    An incompressible three-dimensional turbulent boundary layer on the floor of a recurving rectangular channel 

    Klinksiek, William Frederick (Virginia Tech, 1967-09-15)
    <p>A brief review of three-dimensional turbulent boundary layer mean velocity profile models was presented, with emphasis on the applicability of these to predict cross flow profiles when skewing existed in any single ...

    Pool boiling of sulfur dioxide from an electrically heated wire 

    Lee, William Wei-Lim (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1964)
    The bolling film coefficients of sulfur dioxide were obtained from. experiments with an electrically heated wire submerged in a pool of sulfur dioxide liquid. A three-inch 15 Gage Nichrome V wire served as heating element ...

    Optimization of the design of an extended surface with finned pins 

    Vatsaraj, Bharatkumar C. (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1964)
    Numerous types of extended surfaces have been used in the past but those with finned pins have proved to be unique in increasing the rate of heat transfer. Hsieh working on the original idea ot professor Hsu proved that ...

    Boiling film coefficients for sulfur dioxide in a vertical evaporator 

    Chestnutt, David (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1962)
    It was the intent of this investigation to determine boiling film coefficients of SO₂ in a temperature range not previously investigated. Further, a practical method of circulating liquid SO₂ and reclaiming SO₂ vapor without ...

    Heat transfer from a finned pin to the ambient air 

    Hsieh, James Chen (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1963)
    Extensive investigations employing fins as extended surfaces have been conducted, but relatively little experimental work has been conducted with pins, no information is available on the heat transfer characteristics of a ...

    The measurement of the running torque of oil and grease lubricated instrument ball bearings under combined radial and axial loads 

    Clarke, George Edward (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1966)
    Although many studies have been made on the operating characteristics of instrument bearings, most were conducted at two rpm or less and with thrust load only. A study by H.H. Mable tested the running torques of radially ...

    A comparison of the stresses in the crankshaft of an internal combustion engine as determined by using electrical resistance strain gages and by analytical methods 

    Mui, Billy Yick-Kwan (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1962)
    In order to study the degree of accuracy with which the analytical methods used in crankshaft design would predict the actual operating stresses in the crankshaft of an internal combustion engine, electrical resistance ...

    Solution of the laminar boundary layer of a semi-infinite flat plate given an impulsive change in velocity and temperature 

    Bare, Michael David (Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 1967)
    The laminar boundary layer over a semi-infinite flat plate which is impulsively set in motion in an incompressible fluid and which has a simultaneous step change in surface temperature was studied. An approximate method ...

    Determination of the burning rate of small diameter aluminum wire 

    Friant, Charles William (Virginia Tech, 1964-06-05)
    <p>This investigation was involved with the combustion of 0.020" diameter aluminum in various mixtures of industrial oxygen and nitrogen at a total pressure of one atmosphere.</p> <p> A combustion chamber was constructed ...
