Preliminary Design of Centrifugal Impellers Using Optimization Techniques
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1994)The paper proposes a design method which may be used to evaluate the detailed geometry of an impeller (handling compressible and perfect fluid) from a prescribed mean streamline velocity ... -
Two-Phase Velocity Distributions and Overall Performance of a Centrifugal Slurry Pump
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1994)Back-scattering LDV has been used to investigate particulate two-phase flow in a centrifugal slurry pump. The measurements reported here have been made with a dilute suspension of 0.8 mm glass ... -
Electromagnetic Pump With Thin Metal Walls
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1994)This paper treats a liquid-metal flow in a rectangular duct with a strong, uniform, transverse magnetic field and with thin metal walls, except for two finite-length, perfectly conducting ... -
Flow Characteristics of a Centrifugal Pump
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1994)Measurements of velocity have been obtained in a centrifugal pump in terms of angle-resolved values in the impeller passages, the volute, the inlet and exit ducts and are presented in absolute ... -
Power Augmentation Effects of a Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine With a Tip Vane—Part 2: Flow Visualization
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1994)This paper presents a discussion of the physics of the flow discussed in our first report (Shimizu, Y. et al., 1990). By visualizing the flow around the tip vane, the following results were ... -
Ship’s Propulsion Mechanism of Two-Stage “Weis-Fogh” Type
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1994)The dynamic properties of a ship’s two-stage “Weis-Fogh” type propulsion mechanism are experimentally and numerically investigated. In order to study the effects of the interaction of the two ... -
Average Physical Parameters in an Air-Water Two-Phase Flow in a Small, Square-Sectioned Channel
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1994)This experimental study focuses on an adiabatic two-phase air-water flow generated in a small, horizontal, 6.35 mm square channel. Pressure and temperature were near standard conditions. Experimental ... -
