Abstract: Integrated water resource management (IWRM) and water sharing concepts are described. Various definitions of IWRM are presented. It can be described as a facilitated stakeholder process to promote coordinated activities ...

Abstract: The loss mechanism under consideration in this study is that fraction of turbomachinery blade profile loss 1 due to viscous dissipation and turbulent phenomena in the blade boundary layer. In ...

Abstract: The thermal resistance of electronic components is known to often differ considerably between standard test conditions and those found in service. One way to correct for this is to use ...

Abstract: Numerical predictive accuracy is assessed for component-printed circuit board (PCB) heat transfer in forced convection using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software for the thermal analysis ...

Abstract: A calibration equation is derived linking the nondimensional entropy generation rate per unit area with the nondimensional aerodynamic wall shear stress and free-stream pressure gradient. It is ...

Abstract: A series of measurements have been made on a transonic annular cascade. The cascade which represents the tip section of a compressor fan blade has an inlet Mach number of 1.18. By the use ...

Abstract: The paper addresses the selection of new pumps as part of a major redevelopment of a large scale urban water‐distribution system in which the locations of existing and planned pumping stations are already established. The ...

Abstract: The melt rate of Antarctic ice shelves is of key importance for rising sea levels and future climate scenarios. Recent observations beneath Larsen C Ice Shelf revealed an ocean boundary layer that was highly turbulent and ...

Abstract: Transient heat transfer measurement techniques have long been used in two-dimensional stationary cascade tests designed to model turbine conditions used in Oxford. More recently, experiments studying ...
