Centrifugal irrigation pumps discharge fluids at high velocities that must be slowed
to minimize energy losses due to friction. Pipe expansions make the transition to larger
pipes associated with slower velocities. Expansions convert the upstream velocity head
to static head in the downstream pipe. The transition to a larger pipe...
The OSU Motor Systems Resource Facility (MSRF), co-directed by the Principal Investigators (PI's, bios included), is an Energy Systems Laboratory with operating capabilities up to 750kV A, testbeds up to 300hp, a 120kVA fully programmable source, and a bi-directional grid interface enabling regeneration back onto the grid. The MSRF was...
This is an integrated assessment across terrestrial, freshwater, and coastal marine realms. It includes the coast range of Oregon and Washington as well as Vancouver Island in British Columbia. The marine portion only includes the coastline and shallow subtidal; the next iteration will include the offshore component.
