Influence Of Turbidity On The Stratification Development Of A Deep Water Reservoir., David Allen Prouty Jan 1976

Influence Of Turbidity On The Stratification Development Of A Deep Water Reservoir., David Allen Prouty

Masters Theses

"The influence of turbidity on the diurnal temperature distribution and thermocline development in a deep water impoundment which is exposed to heating and cooling loads by convection, evaporation, and radiation is examined analytically. The diurnal behavior of the solar load, directional and spectral, is used with an isotropic multiple scattering model to simulate the attenuation of solar flux by turbid water. The diurnal behavior of the ambient temperature, humidity and wind speed were mathematically modeled to simulate the local (Phelps Co.) spring time of the year. The combined conduction and radiation energy transfer through the water was treated as a …

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The objective of this paper is to present general techniques for simulating helicopter flight trajectory response. During flight the pilot manipulates the controls either to trim the helicopter for steady flight by balancing the external forces and moments or to produce a desired maneuver by controlling the unbalance of these forces and moments. Discussions of the physical phenomena involved with the aerodynamics of the rotors and fuselage are given in [1] through [3]. The simulated control function will be composed forward-aft cyclic, lateral cyclic, pedal, and collective. This control will be represented by the vector

Bit Penetration Into Rock-A Finite Element Study, J. K. Wang, T. F. Lehnhoff Jan 1976

Bit Penetration Into Rock-A Finite Element Study, J. K. Wang, T. F. Lehnhoff

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The sequence of rock failure mechanisms and quantitative information on stress, displacement and material failure in the process of bit penetration have been obtained through computer simulation. A finite element approach has been developed to simulate bit penetration from bit-rock interaction to chip formation. A mathematical rock failure model, based on available rock failure experiments, has been proposed to represent post-failure rock behavior and applied in the penetration simulations. The finite element code was developed for two-dimensional plane strain problems to consider non-linear material properties, geometric non-linearity, and fracture propagation. An anistropic element as well as variable stiffness and stress …

The Effects Of Main-Flow Radial Velocity On The Stability Of Developing Laminar Pipe Flow, F. C.T. Shen, T. S. Chen, L. M. Huang Jan 1976

The Effects Of Main-Flow Radial Velocity On The Stability Of Developing Laminar Pipe Flow, F. C.T. Shen, T. S. Chen, L. M. Huang

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In studying the stability due to axisymmetric disturbances of the developing flow of an incompressible fluid in the entrance region of a circular tube, a generalized version of the Orr-Sommerfeld equation was derived which takes account of the radial velocity component in the main flow. The new terms in the generalized Orr-Sommerfeld equation are inversely proportional to the Reynolds number. The resulting eigenvalue problem consisting of the disturbance equation and the boundary conditions was solved by a direct numerical integration scheme along with an iteration procedure. Neutral stability curves and critical Reynolds numbers at various axial locations are presented. A …

Numerical Investigation Of The Flow Of A Stratified Fluid Past A Flat Plate, David L. Eddingfield Nov 1975

Numerical Investigation Of The Flow Of A Stratified Fluid Past A Flat Plate, David L. Eddingfield

Mechanical Engineering ETDs

The two dimensional stratified flow past a flat plate is investigated numerically. The coordinates are stretched with a hyperbolic tangent mapping in order to place the computational boundaries at a sufficiently large distance from the plate. The growth of a boundary layer from the back of the plate as reported by R. R. Long was confirmed numerically. The boundary layer is found to increase in thickness from the back of the plate for values of the ratio of the Reynolds number to the Richardson number up to at least 20. In addition, the upstream influence of the plate is found …
