An Investigation Of A Constant Velocity Paper Unwinding Device, Jerry L. Gilmore

Masters Theses

"This thesis outlines one approach in designing a system which involves a second order nonlinear differential equation. A large number of variables are involved in this analysis. Therefore, there are many solutions to the problem but only a few of these will satisfy all required conditions. The analysis will be aided by the use of an analog computer. This computer can be manipulated to obtain optimum values for the different variables.

The computer results are presented in graphical form. Reasonable values for the different variables are obtained from these graphs.

The characteristics of the unwinding device were simulated on the …

The Design, Construction, And Calibration Of An Apparatus To Determine The Thermal Conductivity Of Solids, Alan Edward Stephenson

Masters Theses

"Many pieces of equipment have been designed to determine the thermal conductivity of solids. They all, however, depend on the application of Fourier's equation of heat conduction in solids to determine the thermal conductivity. The apparatus used in this investigation is a modification of the guarded hot plate method used by the American Society for Testing Materials. Operation of the device is given in a step by step procedure both as a guide for others and also to show how it was operated during calibration of the apparatus. Data obtained in the calibration is given in tabular and graphical form …

A Study Of Rotational Critical Speed For A Multi-Mass System, Richard K. Brockmann

Masters Theses

"The object of this thesis is to demonstrate, by use of an IBM-1620 digital computer, a fast efficient method for locating natural frequencies of multi-mass rotational systems. Stress and deflection characteristics are examined at these frequencies also.

The shafts considered in this thesis are simply supported and symmetrically loaded with five concentrated masses. These five masses are placed at increments of 10 inches on a 60 inch shaft. The variable to be examined is shaft diameter, which is varied from 0.2 inch to 1 inch by increments of 0.2 inch. The effect of shaft weight, which is a function of …

A Study Of The Angular Velocity In A Liquid Induced By A Vortex In An Emptying Container, James Paul Hartman

Masters Theses

"Previously a limited amount of investigation has been done to describe the rotational motion of fluid in a draining tank. To date tank design has been based on trial and error, since the physical mechanisms of actual draining have not been recognized. This investigation has been made to develop a technique for the measurement of the motion of the fluid during the draining process and to present the results of the observed surface velocity of the liquid as a function of depth of fluid and its distance from the center of the vortex core. Many previous investigators of vortex behavior …

An Investigation Of Optimum Journal Bearings., Kulin Purshotam Maskai

Masters Theses

"Not much has been done towards calculating the "Optimum Bearing" from the point of view of maximum load capacity or minimum friction. It has been found that there 1 is not much difference in the "Optimum Bearing" proportions, as calculated, considering either minimum friction or maximum load capacity

Journal bearings are commonly used and they play a very important role in reducing friction and wear. Engineers use past experience in choosing a bearing for the given conditions. A bearing design can be obtained if 'Optium Bearing' proportions are calculated as suggested by Kingsbury (1) in his article on 'Optium Conditions …

A Study Of Rotational Critical Speeds For A Multi-Mass, Multi-Span System, Pravinchandra M. Upadhyay

Masters Theses

"It is well known that the unbalanced inertia forces present in rotating shafts set up violent vibrations in a transverse direction at certain speeds known as critical speeds, whirling speeds or whipping speeds. Therefore one who deals with the design of rotating machine parts, such as turbine rotors, multi-cylinder engine crankshafts etc., must consider transverse vibrations of rotating parts.

Practical solutions for finding the critical speeds of simple rotating systems, such as a single disk on a shaft with a single span, were derived by many authors. But as the number of loads and spans increases the problem becomes complex …

A Parametric Study Of The Heat Transfer Characteristics Of A Moving Band Heat Exchanger, Larry Hyde Brim

Theses and Dissertations

In recent years much attention has been devoted to the development of efficient heat exchangers. The regenerative or moving matrix heat exchanger is one type which has been considered. Most regenerative heat exchangers use one of the conventional types of high area matrices mounted in a drum or disk in such a manner that it can be moved in a continuous cycle from a cold fluid stream to a hot fluid stream and back again. A rather different approach to the design of a regenerative heat exchanger which has been patented in this country is a set of flexible moving …

Stress Analysis Of An Infinite Cylinder With An Irregular Shaped Cavity Using Complex Variable Techniques, Gerald H. Lindsey

Theses and Dissertations

The advancement of modern technology has brought with It a demand upon the engineer for more thorough analysis techniques. This has been precipitated by the advent of missiles and space-craft that do not permit regular inspections to determine causes of failure, crack propagation, design weaknesses, etc. Thus, a more complete analytical work must be performed to facilitate a foreknowledge of reaction and performance of a particular design to its environment.

The Aerodynamic Drag Of Spheres, Leon Rouzelle Scott

Theses and Dissertations

A literature survey was conducted to determine the factors which affect aerodynamic drag of spheres. Graphs are presented which show the effect of each variable where such information was available. Equipment was designed and built for the purpose of studying the effects of acceleration on the aerodynamic drag of spheres. Special emphasis was placed on the measurement and control of each of the other variables which can affect the drag. Tests were conducted using large spheres in air and water to show that the method presented can produce a valid determination of the drag coefficients. The numerical values of the …

Development Of A Simple Bar Method Thermal Conductivity Test, V. J. Flanigan

Masters Theses

"A linear flow bar method type apparatus was set up for finding thermal conductivities by comparison techniques. Comparison technique consist of using a standard specimen where the thermal conductivity is known and comparing it to the unknown specimens to find their conductivity. Apparatus of this type usually uses thermocouples for the required temperature measurements, but thermistors were used in this experiment. The thermistors used required calibration to measure accurate temperatures and this was accomplished by using the known temperatures of the changes of state of some common materials. Five alloys were used to evaluate the method: SAE 1020 steel, gray …

A Study Of Heat Transfer Coefficients On Cylindrical Pipe In Turbulent Flow, Dennie Lee Adkins

Masters Theses

"This thesis represents a study of the effects of turbulent motion on heat transfer coefficients on cylindrical pipe.

The turbulent motion was created by cutting transverse slots in a spiral configuration along the pipe length.

An induction heater was used for the heat source and water as the cooling medium. The water was conducted over the pipe surface and through the slots.

This caused the laminar layer along the pipe surface to be broken up and an increase in the heat transfer coefficient was experienced.

The main objective of this test was to find if a relation existed between the …
