Measurements of unbalance response in a squeeze film damper test rotor-kit
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
Measurements of the unbalance response in a squeeze film damper (SFD) rotorkit are presented. The rotor-SFD test apparatus and instrumentation are fully described. Results from the measurements of the system unbalance ...
Development of a three-dimensional finite element model of a horse's foot
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
The horse's foot, defined as the hoof wall and all the structures within it, is subjected to intense load-bearing and energy-absorbing demands. The foot is actually a complex assembly of components that deform as they ...
Effect of scale up, stacking, self humidification and use of lightweight components on the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell
(Texas A&M University, 1995)
The effects of various design and operating variables on the performances of a PEM fuel cell were investigated. Performance was evaluated in terms of the polarization curves (cell potential versus current density plots). ...

Vapor Pressure measurements for dichlorosilane
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
In the processing of silicon-based materials, such as those used for electronic and photovoltaic materials, one of the key initial components is dichlorosilane. Dichlorosilane is often used in mixtures that include other ...
Rotordynamic evaluation of a roughened-land hybrid bearing
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Hybrid bearings (combinations of hydrostatic and hydrodynamic bearings) represent an attractive alternative to ball bearings for use in high-speed cryogenic turbopumps. However, the internally-developed cross-coupled forces ...
Performance of a small scale boiler burner in the firing of fuel blends
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Power plants spend nearly 50 billion dollars a year on fuel cost. Presently coal accounts for over 75% of the electricity generated in this country. Due to increasingly harsh environmental regulations, the demand for low ...
The interaction between two radial jets
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Arrays of impinging jets are used in industry for heat and mass transfer processes. A new type of jet was recently developed which could be utilized in such arrays. This jet is the radial jet and it offers the advantages ...
