We report the reconstruction of a transparency image in Ghost diffraction scheme using statistical optics approach. This is implemented by static diffuser rather than pseudo thermal light source with rotating diffuser. The experimental implementation makes use spatial ergodicity and stationarity for spatially distributed random fields. A strategy to realize through intensity correlation phase r...

A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model has been developed to simulate the flow and heat transfer near a lower radial inlet diffuser in a cylindrical stratified chilled water storage tank during charging. The model was used to perform parametric simulations of inlet diffuser performance in full-scale tanks during thermocline formation, from which first-order correlation relating thermal perf...

In our previous experiments using a wind tunnnel, the flow in a two-dimensional curved diffuser with logarithmic spiral angle was clarified quantitatively about the variation of spiral angle and the existence of a guide vane. The wind tunnel method however requires much time for preparation of the experimental system and for the main experimental procedure . We have recently devised a new exper...

In this study, we numerically investigated the effects of design parameters, such as strut geometry or diffusion angle, on performance an industrial turbine exhaust diffuser. Turbine diffusers are commonly used to change kinetic energy gases from outlet stages into static pressure. The diffuser in work consisted annular with five identical struts equally spaced around front circumference and a ...

Campbell diffusers have a unique feature in that they lack axial symmetry in the end walls. It has been proposed that the asymmetry of the end wall in a vaned diffuser can be tailored to improve its performance. This concept is applied to the redesign of two vaned diffuser configurations: (1) diffuser with straight leading edge; (2) diffuser with parabolic leading edge. In the redesign, the ori...

We develop a reduced-order model for large-scale unsteadiness (vortex shedding) in a two-dimensional diffuser and use the model to show how periodic mass injection near the separation point reduces stagnation pressure loss. The model estimates the characteristic frequency of vortex shedding and stagnation pressure loss by accounting for the accumulated circulation due to the vorticity flux into...

This paper presents a three dimensions (3D) model of optical power distribution in a diffused cellular indoor visible light communication (VLC) system. To achieve an ideal system which has a maximum coverage area with a minimum power consumption, both hexagon geometric structure and holographic light shaping diffuser (LSD) are employed. We analysed the mathematical models for both square and he...

VEST is a set of four stream cipher families targeted to semiconductor applications. All VEST family members support efficient encryption, single pass authenticated encryption, and collision resistant hashing in the one low area module. VEST was submitted by Synaptic Laboratories Ltd. to the ECRYPT NoE eSTREAM project in 2005. Recently, a single digit typographical error was identified in the V...

An activated sludge aeration basin (20 cm i.d., 140 cm height) equipped with either a coarse air diffuser (a plastic pipe perforated with 56 orifices of 2 mm in diameter) or a fine diffuser (porous plastic type with 100-micrometer pores) was utilized to treat an air-borne hydrophobic VOC (toluene, 700-800 mg/m). The purposes of this study were to test the influences of both MLSS and diffuser ty...

Landsat 8 is the first satellite in the Landsat mission to acquire spectral imagery of the Earth using pushbroom sensor instruments. As a result, there are almost 70,000 unique detectors on the Operational Land Imager (OLI) alone to monitor. Due to minute variations in manufacturing and temporal degradation, every detector will exhibit a different behavior when exposed to uniform radiance, caus...
