The analyzed electrohydraulic servo valve is jet pipe type, is one of the mechatronics component used for precision flow control application. The jet pipe servo valves have one movable nozzle and two collector ports, from where fluid is ducted to the main valve spool. The servovalve analyzed here is basically used in fuel control application in Variable Geometry Actuation System (VGAS) of a gas...

Relativistic jets in Galactic superluminals and extragalactic AGN may be surrounded by a wind near to the central engine. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulation reveal considerable stabilization of relativistic jet flow by a wind to helical and higher order asymmetric modes of jet distortion. When velocities are measured in the source (inlet) frame, reduction in the absolute velocity dif...

The dual-fuel diesel engine (D.F.D.E) is a conventional diesel engine in which much of the energy released, hence power, comes from the combustion of gaseous fuel such as natural gas. The exhaust emission characteristics of the D.F.D.E needs further refinements, particularly in terms of reduction of Unburnt Hydrocarbons (U7HC) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) emission, because the concentration of thes...

Increasing noise regulation at urban airports force jet engine manufactures to develop and build quieter engines. Over the last 10-15 years, a significant reduction in fan and mechanical noise has been achieved. However, the reduction in jet noise over the same time period is fairly small and a major reduction in acoustic emissions of jet engines has to come from a reduction in jet noise. Tradi...

We have derived simplified equations for a freely expanding, pressure driven jet model as a function of jet power and applied it successfully to the radio cores in the black hole candidates GRS 1915+105, NGC 4258, and M 81 which are observationally well defined systems, and to Sgr A*. By using equipartition assumptions, the model has virtually no free parameters and can explain all sources by j...

Previous studies have indicated more birds collide with communication towers equipped with red warning lights than with towers equipped with lights of shorter wavelengths. We used the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration’s National Wildlife Strike Database to determine if a similar relationship exists for turbine-powered jet aircraft with 2 underwingor fuselage-mounted engines and bird strikes....

Aircraft engine noise research and development depends on the ability to study and predict the noise created by each engine component in isolation. The presence of a downstream pylon for a model fan test, however, may result in noise contamination through pylon interactions with the free stream and model exhaust airflows. Additionally, there is the problem of separating the fan and jet noise co...
