Direct-sampling optical techniques for the study of transient combustion events

Creator:: Herron, John R.
Abstract:: Techniques have been developed for measuring the temperature, stable species concentrations, and atomic radical concentrations during a transient combustion event. They combine the features of direct sampling with two spectroscopic techniques to produce relatively simple diagnostic techniques to obtain time-resolved measurements. In this study, a transient event was provided by...

Temperature measurement, electrical characteristics, and lorentz mixing of alkali seeded flames

Creator:: Pattee, Heidi Ann
Abstract:: When trace quantities of an alkali element are added to a flame, its optical and electrical properties change significantly. Addition of alkali seed to both premixed and diffusion flames has been used in the development of two new techniques, one for flame temperature measurement and the other for enhanced mixing....

A study of a diffusionally controlled reactive synthesis process using a multi-tube diffusion flame burner

Creator:: Snell, Douglas C.
Abstract:: A continuous process for the production of ceramic materials has been studied. This method reacted metal and oxidizer in a diffusionally controlled process, demonstrated by reacting a magnesium particle stream and hot water vapor. Many small rich hydrogen/air diffusion flames provide an atmosphere of hot water vapor, hydrogen, and nitrogen...

An experimental study of flow boiling heat transfer enhancement in minichannels with porous mesh heating wall

Creator:: Wang, Hailei
Abstract:: A unique channel surface enhancement technique via diffusion-bonding a layer of conductive fine wire mesh onto the heating wall was developed and used to experimentally study flow boiling enhancement in parallel microchannels. Each channel was 1000 μm wide and 510 μm high. A dielectric working fluid, HFE 7000, was used...

A computational model for resonantly coupled alpha free-piston Stirling Coolers

Creator:: Al-Hazmy, Majed Mualla H.
Abstract:: A computational model for a resonantly coupled alpha free-piston Stirling cooler is presented. The cooler consists of two isothermal working spaces for compression and expansion connected by a regenerator consisting of a stack of narrow parallel channels. The regenerator is assumed to have a linear temperature distribution along its axial...

The Influence of Scale in a Structured Decision Making Framework for Chinook Salmon Management

Creator:: McDonnell, Kevin N.
Abstract:: The goal of my dissertation was to explore how scale influences stream restoration prioritization strategies for an anadromous species and identify influential uncertainties that exist at different scales. My objectives were to (1) produce a comprehensive review of the Chinook salmon management challenges in California’s Central Valley and identify the...

Applications of the thermal wave technique in liquid thermal conductivity measurements and flow field diagnostics

Creator:: Wang, Zhefu
Abstract:: The thermal wave technique has been explored for the use of liquid thermal conductivity measurement and flow property diagnostics in this dissertation. For liquid thermal conductivity measurements, an experimental technique based on the thermal wave approach is developed. A stainless steel strip functions as both a heating element and a...

Curriculum synthesis and amelioration : a case study of undergraduate civil engineering

Creator:: Hamernik, Robert E.
Abstract:: The dynamic philosophy of education as applied to the undergraduate Civil Engineering program has been influenced by such factors as the introduction of new theories, the demands and needs of our society and the personnel responsible for teaching. These changes are reflected in the curriculum as witnessed by a historical...
