Aerothermal Investigation of the Effect of Endwall Structures on Radial Turbine Heat Losses

open access: yesEnergies
This paper presents a detailed numerical investigation of the effect of hub-mounted riblets on the thermal and aerodynamic performance of a radial turbine rotor. While prior studies have shown that riblets reduce wall shear stress and improve aerodynamic

Calibration of averaging total pressure flight wake rake and natural-laminar-flow airfoil drag certification [PDF]

open access: yes
An averaging total pressure wake rake used by the Cessna Aircraft Company in flight tests of a modified 210 airplane with a laminar flow wing was calibrated in wind tunnel tests against a five-tube pressure probe. The model generating the wake was a full-

Polymer/riblet combination for hydrodynamic skin friction reduction [PDF]

open access: yes
A process is disclosed for reducing skin friction and inhibiting the effects of liquid turbulence in a system involving the flow of a liquid along the surface of a body, e.g., a marine vehicle. This process includes injecting a drag reducing polymer into

Fine details in solar flare ribbons

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Flare ribbons serve as chromospheric footprints of energy deposition resulting from particle acceleration during magnetic reconnection. Their fine-scale structure provides a valuable tool for probing the dynamics of the flare reconnection ...

Late Cretaceous Limea (Pseudolimea) species of Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Four Limea (Pseudolimea) species [L. (Ps.) composita. L. (Ps.) granulata, L. (Ps.) denticulata, L. (Ps.) geinitzi] which occur frequently in Late Cretaceous strata of Europe, are redescribed.

Low-dimensional dynamics embedded in a plane Poiseuille flow turbulence : Traveling-wave solution is a saddle point ?

open access: yes, 1999
The instability of a streak and its nonlinear evolution are investigated by direct numerical simulation (DNS) for plane Poiseuille flow at Re=3000. It is suggested that there exists a traveling-wave solution (TWS).

Effects of Materials and Riblets on Erosion Mitigation Induced by Multiple Collapses of Cavitation Bubbles

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The current research investigates the effects of materials and riblets on cavitation-induced erosion morphology, depth, and cross-sectional area through experimental approaches. To achieve these aims, the erosion of pure aluminum (1xxxAl or Al) and alpha
