Drag Calculations for Vehicles in Very Long Tubes From Turbulent Flow Theory
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)Fundamental turbulent flow techniques are used to examine the annular fluid flow occurring in an idealized model of a high speed ground transportation system. The model consists of a smooth ... -
Review: Turbulent Developing Pipe Flow
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)Experimental results on turbulent developing pipe flow are reviewed. Upstream conditions are shown to have a large effect, in particular on the development of the velocity profile. It is ... -

Optimum Strut-Configuration for Downstream Annular Diffusers With Variable Swirling Inlet Flow
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)Using three conical wall annular diffusers, geometries of struts mounted at the inlet tube were studied which were suitable for both the swirling inlet flow and the nonswirling inlet flow. ... -
Forces on Staggered Airfoil Cascades in Unsteady In-Phase Motion
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)We consider incompressible potential flow through a cascade of staggered thin airfoils in general, unsteady, in-phase motion. With the assumptions of the Kutta condition and linearized wakes, ... -
Two-Dimensional Performance Analysis and Design of MHD Channels
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)A two-dimensional model for MHD channel design and analysis has been developed for three different modes of operation: velocity, Mach number, and pressure. Given the distribution of any of these ... -
A Prediction Method for Planar Diffuser Flows
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)A method is presented for computation of performance of two-dimensional (planar) diffusers with steady turbulent inflow of an incompressible fluid. Previous methods can predict one regime of flow. ... -
Developing Region of Laminar Jets With Parabolic Exit Velocity Profiles
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)An approximate solution to the velocity distribution in a submerged axisymmetric, laminar jet which issues from a long tube is presented. The solution is a modification of that of Okabe [17] ... -
A Comparison of Cold and Reacting Flows Around a Bluff-Body Flame Stabilizer
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)A confined oblique flame anchored on a bluff object was considered in a homogeneous propane/air mixture. A laser velocimeter employing a unique single-particle processor was used to quantify the ... -
The Stability of Pumping Systems—The 1980 Freeman Scholar Lecture
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)A review is presented of the types of instabilities which are encountered in pumping systems of technological interest. These include axial and centrifugal compression systems, pumping systems ... -
Historical Review of Real-Fluid Isentropic Flow Models
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)The analysis of steady, one-dimensional, isentropic flow of nonideal compressible fluids is simplified greatly by the use of an approximate model for the PV or Pρ relation, this relation being ... -
Cavitation Inception Observations on Six Axisymmetric Headforms
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)Cavitation inception observations on a series of axisymmetric headforms were made in the DTNSRDC 36-in. water tunnel. Cavitation inception observed on headforms with natural flow transition is ... -
Viscous Effects in the Inception of Cavitation
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)The inception of cavitation in the steady flow of liquids around bodies is seen to depend upon the real fluid flow around the bodies as well as the supply of nucleating cavitation sources—or ... -
Cavitation Inception Tests on Axisymmetric Headforms
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)Six axisymmetric headforms were tested in the 350-mm dia water tunnel at China Ship Scientific Research Center (CSSRC) for observation and measurement of cavitation inception. Among them, three ... -
Inception of Cavitation From a Backward Facing Step
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)Cavitation inception measurements are reported for flow past a downstream facing step with the height of the step varying from about 0.4 to 5 percent of the forebody diameter. The forebody ... -

A New Probe for Measurement of Velocity and Wall Shear Stress in Unsteady, Reversing Flow
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1981)Separated turbulent flows exhibit instantaneous reversals of flow direction which make measurement of the velocity field extremely difficult. A three-wire heat-tracer technique has been employed ...
