Measurement Of The Velocity And Temperature Profiles Of Air Swirling Through A Conical Shaped Nozzle, Stephen Abner Thompson Jan 1966

Measurement Of The Velocity And Temperature Profiles Of Air Swirling Through A Conical Shaped Nozzle, Stephen Abner Thompson

Masters Theses

"A study was conducted to determine the velocity and temperature distributions in swirling flow of air through a converging nozzle. Radial traverses were taken at three axial positions with a specially designed pitot tube constructed of hypodermic needles. The most significant finding was the large magnitude of the radial velocity component. A combination of reversed axial flow along the nozzle axis, and an outward flow near the nozzle surface was also experienced. An increase of temperature with increasing radial position may be attributed to the Ranque-Hilsch effect"--Abstract, page ii.


Effect Of Artificial Roughness On Convection, Lee W. Burford Jan 1966

Effect Of Artificial Roughness On Convection, Lee W. Burford

Masters Theses

"Considerable work has been done in recent years, and is still being done, to find ways of increasing the heat transfer rate in fluid heat exchangers. One particular type of potential heat exchanger that has been studied analytically, as well as experimentally, is the use of artificially roughened tubing.

The test sections used in this experiment consisted of four aluminum pipes, three of which have been artificially roughened internally by machining ninety- degree V-shape grooves along the axis of the pipes. The grooves were 30/1000, 60/1000, and 90/1000 inches in depth. The remaining pipe was a smooth test section with …


A Study Of The Effect Of A Square Cutout On The Moment Distribution In A Simply Supported Rectangular Plate Under Normal Concentrated Load By The Moiré Fringe Method, Taher F. Raja Jan 1966

A Study Of The Effect Of A Square Cutout On The Moment Distribution In A Simply Supported Rectangular Plate Under Normal Concentrated Load By The Moiré Fringe Method, Taher F. Raja

Masters Theses

"Plexiglass models were used to produce Moiré fringes for two different geometrical shapes. The moments in the case of a simply supported rectangular plate with a normal concentrated load were found using the Moiré fringes which directly give the gradients at all points of the surface of the model. The variation of the moments due to a square cutout was also studied by this method. As a check for the experimental method, the analytical solution was presented for the plate without a cut-out. The Moiré method yields moments to an accuracy of 3 to 15 percent, however, care must be …


A Study Of Modified Plug Designs For A Globe Valve, Robert W. Wagner Jan 1966

A Study Of Modified Plug Designs For A Globe Valve, Robert W. Wagner

Masters Theses

"This thesis presents an empirical study of the characteristics of a cylindrical skirted disk valve used as a flow regulating device. Holes were drilled in two separate removable cylinders, which, when respectively attached to the valve plug adapter, provided control of the flow rate. These cylinders could be moved to permit exposure of more or less flow area by means of the valve stem and crank mechanism. At the closed position of the valve no holes were available for flow within the differential pressure zone of the valve, while at the full-open position all the drilled holes were within the …


Approximate Solution Of The Momentum And Energy Equations For Partially Ionized Argon, Sir-Hoi Chen Jan 1966

Approximate Solution Of The Momentum And Energy Equations For Partially Ionized Argon, Sir-Hoi Chen

Masters Theses

"Based on available experimental data, the transport properties of partially ionized argon gas have been determined by solving the integral equations of momentum and energy conservation by an approximate method. The momentum and the energy conservation integral equations are solved simultaneously by an iteration method by assuming both parabolic and cubic velocity and temperature profiles separately. The results are compared with the case of linear velocity and temperature profiles"--Abstract, page iii.


Temperature And Stress Distributions Produced In Long Circular Cylinders Cooled By Emission Of Thermal Radiation, Robert S. Pritchard Dec 1965

Temperature And Stress Distributions Produced In Long Circular Cylinders Cooled By Emission Of Thermal Radiation, Robert S. Pritchard

Mechanical Engineering ETDs

This study involves the determination of the temperature and stress distributions produced in long circumferentially symmetric circular cylinders cooled by emission of thermal radiation from the lateral surface. Temperature and strain responses obtained from an experimental model are presented for a set of parameters which correspond to the highest strain level which could be accurately determined with the strain gages. These responses are in good agreement with the results obtained by solution of an appropriate mathematical model. Temperature responses obtained from the same model, but having a higher initial temperature, are also presented and compared with analytical results. Reasonably good …

Drag Forces On Magnetically Accelerated Particles, Darrell Winterton Walker Sep 1965

Drag Forces On Magnetically Accelerated Particles, Darrell Winterton Walker

Theses and Dissertations

The object of this investigation was to determine the effect of acceleration on the drag of spheres as it differs from the steady state case. Steady state drag applies to the force acting on a single sphere moving at constant velocity through an infinite, continuous, incompressible, turbulence free fluid. Extensive experimentation has quite thoroughly documented the steady state drag characteristics of spheres. A dimensionless parameter associated with the drag force is sometimes used to correlate drag characteristics.
