in this study, changes in speed and turbulence intensity in the wake of a peugeot model and the drag coefficient changes with increases vehicle speed in unsteady flow measured and evaluated. the blow open circuit wind tunnel to simulate fluid flow is used. disturbances and nominal maximum speed of the device, respectively is, 30 m / s and 0.01%. has been continuously increasing speed by an inve...

In this paper we present the impact of hot wire geometry and fluid characteristics on the efficiency of a hot wire to be used as a wall shear stress sensor. Finite differences and finite elements modelling based simulators were used in order to evaluate the thermal performances of hot wire wall shear stress sensor. Several structures were explored including simple conductor or suspended above a...

background: in intracavitary brachytherapy for gynecological cancers, various techniques are used to locate the anterior rectal wall nearest to the sources but there is no consensus on the best method to do so. this study aimed to compare a technique used routinely in some centers that employs a wire marker to locate the position of the maximum rectal dose point, versus the method recommended b...

Hot-wire anemometric measurements of non-isothermal flows require the use of thermal compensation or correction circuitry. One possible solution is a two-state hot-wire anemometer that uses the cyclically changing heating level of a single sensor. The area in which flow velocity and fluid temperature can be measured is limited by the dimensions of the sensor's active element. The system is desi...

There is a growing interest in atomic layer deposition (ALD) of metals for ultra-large-scale integrated circuit (ULSIC) manufacturing. Radical-enhanced ALD (REALD) utilizing plasma (PEALD) has been proposed to grow a number of metals [1]. In our work, we investigate an alternative approach to REALD without plasma, i.e. replacing plasma by a hot (up to 2000 oC) tungsten (W) wire. In this so-call...

This paper describes the main principles of constructing innovative MEMS flow meters for gaseous working fluids. MEMS flow meter contains hot-wire thermoanemometrisc sensor which response to the temperature change caused by convective working fluid heat transfer from a hot-wire. The advantages of using hot-wire thermoanemometric sensors were analyzed. The main emphasis of this work is on speed,...

Accurate calibration is imperative to obtain reliable flow measurements using hot-wire anemometry. Calibration errors owing to temperature drift, wire degradation, changes in ambient conditions etc can lead to substantial uncertainties in hot-wire measurements. A new calibration procedure is implemented here to account for most forms of drift that are typically encountered during high quality f...
