The multipad circular guide hydrostatic bearing of heavy-duty CNC machine is taken as the research object. Based on the lubrication properties of the heavy hydrostatic bearing, viscosity-temperature equation of interstitial fluid is established in various viscosities. In accordance with factory actual production, the fluid critical from laminar to turbulent is calculated by finite volume method...

Various classic icing codes have been developed and used by the aircraft manufacturers to predict the ice shapes evolution. These codes apply boundary layer integral analysis, based on sand grain roughness, to estimate the convective heat transfer coefficient around the iced airfoil and adopt abrupt transition between laminar and turbulent flow. In the present work, the integral analysis is als...

Future rocket-nozzle extensions have to be thermally protected by a film of cooling gas. The hot supersonic boundary-layer flow may be fully turbulent despite a strong favorable pressure gradient and strongly cooled walls. In contrast to previous investigations, where a laminar boundary-layer state was considered, the present work deals with the effects of a turbulent flow. The cooling film is ...

The basis of this paper is the assumption, that graviton is a measurable entity of molecular gravitational acceleration and this is not a hypothetical entity. The adoption of this assumption as an axiom is tantamount to fully opening the previously locked door to the boundary theory between laminar and turbulent flows. It leads to the theorem, that the division of flows of Newtonian (viscous) f...

An experimental study was conducted to characterize the transient behavior of laminar flow separation on a NASA low-speed GA (W)-1 airfoil at the chord Reynolds number of 70,000. In addition to measuring the surface pressure distribution around the airfoil, a high-resolution particle image velocimetry (PIV) system was used to make detailed flow field measurements to quantify the evolution of un...
