An Inverse Inviscid Method for the Design of Quasi-Three-Dimensional Turbomachinery Cascades
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)The calculation of the blade shape, when the desired velocity distribution is imposed, has been the object of numerous investigations in the past. The object of this paper is to present a ... -
A Unifying Method for Sizing Throttling Valves Under Laminar or Transitional Flow Conditions
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)The mass flow passing through a given valve will decrease in Reynolds number ranges below approximately 10,000 due to the transition from fully developed turbulent to laminar flow. The objective ... -
Real Gas Effects for Compressible Nozzle Flows
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)Numerical simulation of compressible nozzle flows of real gas with or without the addition of heat is presented. A generalized real gas method, using an upwind scheme and curvilinear coordinates, ... -
A New Approach to the Dynamic Parameter Estimation of a Viscoelastic System
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)This work involves the study of newtonian transitory flow regimes in a rigid tube that has been extended to include an elastic enclosure. Three different techniques have been applied and ... -
The Accuracy of a Three-Component Laser Doppler Velocimeter System Using a Single-Lens Approach
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)An analysis of the effects of misalignment on the on-axis velocity component measurements made with a three-component LDV system using two colors and five beams issuing from a single lens is ... -
A Numerical Study on the Generation Mechanism of Turbulence-Driven Secondary Flow in a Square Duct
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)The generation mechanism of turbulence-driven secondary flows in a square duct is numerically investigated in the present study by using an anisotropic low-Reynolds-number k–ε turbulence model. ... -
A Relative Examination of CD — Re Relationships Used in Particle Trajectory Calculations
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993) -
A Theoretical Analysis of Rotating Cavitation in Inducers
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)Rotating cavitation was analyzed using an actuator disk method. Quasi-steady pressure performance of the impeller, mass flow gain factor, and cavitation compliance of the cavity were taken into ... -
Flow Behavior in Thin-Gapped Diamond-Shaped Channels With Pins

Incompressible Fluid Flow Through Pipes Packed With Spheres at Low Dimension Ratios
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)This technical note reports the results of the last of a series of three studies of the flow of incompressible fluids through pipes packed with spheres. In the first of these studies, published ... -
An Investigation of Nucleating Flows of Steam in a Cascade of Turbine Blading
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)During the course of expansion in turbines steam first supercools and then nucleates to become a wet mixture. To reproduce turbine nucleating conditions realistically requires a supply of ... -
A Simple and Accurate Method of Calibrating X-Probes
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)This paper presents an improved method of calibrating hot-film X-probes in incompressible flow. The yaw response of a hot-film X-probe was investigated for different velocities and found to be ... -
Application of the k–ε Turbulence Model to the Simulation of a Fully Pulsed Free Air Jet
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)The work describes application of the k–ε turbulence model to a fully pulsed air jet. The standard model failed to predict the change in slope of the velocity decay where the jet changes ... -
Hydraulic Characteristics of Mixed Convection in a Heated Vertical Pipe
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)By studying the integrated governing equations for mixed convection in a vertical pipe heated with constant wall heat flux, several concepts (or misconcepts) regarding convection mode and flow ... -
Modeling and Computation of Flow in a Passage With 360-Degree Turning and Multiple Airfoils
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)The spiral casing of a hydraulic turbine is a complex flow device which contains a passage of 360-degree turning and multiple elements of airfoils (the so-called distributor). A three-dimensional ... -
Evaluation and Comparison of Bounding Techniques for Convection-Diffusion Problems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1993)The effects of bounding the skew upwind and the second-order upwind discretization schemes for the convection terms in convection-diffusion transport equations have been studied. Earlier studies ... -
