Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Bottom Outlet Hydraulic Model

Using experimental models along with conducting numerical analysis have been widely used in performance recognition and optimization of hydraulic equipments. Numerical modeling has lower cost rather than experimental one; however practical tests are commonly used because of the hydraulic structure importance especially in dams. Meanwhile numerical methods could be used for future designs throug...

Scroll Compressor Flow Modeling: Experimental and Computational Investigation

Investigation of a hydraulic impact

Finite element method and dimensional analysis have been applied in the present paper to study a hydraulic impact, which is used in a non-explosive rock breaking technology in mining industry. The impact process of a high speed piston on liquid water, previously introduced in a borehole drilled in rock, is numerically simulated. The research is focused on the influence of all the parameters inv...

An Investigation of Compressor Slugging Problems

Mathematical models have been popularly applied to study the compression processes of superheated refrigerant vapor in compressors. As to the case when refrigerant enters a compressor cylinder in the state of liquid and vapor mixture, however, the availability of fundamental studies is very limited. -A mathematical model is presented to simulate the compression processes of two-phase saturated ...
