Analysis Of The Flow Through A Francis' Turbine Runner Using Computational Fluid Dynamics, William Anthony Jun 2008

Analysis Of The Flow Through A Francis' Turbine Runner Using Computational Fluid Dynamics, William Anthony

Archived Theses and Dissertations

This study investigates the fluid flow through the runner of an exceptionally low specific speed Francis’ turbine using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to predict some performance characteristic of the runner, and to determine the effect of cavitation on the flow features within the turbine. It employs FLUENT CFD codes for the analysis. The study was carried out under steady conditions in two- dimensional analysis, primarily using the RNG k-ε turbulence model. It is mainly on single phase analysis; however a single case of two-phase cavitation modeling was performed in order to evaluate cavitation effects. The hydraulic losses were much dependent …

Powder Rolling Of Cnt-Reinforced Aluminum Strips, Mostafa Abdel-Fattah El-Borady Jun 2008

Powder Rolling Of Cnt-Reinforced Aluminum Strips, Mostafa Abdel-Fattah El-Borady

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were added to aluminum powder (99.97% pure) to produce a composite material. Three mixing techniques were examined

1 Low energy mixing: Using a Turbula mixer with two different speeds 48 and 67 rpm.

2 High energy mixing: Using a ball mill without adding any balls in the mixing jars with two speeds 300 and 400 rpm.

3 Ball milling: Using the ball mill (with steel balls) to mix higher CNT weight fraction samples for the electrical resistivity tests.

The mixtures were packed in copper cans and rolled in a rolling machine to compact the mixture; …

Design And Optimization Of Input Shapers For Liquid Slosh Suppression, Ameen Aboel Hassan Feb 2008

Design And Optimization Of Input Shapers For Liquid Slosh Suppression, Ameen Aboel Hassan

Archived Theses and Dissertations

The need for fast maneuvering and accurate positioning of flexible structures poses a control challenge. The flexibility inherent in these lightly damped systems creates large residual vibrations in response to fast disturbances. Several control approaches have been proposed to tackle this class of problems, of which the input shaping technique seems quite appealing. While input shaping has been widely investigated to attenuate residual vibrations in flexible structures, less attention was granted to expand its viability in further applications. It is therefore the aim of this work to develop a methodology for applying input shaping techniques to suppress sloshing effects in …
