Advanced numerical modeling of the Lorentz mixing process

Creator:: Hager, Michael B.
Abstract:: There are numerous techniques for improving the mixing of fuel and oxidant species. However, many of these methods cannot be applied to combustion systems due to material limitations. A means of mixing the reacting species without physically invading the flow stream is therefore desired. In this work, induced electromagnetic forces...

Exact frequencies and mode shapes of a rotating beam

Creator:: Wright, A. D. (Alan Duane), 1954-
Abstract:: The exact frequencies and mode shapes of flexural vibration of a rotating beam are found. The beam has a linear mass and stiffness distribution. With certain simplifying assumptions, the kinetic and potential energies of the rotating beam are found. Hamilton's principle is then used to determine the equation governing the...

Volumetric receiver development : a heat transfer and design evaluation of an advanced air heating solar thermal central receiver concept

Creator:: Drost, M. K.
Abstract:: The volumetric receiver is an advanced solar central receiver concept designed to produce high temperature air. This document presents the results of a heat transfer and performance evaluation of the volumetric receiver concept. The volumetric receiver consists of an array of ceramic fins or fibers arranged in concentric rows around...

Dynamic modeling of a refrigerant boiler for power applications

Creator:: Curry, Thomas Haitsch
Abstract:: A dynamic model of a refrigerant boiler has been produced by the use of distributed parameter modeling techniques. A number of elementary cases were studied and were used as an aid in the final model formulation. Modeling using distributed parameters employed the use of mesh equations which were then reorganized...

Performance of rotary regenerative heat exchanger--a numerical simulation

Creator:: Bae, Young Lib
Abstract:: This thesis examines the transient and steady-state temperature performance of a rotary regenerative heat exchanger. In contrast to previous studies on this problem, fluid flow in the circumferential direction was considered. Appropriate modeling was included to measure the effect of carry-over on the differential equations describing mass and energy conservation....

Numerical modeling of the hydrodynamics of gas fluidized beds

Creator:: Wang, Yusan
Abstract:: This research involves a numerical study of the hydrodynamics of gas fluidized beds. We use the continuum model, treating both gas and particles as interpenetrating continua. The motion of gas and particles is strongly coupled by the interactions between them. For simplicity, we only consider drag forces. We use MacCormack's...

Predicting rebound of planar elastic collisions

Creator:: Cruz-Conde Gret, Raphaël
Abstract:: Impact is a large and complex field. It embraces both structures as simple as a nail, and more complex systems, such as a car collision. A central feature of impact theory is finding the dependence between the velocities before and after impact. The transformation law of the velocities in an...

Reliability centered prediction technique for diagnostic modeling and improvement

Creator:: Murphy, Michael D., 1965-
Abstract:: Design phase decisions based on diagnosability lead to lower system costs and, in turn, higher quality products by means of reducing maintenance time and increasing system reliability. A case for diagnosability is presented. Functions of diagnosability are expounded upon including life cycle costs, statistical analysis, and design criterion to emphasize...

Range of motion of beetle body as a function of foot positions

Creator:: Foo, Chee Kit
Abstract:: This thesis presents a method for determining range of body motion for a walking machine with feet fixed on the ground. The darkling beetle was selected as the sample subject in this study. A closed form inverse kinematic solution is used to determine if a point in space is within...
