abstractinduced total pressure by flow, including mean and fluctuating components, around a selected chute block in saf stilling basins downstream of an ogee spillway was studied. several pressure holes were selected on various faces of a selected chute block to get enough information regarding the total pressure field. this paper reports the results of an experimental work and measurement of m...

geometry of the chute blocks in stilling basins plays a significant role in size and type of these structures. one of the most influencing factors in the design of the blocks is the fluctuating pressure which may cause fatigue on the blocks. despite investigations conducted by many researchers, there is not enough information about the pressure fluctuation around chute blocks in compacted still...

In the present work an attempt has been made to study the effect of the twisted tapes as bed internals, on the performance of the gas-solid fluidized beds. Experimental investigation has been carried out in cylindrical column with and without twisted tapes. Twelve numbers of twisted tapes of three different widths with four values of the twist ratios for each width were studied at different...

negative and therefore the fluctuation of the readings reduced to normal pressure is only statistical. There is no indication of a systematic variation due to causes other than variation of pressure. Since the statistical fluctuation is large it cannot be excluded that systematic variations with amplitudes much smaller than the barometric fluctuation occur but are masked by the statistical fluc...

The turbulent flow in a Kenics Static Mixer (KSM) was intensified under the mutual-coupling effect between the twisted leaves and the tube-wall. In order to understand the intrinsic features of turbulent flow in KSM, the Hilbert-Huang Transform based on Empirical Mode Decomposition were first introduced to describe the time-frequency features of the pressure fluctuation. The Hilbert spectra of ...

To explore the influence of tip clearance on pressure fluctuation in a low specific speed mixed-flow pump, tip clearances δ of 0.25 mm, 0.75 mm and 1.00 mm, along with no tip clearance, were selected. The reliability of the simulation was verified by comparison with the experimental data of external characteristics and fluctuation in the guide vane passage. Through ANSYS-CFX, MATLAB code and fa...

Pressure fluctuation may cause high amplitude of vibration of double‐suction centrifugal pumps, but the impact of impeller stagger angles is still not well understood. In this paper, pressure fluctuation experiments are carried out for five impeller configurations with different stagger angles by using the same test rig system. Results show that the stagger angles exert negligible effects on th...

PURPOSE To evaluate and correlate the peaks and the fluctuation of intraocular pressure seen in the association of the ambulatory intraocular pressure curve with the water-drinking test versus the peaks and the fluctuation seen in the daily intraocular pressure curve. METHODS The sample was as follows: 77 eyes belonging to 77 patients who were divided into three groups composed of 31 eyes bel...
