(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)The quasi-analytical approach is developed and applied to the three-dimensional full potential equation to compute wing aerodynamic sensitivity coefficients in the transonic regime. Symbolic manipulation is used to reduce ...
-
(2020-10-30)The unsteady flow physics promoted by complex turbulent interactions are found in a variety of engineering applications. Classical turbulence studies are strongly motivated by individual canonical flow types, though rarely ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)The feasibility of a plane turbulent jet working in conjunction with a local exhaust system to provide effective air contaminant control was investigated in theory and experimentally. The combination of these air moving ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)A better characterization of the mean flow systems occurring in the discharge flows of rotating impellers can advance the knowledge of mixing mechanisms in agitated vessels. Since the flow field is rather complex, the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)This work makes a comparison between the results of studies of stratified linear flow models and a simple mathematical model of the system which separates the flow into linear and rotational components. Fair agreement ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)The effective-medium theory for complex conductivity is known to be a useful model for describing the conductive and dielectric properties of heterogeneous media. The validity of the theory for shaly sandstones is explored ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The Control Volume Based Finite Element Method (CVFEM) has been extended in two main aspects. The first is the integration of the vorticity-streamfunction formulation with the CVFEM. The key contribution of this work is ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The FCVM has been used to solve both open flow problems and turbulent flow problems. The particular problems chosen for consideration were the flow between infinite parallel plates and the buoyant flow in a square enclosure. ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)A rectangular turbulent jet has a complex three dimensional flow field. These jets are frequently used in industry, however their flow field dynamics are not understood. The objective of this study was to increase the ...
-
(2012-10-19)It is common for an oil well to produce a mixture of hydrocarbons that flash when exposed to atmospheric pressure. The separation of oil and gas mixtures on site may prove expensive and lead to higher infrastructure and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1991)In this research, the equations of motion of an isotropic fluid-saturated sedimentary medium are developed from first principles. The equations are limited to the case where linear stress/strain relations are adequate for ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)A three-dimensional model describing the two-phase (air-water) fluid flow equations in an integrated saturates-unsaturated porous medium was developed. Also, a three-dimensional convective-dispersion equation describing ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Planar diffusers with injection along the diverging walls were investigated relative to their pressure recovery performance. Injection orientation, location and slot width were varied for diffusers with aspect ratios of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)The current numerical model takes into account the full three-dimensionality and cyclic fluctuations of the flow variables in a turbomachinery stage. The cyclic fluctuations are the result of circumferential irregularities ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)An acoustically excited (St = 0.50), Mach 0.15, axisymmetric free jet operating at Reynolds number of 41,000 was studied in order to determine the transition behavior, the overall turbulence characteristics, and to quantify ...
