The Influence of Swirl on the Flow Characteristics of a Reciprocating Piston-Cylinder Assembly
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1980)Measurements of three orthogonal components of mean velocity and the rms values of the corresponding velocity fluctuations have been obtained by laser-Doppler anemometry in the axisymmetric swirling ... -
Two Aspects of Cavitation Damage in the Incubation Zone: Scaling by Energy Considerations and Leading Edge Damage
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1980)This study focused on two aspects of the cavitation damage problem, namely an energy approach to the scaling of cavitation damage in the incubation zone and damage near the leading edge of ... -
Aerodynamic Performance of a Centrifugal Compressor With Vaned Diffusers
