Abstract: Those features of the design of the interconnection between a large steam turbine and the condenser which may affect the plant heat rate or turbine reliability are reviewed. The performance ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study to predict turbomachine blade erosion by particle laden flows. Using statistical methods, this work combines particle trajectory calculations with ...

Abstract: here is a vast amount of information about the atmosphere available from instruments on board satellites. One example is the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) instrument, which measures radiances emitted ...

Abstract: The importance of flow distribution and stability leaving the impeller of a centrifugal compressor is discussed. Experiments on the flow in converging, parallel, and diffusing channels, representative ...

Abstract: The authors scale the five-mode model introduced by Lorenz and Krishnamurthy and show how explicit solutions may be obtained in the limit of small Rossby number by using the method of multiple scales. They thus obtain a ...
