A blade-to-blade computer program, using the method of finite differences has been written to calculate the velocity distributions on the rotor blade of an axial-flow compressor. The shape of the blade has been approximated ...

An apparatus to experimentally verify the accuracy of filmwise condensation heat transfer theories for small diameter horizontal tubes was developed. The apparatus was designed so that the condensation pattern was visible ...

The effect of surface finish on the transfer of polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) to mild steel was studied using a radio-tracer technique. A pin-on-disk apparatus was used in conjunction with neutron activation of ...

Small dimensional changes in six parameters were experimentally studied for their effects on the performance of the bistable fluid amplifier. These dimensional parameters were offset, wall length, control width, power ...

The effects of contaminated supply air on the performance of a laminar proportional amplifier were experimentally investigated. The air supply was contaminated with oil vapor and particulate matter. Characteristic gain ...

<p>A method using gas chromatography for the analysis of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and nitric oxide in diesel exhaust was developed. A gas chromatograph containing a liquid phase column in series with a molecular ...
