Turbulent Events and Gas-Side Mass Transfer Coefficients in a Wavy Air-Water Stratified Flow [PDF]
Turbulence structure on the gas side of a wavy stratified flow was experimentally investigated in a near horizontal 18.7 cm (H) 10 cm (W) 5.5m (L) rectangular duct.By applying the Variable Interval Time Averaging (VITA) technique to the hot wire ...

Studies using wind tunnel to simulate the Atmospheric Boundary Layer at the Alcântara Space Center [PDF]
The Alcântara Space Center (ASC) region has a peculiar topography due to the existence of a coastal cliff, which modifies the atmospheric boundary layer characteristic in a way that can affect rocket launching operations.

Velocity profile under Shinkansen vehicle on slab track
Major sound sources remaining for Shinkansen, after the development and use of various noise reduction techniques, are the pantographs and bogies. Although aerodynamic sound generated from the bogies is highly influenced by air flow under the vehicle ...

Heat transfer from cylinders in subsonic slip flows [PDF]
The heat transfer in heated wires was measured using a constant temperature anemometer over a Mach number range from 0.05 to 0.4 and pressures from 0.5 to 8.0 atmospheres. The total temperature ranged from 80 to 120 F and the wire diameters were 0.00015,

Method of remotely characterizing thermal properties of a sample [PDF]
A sample in a wind tunnel is radiated from a thermal energy source outside of the wind tunnel. A thermal imager system, also located outside of the wind tunnel, reads surface radiations from the sample as a function of time.

Drag Force Anemometer Used in Supersonic Flow [PDF]
To measure the drag on a flat cantilever beam exposed transversely to a flow field, the drag force anemometer (beam probe) uses strain gauges attached on opposite sides of the base of the beam.
