This paper is devoted to study the effects of pressure drop in heat exchangers on the dynamics of a free piston Stirling engine. First, the dynamic equations governing the pistons as well as the gas pressure equations for hot and cold spaces of the engine are extracted. Then, by substituting the obtained pressure equations into the dynamic relationships the final nonlinear dynamic equations gov...

eart pressure problems are encountered in retaining walls, bulkheads, sheeting and bracing in cuts,culverts, tunnels, and cofferdams. in many cases, the lateral pressure is determined by use of classical earth pressure theories, such as coulomb's, where the equilibrium conditions of a failure wedge of soil is considered. excessive dynamic lateral earth pressure on retaining structures resu...

the security and stability of dams for flood passing through the spillway should be provided. so, kinetic energy of flow over large spillway must be dissipated. one of the energy dissipation structures at downstream dams, are plunging pools. the aim of this paper is to investigate dynamic pressure that is created by the impact of a series of rounded non-submerged jets on a flat plate with the r...

in this paper, the dynamic simulation for a high pressure regulator is performed to obtain the regulator behavior. to analyze the regulator performance, the equation of motion for inner parts, the continuity equation for diverse chambers and the equation for mass flow rate were derived. because of nonlinearity and coupling, these equations are solved using numerical methods and the results are ...

nowadays, compressible flow transmission pipelines are used in many industrial processes. pipelines in chemical processes, gas turbine power plants, natural gas transmission lines, and high pressure steam transmission pipelines are some industrial examples. therefore, learning the manner of treatment of a transient compressible fluid flow in pipelines with junctions and branches is important. i...

rock selection in modeling and simulation studies is usually based on two techniques; routinely defined rock types and those defined by special core analysis (scal). the challenge in utilizing these two techniques is that they are frequently assumed to be the same, but in practice, static rock-types (routinely defined) are not always representative of dynamic rock-types (scal defined) in the re...

In recent years, various studies have been undertaken on how to use waste materials in civil engineering projects. Among waste materials, waste rubber has been highlighted to be used for different purposes such as reinforcing of soil and making of reinforced slopes. To investigate the properties of granulated rubber-soil mixture and its application in making of slopes behind retaining walls, so...

In this paper the numerical simulation of flow field in the new design dynamic cyclone separator is investigated. The effects of different geometrical parameters such as impeller diameter, number of vanes, length and the location of impeller is investigated. The Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations with Reynolds stress turbulence model (RSM) were solved. The Eulerian-Lagrangian computation...
