Tradeoffs in jet inlet design: a historical perspective

open access: yes, 2007
The design of the inlet(s) is one of the most demanding tasks of the development process of any gas turbine-powered aircraft. This is mainly due to the multi-objective and multidisciplinary nature of the exercise.

Numerical Investigations of the Effects of Sidewall Compression and Relaminarization in 3D Scramjet Inlet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper presents the numerical simulations and performance analysis of a 3D scramjet inlet with focus on the effects of sidewall compression and relaminarization. A well-validated finite volume flow solver was used to simulate a scramjet inlet with a

Effect of Various Inlet Distortion Patterns on Distortion Transfer and Generation at the Near-Stall Operating Point [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
An increased understanding of how inlet flow distortion affects transonic fans enables improved fan design and performance prediction. Inlet distortion refers to non-uniformities in the incoming flow properties.

Programmable Pneumatic Actuator System for a Bioinspired Artificial Colon

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A modular soft robotic colon simulator driven by programmable pneumatic actuation is developed to mimic physiological and pathological‐like motility patterns of the large intestine. Finite element–guided design and distributed control enable anatomically realistic deformation for peristalsis, segmentation, and mass movements, supporting capsule ...

Numerical and experimental analysis on the non-uniform inflow characteristics of a reactor coolant pump with a steam generator channel head

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2020
Distorted inflow caused by the complex structure of the steam generator channel head (SGCH) occurs at the entrance to the reactor coolant pump (RCP) in the AP1000 system, which may generate impeller cracks and result in deterioration of performance and ...

Microfabrication of Soft Millirobots Propelled by Low Voltage Electrohydraulic Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Manual layer‐by‐layer assembly is replaced by wafer‐level MEMS batch fabrication for compliant polymer‐based electrohydraulic actuators. The microfabricated devices integrate sacrificially defined microcavities, Parylene‐C‐sealed inlets, and multilayer polymer–metal films.

Inlet distortion, vorticity, and stall in an axial-flow compressor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
A new approach to defining inlet distortion factors for axial-flow compressors is presented. A summary of past analyses of inlet distortion, along with a brief review of flow-distortion definition and compressor performance, provides a background for ...

A U‐shaped Microfluidic Platform for Culturing Vascularized Colorectal Cancer Spheroids Reveals Tumor–Endothelial Crosstalk and Invasion‐Associated Remodeling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A closed U‐shaped microfluidic platform symmetrically embeds a single, size‐controlled HT29 colorectal cancer spheroid within a GFP‐HUVEC‐laden fibrin matrix. HT29 spheroids are associated with hyper‐branched endothelial network remodeling, while vascularized co‐culture is accompanied by anisotropic protrusive growth and EMT‐like marker changes in the ...

Study on the Effects of Inflow Conditions on the Inlet Performance of a Dorsal S-Shaped Inlet

open access: yesAerospace
As an important aerodynamic configuration of the new-generation UAV, the dorsal S-shaped inlet’s performance is affected by the complex coupling of inflow conditions and the boundary layer ingestion effect.
