Behavior of Air Bubbles in an Axial-Flow Pump Impeller
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)Motion of air bubbles in a high-specific-speed axial-flow pump impeller was analyzed on the basis of measured streak lines of air bubbles in the impeller. The results were compared with those ... -
Near-Wall Similarity in a Pressure-Driven Three-Dimensional Turbulent Boundary Layer
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)Ten of eleven three-dimensional near-wall similarity models identified in the literature are evaluated with direct wall shear, velocity field, and pressure gradient data from a three-dimensional ... -
Measurement of a Recirculating, Two-Dimensional, Turbulent Flow and Comparison to Turbulence Model Predictions. II: Transient Case
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)Measurements of transient water flows are performed in a 1/15-scale Fast Flux Test Facility nuclear reactor outlet plenum. During a repeated inlet-flow coastdown transient, measurements are made ... -
Similar Solutions of Brinkman Equations for a Two-Dimensional Plane Jet in a Porous Medium
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)The similar solution of the Brinkman equations for flow of a plane jet issuing into a fluid saturated porous medium is studied. The velocity field is determined in the plane of physical as ... -
Calibration of a Heat Flux Gage for Skin Friction Measurement

Measuring Particle Transverse Velocity Using an LDA
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)Four problems encountered in making transverse velocity measurements with an LDA are alignment of the optical system, velocity bias correction, avoidance of incomplete signal bias, and collecting ... -
Influence of Base Slant on the Wake Structure and Drag of Road Vehicles
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)The time averaged wake structure of a realistically dimensioned quarter scale automobile model was studied in a wind tunnel on the basis of flow visualization, wake surveys, force and pressure ... -
The Flow Past a Surface-Mounted Obstacle
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)The length of the recirculating region past a two dimensional obstacle was investigated experimentally with a single hot wire. The width (W) of the obstacle could be changed in multiple values ... -
Discussion: “Behavior of Air Bubbles in an Axial-Flow Pump Impeller” (Murakami, M., and Minemura, K., 1983, ASME J. Fluids Eng., 105, pp. 277–283)

Decreasing the Side Wall Contamination in Wind Tunnels
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)To study boundary layers in the transitional Reynolds number regime, the useful spanwise and streamwise extent of wind tunnels is often limited by turbulent fluid emanating from the side walls. ... -
Appraisal of Universal Wake Numbers From Data for Roughened Circular Cylinders
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)An analysis was carried out to check whether certain existing universal wake numbers can characterize the cross-flow around roughened circular cylinders in transitional regimes. The results confirmed ... -
Measurement of a Recirculating, Two-Dimensional, Turbulent Flow and Comparison to Turbulence Model Predictions. I: Steady State Case
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)Turbulent flow measurements have been performed in a two-dimensional flow cell which is a 1/15-scale model of the Fast Flux Test Facility nuclear reactor outlet plenum. In a steady water flow, ... -
The Buckling of a Vertical Liquid Column
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)This paper documents the sinuous flow of a vertical water column which impinges on a horizontal surface. It is shown experimentally that the solid obstacle buckles the column into a plane ... -

A Theory of the Wilson Line for Steam at Low Pressures
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)An algebraic method for determining the onset of condensation—the position of the Wilson line on a Mollier diagram—in steam at low pressures is presented. The method is based on the assumptions ... -
Prediction of Aerodynamically Induced Vibrations in Turbomachinery Blading
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)To predict the aerodynamically forced response of an airfoil, an energy balance between the unsteady aerodynamic work and the energy dissipated through the airfoil structural and aerodynamic ... -
Effects of Entrained Air on the Performance of a Horizontal Axial-Flow Pump
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)The performance of an axial-flow pump was investigated under air-admitting conditions and the results were compared with those obtained for radial-flow pumps investigated in our previous studies. ... -
Fluid Transient Analysis in Pipelines With Nonuniform Liquid Density
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1983)A fluid transient in a system with steady nonuniform liquid density can be analyzed by a single density computer program by modification of the input parameters. These changes allow the program ... -
Fixed Wake Theory for Vertical Axis Wind Turbines
