Abstract: A type of fiber thermocouple is applied to a brush seal in order to obtain the temperature of the bristlerotor friction zone. Using a brush seal test rig, the temperature measurements utilizing a fiber thermocouple, infrared ...

Abstract: Abstract. To provide a practical design basis for the compressor bleed system design, this paper uses numerical simulation and rig tests to evaluate the influence of bleed system design parameters on bleed performance. The ...

Abstract: The goal of this study is to develop a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling approach to better estimate the blood flow dynamics in the bundles of the hollow fiber membrane based medical devices (i.e., blood oxygenators, ...
