Lift on a Rotating Porous Cylinder
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)Two-dimensional flow past a rotating circular cylinder with uniform suction at the surface is considered. The method of solution follows closely that used by Glauert [1] and the problem is ... -
A Note on the Phase Relationships Involved in the Whirling Instability in Tube Arrays
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)The quasi-steady, displacement dependent, whirling instability model of Connors [1] and Blevins [2] is re-examined to clarify the phase relationships involved. In particular, conditions required ... -
Prediction of the Three-Dimensional Velocity Field of a Deflected Turbulent Jet
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)The paper describes the results of a finite-difference solution for the three-dimensional flow field generated by a round turbulent jet deflected by a main stream normal to the jet axis. The ... -
Derivation of Turbulent Transport Coefficients From Turbulent Parameters in Isotropic Turbulence
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)A survey of experimental work on mass, momentum, and energy transport at the axis of pipes relates the ratio of turbulent diffusivity to kinematic viscosity, ε/ν, to the flow Reynolds number. ... -
A Three Dimensional Density Field Measurement of Transonic Flow From a Square Nozzle Using Holographic Interferometry
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1977)The three dimensional static density field was measured for transonic flow from a square nozzle using holographic interferometry. These measurements are presented in order to show the efficiency ... -
