Stress Distribution In Splined Shafts In Torsion By The Membrane Analogy, Charles L. Edwards

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this investigation is to determine torsional shearing stress distribution in various shapes of shafts. The project will include shafts with circular boundaries. No attempt will be made to show the relation between stress and applied torque"--Preface, page iii.

A Useful Farm-Made Roller, V E. Western

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

A very serviceable compacting roller can be constructed at little expense by using discarded truck tyres.

The roller described here has an overall width of 5 ft. 3 in. and carries seven 9.00 x 24 semi-trailer tyres which had been discarded when the treads were worn smooth.

The Determination Of The Heat Transfer Film Coefficients Of Internally Heated And Twisted Strips, Karpurapu Venkata Apparao

Masters Theses

"As the demand for power supply is increasing, the power from nuclear fission is assuming an important role in the field of power production. The enormous quantity of heat generated during the fission process can be utilized for the generation of power. To get maximum advantage out of the fission process, the fission material must be fabricated into a unit of proper shape to permit the control of the process and safe removal of heat generated. This unit, composed of fuel elements is known as the reactor core and is one of the major concerns in nuclear power development.

The Effect Of Boundry Layer Control By Passing Fluid Through Transverse Slots On Heat Transfer From A Pipe, Perakatte Joseph George

Masters Theses

"The object of this work is an experimental investigation into the possibility of obtaining an increase in the forced convection heat transfer coefficient for a pipe by passing the fluid through narrow transverse slots cut in the pipe, and thereby altering the boundary layer pattern.

Since the greatest barrier to the flow of heat from a solid to liquid exists at the boundary layer, it can be expected that any device which will alter the boundary layer pattern will alter the heat transfer coefficient. When mass crosses a boundary layer in a direction perpendicular to the main motion of the …

An Experimental Study Of The Effects Of Additives On The Collapsibility Of Carbon Dioxode-Sodium Silicate Bonded Foundry Cores, Robert G. Liptai

Masters Theses

"Every foundry is searching for methods and tools to raise product quality and production while lowering cost. In early 1954 published articles on the new carbon dioxide-sodium silicate process of core hardening began to stir the imagination of most of the foundries throughout the United States, This process has probably claimed more space in the foundry journals than any other subject, hailed by some as a cure-all and dismissed by others as unsatisfactory.

The list of advantages of this process was impressive, but anyone associated with the process was confronted with daily problems that had to be solved regardless of …

Temperature Distribution In A Semi-Infinite Solid As A Function Of The Input Heat Flux, Lloyd Carl Laciny

Masters Theses

"In this thesis the problem of varying heat flux into a semi-infinite solid initially at zero temperature is investigated. Varying heat flux means that the heat transferred to the solid by its surroundings is a function of time; in this particular problem it is chosen to be an exponential function of time. A semi-infinite solid is one which is bounded by only one plane.

This subject has achieved considerable importance in the field of space technology. A body in space is beyond the realm of aerodynamic heating and non-uniform skin temperatures reached as a result of radiation from a high …

Heat Transfer In A Vortex Flow Metal To Air, Elisha Rachovitsky

Masters Theses

"In this study heat transfer in a vortex flow has been investigated experimentally and analyzed qualitatively.

Air was forced through a Ranque tube in order to get a swirling turbulent flow in its "hot" section. The test section, having a diameter of .355 inches and a length of 27.5 inches, was heated by an induction coil.

Three types of flow were under investigation: a linear turbulent flow, a vortex uniflow and a mixed vortex-linear turbulent flow.

The experiments covered a range of tube-wall temperature from 570 to 900 Deg. R and inlet pressure to the vortex generator ranged from 25 …

A Method Of Fuel Testing In A Cfr Engine, George R. Baumgartner

Masters Theses

"At the present time, only a very small fraction of motor fuels produced for domestic use in the United States contain any alcohol in their blends. Soma foreign markets, notably the Philippine Islands and South American Countries use high proportions of alcohol in their motor fuel blends. Special purpose fuels in the United States which have alcohol blended with other compounds, have been used for engines from which maximum horsepower output is imperative. An example of this type of motor fuel blend might be found in the competitive motor sports involving motorcycles, stock automotive equipment, and special racing equipment.

Bulk Handling Of Superphosphate, H G. Cariss

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

A MAJOR factor in our agricultural production is the outlay for fertilisers, including the cost of their application to the land.

Any means which can be employed to reduce these costs are therefore of extreme importance to the State's agriculture.

The bulk-handling of fertilisers could be one way of reducing these costs to the farmer.
