Investigation Of Important Surface Characteristics Of A Finned Tube Heat Exchanger, Bobby Dale Stafford

Masters Theses

"Surface characteristics of a finned tube heat exchanger were examined to help predict the contact geometry between metal surfaces. These characteristics were the surface roughness and waviness and the material hardness. A scanning electron microscope was used to observe the surface topography of the fins as well as examining the contact between the aluminum fin and the copper tube.

Comparisons of the surface roughness were then made between heat exchangers having different fin numbers (20, 14, and 6) with the result that as the fin number decreased, the roughness also decreased. For a given fin number, it was discovered that …

Linear Inversion Method To Obtain Aerosol Size Distributions From Measurements With A Differential Mobility Analyzer, Donald E. Hagen, Darryl J. Alofs

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The Use of a Differential Mobility Analyzer to Perform Aerosol Size Spectrum Measurements Requires an Inversion Method to Go from the Measured Sensor Responses to the Desired Size Spectrum Information. Here We Present a Linear Inversion Method that Can Be Run on a Microcomputer or a Small Minicomputer. It Does Not Use Some of the Approximations Made in the Techniques Currently Available and Hence Gives Better Inversion Accuracy. the Method Shows Good Immunity to Both Random and Systematic Experimental Error. It is Applied to Numerous Test Case Aerosols. © 1983 Elsevier Science Publishing Co., Inc.

Stability Analysis Of Closed Surge Tanks By Phase-Plane Method, Mostafa A. Sabbah

Civil & Environmental Engineering Theses & Dissertations

The governing equations describing water level oscillations in a closed surge tank with compressed air at the top of the tank are a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations if the hydraulic system is analyzed as a lumped system. These oscillations are stable or unstable depending on the parameters of the plant and the type and magnitude of the disturbance.

The present available stability criterion has been developed by linearizing the governing equations and is, therefore, valid only for small disturbances.

In the research reported herein, the governing equations are normalized to reduce the number of parameters from nine to …

Relationships Between Selected Features Of Helical Or Spur Gears And Size Distortions Due To Heat Treatment, Abolghassem Tolu Honary

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between selected gear features and distortions due to heat treatment. An extensive review of the literature indicated that studies on gear distortions were mainly metallurgically oriented, and the relationships between gear geometrical features and dimensional distortions due to heat treatment had not been investigated.

This investigation obtained data from actual gear size adjustments that had been collected from many years of experimentations at the John Deere Component Works (JDCW), Waterloo, Iowa. Gear data were converted to uniform files and were classified, retrieved, and analyzed by computerized systems. Two groups of …

A Technique For Obtaining Very Efficient Dynamical Equations For On-Line Computation Of Joint Forces Of Robotic Mechanisms, Dennis A. Dohogne

Masters Theses

"In order to increase the operational speed and positional accuracy of robotic mechanisms, on-line force control has been proposed. Because of the complexity of exact dynamical formulations, real-time computation of joint forces may be too slow.

Since force control is accomplished with a dedicated computer, unique, dedicated sets of force equations are justified. An efficient force computation technique based on the algebraic expansion and recombination of exact dynamics formulations is presented. Developments of the robotics matrix notation and of a Lagrangian dynamics formulation are also presented. A generalized three link manipulator model is used to compare the computational complexities of …

A Finite Element For The Three-Dimensional Deformation Of A Circular Ring Of Arbitrary Cross Section, Jeffrey Stuart Knowlton

Mechanical Engineering ETDs

A two-node finite element for relatively compact, solid curved beams is derived. A node is located at the centroid of each end of the beam, and each node has six degrees of freedom, consisting of three translations and three rotations in mutually perpendicular directions. The element stiffness matrix has dimensions 12x12. A cylindrical polar coordinate system is used to express the components of the associated displacement and load vectors. As a consequence of the assumption of a nonzero cross-section product of inertia, deflec­tions in the plane and out of the plane of beam curvature are coupled. Hence in-plane loads can …
