An Experimental Investigation of Wave Forces on a Submerged Horizontal Plate over a Simple Slope

Weakly-compressible SPH and Experimental modeling of periodic wave breaking on a plane slope

Breaking waves have ability to transport large quantities of sediment and significant impact on coastal structures morphology. Hence, modeling of wave breaking is an important subject in coastal and marine engineering. In this research, the periodic wave breaking process on a plane slope is studied experimentally and numerically. Laboratory experiments were conducted to record water surface ele...

An experimental study on the efficiency of the submerged plate wave energy converter

Several studies have been made using submerged plates for wave-damping purpose. A pulsating flow occurs opposite to the direction of wave propagation below these wave breakers. This water flow can be used for energy production purposes. In this study, the energy efficiency of the plate wave energy converter is determined experimentally. The length of the plate L 1⁄4 1m, the water depth d 1⁄4 60...

An Experimental Investigation of the Effects of Canard Position on the Aerodynamic Forces of a Fighter Type Configuration Model

An extensive experimental investigation is conducted to study the effect of canard position relative to the fuselage reference line on the aerodynamic forces of a fighter type configuration model. Aerodynamic forces at different flight conditions are measured in a subsonic wind tunnel. The wing and the canard have triquetrous shapes. Experiments are conducted at Reynolds number of 342209 and at...

Experimental Investigation on the Effect of Parameters Influencing the Performance of a Horizontal Styrene-Water Separator

an experimental investigation on fiat plate inducer

one of the most problems that limits use of turbomachines at high speed applications is cavitation. cavitation can damage casing and blades of turbopump, also can make unstability in system. inducer that was installed in front of main impeller can improve cavitation characteristic of system and increase static pressure just before entrance of centrifugal pump. specially in fuel feed system of l...
