A Radial Diffuser Using Incompressible Flow Between Narrowly Spaced Disks
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)Owing to the geometric limitations of certain internal flow systems, the use of a conical or rectangular diffuser for the recovery of kinetic energy as static pressure is often impossible. ... -
Effects of Cavitation on Periodic Wakes Behind Symmetric Wedges
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)Measurements of the shedding frequency and spacing of cavitating vortex street wakes have been made for four wedge models having apex angles of 15, 30, 60, and 90 deg. The wake pattern made ... -
Radial Flow Without Swirl Between Parallel Disks Having Both Supersonic and Subsonic Regions
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)A theoretical and experimental study is made of turbulent radial flow between parallel disks with choked conditions at the channel inlet. Supersonic flow is found to exist for some distance ... -
Discussion: “Dynamics of Heat Exchangers and Their Models” (Thal-Larsen, Herman, 1960, ASME J. Basic Eng., 82, pp. 489–500)
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1960) -
An Ion-Drag Thrust Bearing
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)A means of pressurizing thrust bearings through the use of ions and high electric fields is investigated theoretically and experimentally. Theoretically, the mechanism is attributed to corona ... -
Errors Due to a Representation of Source Flow in an Electrical Analogy
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)The necessarily finite-size electrode used to represent a source flow in an analog solution is usually circular in shape. The resulting distortion of the true potential map introduces errors ... -
The Wall Effect in Cavity Flow
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)A nonlinear theory for the calculation of the flow field of an oblique flat plate under blockage condition is given using the techniques of integral equations. Numerical results are obtained ... -
Influence of Oblique Channel Ends on Screw-Pump Performance
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)Congruent velocity distributions in parallel channel cross sections are assumed in conventional flow theories for screw pumps. That assumption leads to nonuniform pressure distributions along the ... -
The Laminar Boundary Layer on a Rotating Circular Arc Blade
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)The primary objective was to develop an exact solution to the simplest possible laminar boundary-layer problem for a curved rotating blade. It was formulated initially so that the results might ... -

(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966) -
The Law of the Wake and Plane of Symmetry Flows in Three-Dimensional Turbulent Boundary Layers
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)Coles’ model incorporating the law of the wall and the law of the wake, proposed for two and three-dimensional turbulent boundary-layer flows, is examined for the special case of plane of ... -
A Pressure Index for Predicting the Effect of Flow Profiles on Orifice Meter Performance
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)The influence of upstream non-normal velocity distributions on orifice meters is studied experimentally. Several parameters, based on the velocity distribution, were found to correlate with the ... -
Dimensionless Parameter Reliability Analysis and Application to Mechanical Creep
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)A formal procedure is outlined for establishing a priori functional relationships between the probability-of-success measure of reliability and dimensionless parameter combinations of the pertinent ... -

Effect of Plastic Deformation on the Strain Energy Release Rate in a Centrally Notched Plate Subjected to Uniaxial Tension
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)This paper presents theoretical studies on the effect of plastic deformation on the strain energy release rate, G, of a plate under uniaxial tension with a central propagating crack. The linear ... -
An Investigation of the Influence of the Boundary Layers on the Performance of Centrifugal-Compressor Impellers
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)Under certain conditions, poor performance of a centrifugal compressor can be attributed to irregularities in the velocity distribution at the entrance of the diffuser which may be caused by ... -
The Effect of the Rotation of the Stress Axes on the Yield Criterion of Prestrained Materials
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)The yield locus of a prestrained material can be based on different systems of combined stress, such as biaxial tension and combined tension and shear. No matter what the combined stresses ... -
Hydrodynamic Lubrication of Partial Porous Metal Bearings
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1966)Partial porous metal bearings are analyzed to determine their performance during steady-state operating conditions with a full film of lubricant. The pressure distribution is determined by a ... -
