Investigation Into the Likelihood of Thermal Fatigue Damage to Furnace and Superheater Tubes Caused by On-Load Water Deslagging
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)Boilers operating on brown coal from the Morwell Open Cut in Victoria require frequent off-load cleaning outages because of severe ash deposition on heating surfaces. The problem has been ... -
Sodium Sulphate Formation and Deposition in Marine Gas Turbines
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)The rate of formation of gaseous sodium sulphate from sodium chloride and the combustion of a sulphur-bearing fuel has been investigated in a controlled mixing history combustor. The reaction ... -
Steam-Turbine-Driven Circulators for High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactors—Part II: Development
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)The High-Temperature Gas-Cooled reactor is characterized by integration of the primary coolant circuit and components within a Prestressed Concrete Pressure Vessel. This concept requires particular ... -
High-Temperature Corrosion in Gas Turbines and Steam Boilers by Fuel Impurities: IV—Evaluation of Silicon and Magnesium-Silicon as Corrosion Inhibitors
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)The corrosion rates of Udimet™ 500 in a variety of sodium sulfate-silica-vanadium pentoxide and sodium sulfate-magnesium sulfate-silica-vanadium pentoxide slag compositions were measured electrochemically ... -
Transient Considerations of Flat-Plate Solar Collectors
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)The effects of thermal capacitance in the modeling of the performance of a flat plate solar collector have often been neglected because of the computation involved. But because the solar ... -
Ash in Gas Turbines Burning Magnesium-Treated Residual Fuel
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)The equilibrium ash composition in a magnesium treated residual fuel-fired gas turbine is considered in detail. The stability of the condensed phases of interest—MgO, MgSO4 , and the magnesium ... -

The Containment of Disk Burst Fragments by Cylindrical Shells
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)Tests and analysis show that containment of missile-like steel disk fragments by a steel cylindrical shell is a sequential two-stage process. Stage 1 involves inelastic impact and transfer of ... -
The Cause of Tone Generation by Aero-Engine Fans at High Subsonic Tip Speeds and the Effect of Forward Speed
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)Modern aero-engine fans (without inlet guide vanes) produce a tone at blade passing frequency by interacting with the inlet flow distortion. Because the distortion is altered by forward motion ... -
Energy in East Europe Through 1980
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)Eastern Europe is the world’s largest and most tightly knit multinational economic bloc. It is largest in population although its per capita energy output and industrial production lag considerably ... -
Estimating Precision in Heat Rate Testing
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)Obtaining an estimate of the precision realized in heat rate testing is discussed in this paper. Heat rate precision depends largely on the scatter of the most important measurements, so we ... -
The Correlation Between Droplet Steam Structure and Steam Turbine Blading Erosion
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)A theoretical study of the correlation between droplet stream structure and steam turbine blading erosion is presented. To this end a simplified description of the motion of the individual ... -
Reduction of NOx by EGR in a Compact Combuster
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1974)The effect of EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) on the emission of NOx , CO, and HC from two compact, low-emission burners sized for use in automotive Rankine-cycle engines was studied experimentally. ... -
