Load Level Tuning of Governor Gains for Suboptimal Speed Control of Hydroelectric Installations
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)Present speed control governors for hydroelectric installations employ constant gain settings. This paper develops appropriate gain functions of load level for optimal (deadbeat sense) transient ... -
Parallel Porous Plate Channel Flow Characteristics Resulting From Nonuniform Entry Velocity Profiles
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)The author has found a class of entry velocity profiles that develop into the Raithby fully developed second solution for flow in a parallel porous plate channel with strong suction. The entry ... -
Inviscid Approximations for Wall Jet-Receiver Interaction
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)Potential flow, control volume, and frozen vorticity models have been used to analyze the wall jet-receiver system. The potential flow model predicts well the extent of the region of influence ... -
Direct Measurement of High-Pressure Gas Density With an Ion-Chamber Densitometer
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)The dependence of ion-chamber current on the density of the filling gas has been investigated, experimentally and analytically, to explore the use of an ion chamber as a high-pressure gas ... -

Applications of Fluid Mechanics to Wind Engineering—A Freeman Scholar Lecture
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)Wind has always had a strong influence, both unfavorable and favorable, upon man and his activities. Within the last decade needs for treatment of wind effects from an engineering point-of-view ... -
Study of Flow and Thrust in Nozzle-Flapper Valves
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)The Navier-Stokes equations and the equation of continuity describing the flow in the flat-faced nozzle-flapper valve are numerically solved by the iterative relaxation method and the effect of ... -
The Prediction of Swirl and Inlet Turbulence Kinetic Energy Effects on Confined Jet Mixing
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)Mixing of a turbulent jet with a coaxial slower-moving secondary stream in a constant diameter tube was investigated. Of special interests were the effects of swirling the jet and initial ... -
Momentum Integral for Curved Shear Layers
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)If the exact metric influence of curvature is retained and the displacement effect neglected, it can be shown that the momentum integral for two-dimensional, curved boundary-layer flows is ... -
Stall in Rotating Two-Dimensional Diffusers
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975) -
New Analytical Method for Calculating Water Level Oscillations in a Simple Surge Tank Under Load Rejection
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)A new analytical method is presented, allowing direct, easy and accurate computation of the nonlinear waterlevel oscillations occurring in a simple surge tank under instantaneous load rejection. ... -
Perturbation Solutions for Steady One-Dimensional Waterhammer Waves
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1975)The steady-state form of a plane waterhammer wave is considered in order to illustrate the application of perturbation methods to fluid transients. An asymptotic solution is obtained for small ... -
