Due to machining techniques and dust deposition, gas turbine upstream slots vane roots are always filleted, significantly affecting the cooling performance of endwall. The effects slot fillet root on endwall were investigated by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations with shear stress transport (SST) k–ω turbulence model. results indicate that velocity distri...

what he calls a string of coincidences. A physiologist colleague in Guatemala who happened to have worked with John Vane, then at the Royal College of Surgeons, recommended Moncada to Vane. Once in England, Moncada joined Vane's team, which was then working on the mechanism of action of aspirin and its relationship with prostaglandin synthesis. In 1974, he returned to Honduras to pursue a resea...

We report microwave emission measurements from an inverted relativistic magnetron comprising an outer cylindrical field emission cathode and an inner coaxial anode with embedded vane resonators. The magnetron operates in the w mode at a frequency of %3.6GHz, and voltages of 1-2MV. The RF power is %500MW.

The modern gas turbine engine requires innovative cooling techniques to protect its internal components from the harsh operating environment typically seen downstream of the combustor. Much research has been performed on the design of these cooling techniques thus allowing for combustion temperatures higher than the melting point of the parts within the turbine. As turbine inlet temperatures an...

Abstract In this article, a numerical investigation of the effect miniaturized five-hole probe downstream transonic low-pressure turbine vane row is presented. First, calibration was performed in uniform flow conditions, as case for any traditional calibration, wide range Mach number, yaw angle, and pitch angle conditions. The on general field throughout segments then evaluated by performing co...

A graph on 2n vertices can be Skolem-labeled if the vertices can be given labels from {1, . . . , n} such that each label i is assigned to exactly two vertices and these vertices are at distance i. Mendelsohn and Shalaby have characterized the Skolem-labeled paths, cycles and windmills (of fixed vane length). In this paper, we obtain necessary conditions for the Skolem-labeling of generalized k...

The study of unsteady aerodynamic phenomena in wind tunnels is supported by gust-generating devices capable generating adjustable magnitude and periodicity velocity fluctuations a flowfield. Gusts are typically generated actively introducing moving vanes to direct the flow, or passively tailoring boundary layer growth shape tunnel. flow facility used here student-built closed-return low-speed t...
