulent shear stress combined with an algebraic Reynolds-stress model is applied to the computation of a two-dimensional turbulent wall jet. This model ...
Free Abrasive Machining in Slicing Brittle Materials With Wiresaw
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wiresaw has emerged as a leading technology in wafer preparation for microelectronics fabrication, especially in slicing large silicon wafers (diameter≥300 mm) for both microelectronic and photovoltaic ...
Finned Metal Foam Heat Sinks for Electronics Cooling in Forced Convection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we present recent experimental results on forced convective heat transfer in novel finned metal foam heat sinks. Experiments were conducted on aluminum foams of 90 percent porosity ...
Intelligent Sliding Mode Control of Cutting Force During Single-Point Turning Operations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel intelligent control architecture has been developed to regulate cutting forces during single-point turning operations. A self-adapting Sliding Mode Controller (SMC) accounts for parameter ...
Modeling of Ball-End Milling Forces With Cutter Axis Inclination
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the machining of sculpture surfaces with ball-end mill, the cutter axis or workpiece is often inclined to generate an admissible orientation. This paper primarily presents an enhanced cutting ...
Warping Analysis in Laminated Object Manufacturing Process
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study presents an analysis of warping that occurs in the laminated object manufacturing process. Based on the study of thermal-mechanical behavior of the adhesive and its effect on the ...
The Impact of Surface Errors on the Location and Orientation of a Cylindrical Workpiece in a Fixture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface error at the contact region is one factor that contributes to the displacement of the workpiece in a fixture. This work employs the Newton-Raphson technique to develop a mathematical ...
