Conical multiple-jet nozzles, which reduce the risk of nozzle openings being blocked, are tested for their effectiveness in noise reduction. Nozzles with different exit spacings are tested. It is found that the multiple-jet design significantly decreases noise levels in the audible range by shifting emitted sound power to higher and ultrasonic frequencies. No significant difference in noise cha...

The exponential increase of industrial demand in the past two decades has led scientists to the development of alternative technologies for the fast manufacturing of engineering components, aside from standard and time consuming techniques such as casting or forging. Cold Spray (CS) is a newly developed manufacturing technique, based upon the deposition of metal powder on a substrate due to hig...

Expansions of n -butane from small nozzles were observed to generate large clusters, provided that enough helium or neon carrier gas accompanied the butane to remove the heat of condensation rapidly and to produce low temperatures. Although expansions of neat n -butane led to substantial conformational cooling under some circumstances, clusters were never seen without carrier gas. Both thin-pla...

The objective of this study was to evaluate different strategies for the application of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN). Three different models of spray nozzles with air induction (AI 11003, TTI 11003 and AD-IA 11004), three spray pressures (207, 413 and 720 kPa), four different additives for tank mixtures (cane molasses, mineral oil, vegetable oil and glycerin) and the influence of tank mixtu...

Simulations and measurements of gas-droplet multiphase flows in application to supersonic expansions into vacuum have been considered and compared with each other. The experiments involved exposing a control surface to a supersonic plume from two different nozzles and measuring the size distribution of droplets at various locations. The simulations are based on the direct simulation Monte Carlo...

Abstract:-The FSAE guidelines state that it is mandatory for each and every car participating in the said event to have a single circular 20mm restrictor in the intake system. All the air flowing to the engine must pass through this restrictor. Conventionally, a Venturi Nozzle is used as a restrictor. In our research, we have proposed two Nozzles: De-Laval Nozzle and Bell Nozzle as an alternati...

Spray application of Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) vaccines is a labor- and time-saving means of mass vaccination of layer chickens. Recent assessment of spray characteristics of nozzles commonly used to apply MG vaccine in layer chicken operations has shown that the amount of respirable droplets (< 5 microm) is negligible. Topical application of vaccine onto the eye surface has been suggested ...
