Review of Centrifugal Compressor’s Application and Development
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper historically describes the application and development of the centrifugal compressor from the very beginning of its introduction until today. It focuses on selected practical and ...
Numerical Experiments with the Adjoint of a Nonhydrostatic Mesoscale Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: For the purpose of assimilation of radar data into a nonhydrostatic mesoscale forecast model, the adjoint method is considered. For the case of dry convection, a set of identical twin experiments shows that it is possible ...
Broadly Distributed and Locally Enhanced Turbulent Mixing in a Tidal Estuary
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Spatial variations of vertical turbulent mixing along a stretch of the Hudson River estuary are examined with focus on the vicinity of a ?hydraulic control point? at the George Washington Bridge at which the cross section ...
On the Dynamics of Elastic Multibody Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Due to the highly complex structure of the equations of motion, there exists a basic demand for procedures with minimum effort. This is achieved by the projection method applied to systems ...
Entropy and Potential Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The theoretical investigations presented in this paper show that the various definitions of potential temperatures, such as the potential temperature of dry air and of moist air, the equivalent potential temperature, the ...
Reaction Kinetics of Pressurized Entrained Flow Coal Gasification: Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of a 5 MW Siemens Test Gasifier
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Modeling pressurized entrained flow gasification of solid fuels plays an important role in the development of integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants and other gasification applications. A better ...
High-Frequency Single-Board Doppler Minisodar for Precipitation Measurements. Part I: Rainfall and Hail
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-frequency Doppler sodar for precipitation measurements has been developed. Such a Doppler sodar (6?20 kHz) can almost always measure precipitation and turbulence spectra simultaneously. Therefore, the mean vertical ...
Investigation of Different Operation Strategies to Provide Balance Energy With an Industrial Combined Heat and Power Plant Using Dynamic Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intermittency of renewable electricity generation poses a challenge to thermal power plants. While power plants in the public sector see a decrease in operating hours, the utilization of industrial power plants is mostly ...
Microstructure Observations of Turbulent Mixing in a Partially Mixed Estuary. Part II: Salt Flux and Stress
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Turbulent mixing in the water column was observed with a microstructure profiler in the Hudson River estuary during two cruises in summer and fall 1995. The focus is on the estimation of turbulent salt flux and turbulent ...
Microstructure Observations of Turbulent Mixing in a Partially Mixed Estuary. Part I: Dissipation Rate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Variations of turbulent mixing in the water column and in the benthic boundary layer were observed with a microstructure profiler in the Hudson River estuary during two cruises in summer and fall of 1995. Variability ...
