Microbursts have been simulated and studied using different physical and numerical modeling methods. In the present study, the steady impinging jet model was comprehensively studied by using a 2-footdiameter (0.61 m) microburst simulator available in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at Iowa State University. Point measurements and Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) results revealed a detai...

Temperature regulating system by gaseous nitrogen is of importance to the space environment simulator, which keeps the shrouds in the temperature range from -150°C to +150°C. Liquid nitrogen spray equipment is one of the most critical parts in the temperature regulating system by gaseous nitrogen. Y type jet atomizer and internal mixing atomizer of the liquid nitrogen spray equipment are studie...

in our country, student transportations’ security and driving accidents statistics for students is one of the major concerns for relevant organizations such as educational organization. in current year, a system, was named sepand, was formed in city taxi driver :::::::union::::::: by educational organization, naja traffic and city taxi driver :::::::union:::::::. in this systems’ plan, basis on...

This study examines the usefulness of providing cockpit automation training to career-minded pilots using automation equipment commonly found in small training airplanes. After mastering a set of tasks and maneuvers of varying difficulty using a small-airplane GPS navigation computer, autopilot, and flight director system, eight student pilots were then tested on their ability to complete a sim...

Numerical investigation of vortex dynamics in near wake of a hovering hawkmoth and hovering aerodynamics is conducted with a biology-inspired dynamic flight simulator. This simulator is developed to be capable of ‘flying’ an insect on a basis of realistic wing-body morphologies and kinematics. The computed results show a three-dimensional mechanism of vortical structures in hawkmoth hovering. A...

Radio-frequency (RF) ablation uses electrode-catheters to destroy abnormally conducting myocardial areas that lead to potentially lethal tachyarrhythmias. The procedure is normally guided with x-rays (2D), leading to errors in location and excessive radiation exposure. One of our goals is to provide preand intra-operative 3D MR guidance in XMR systems (combined X-ray and MRI room) by locating m...

The present study proposes novel micro-jet impingement heat sink with effusion holes for flow extraction. The design consists of impingement nozzles surrounded by multiple effusion holes to take away the spent fluid. A three-dimensional numerical model is used for steady, incompressible, laminar flow and conjugate heat transfer for the performance analysis of the proposed design. The computatio...
