Unsteady behavior and mechanism of a rotating stall in a centrifugal compressor with vaneless diffuser

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2021
Unsteady diffuser stall behavior in a centrifugal compressor with a vaneless diffuser was investigated by experimental and computational analyses. The diffuser stall generated as the mass flow rate decreased. The diffuser stall cell rotated at 25-30 % of

Blade dynamic stress analysis of rotating bladed disks [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Computational Mechanics, 2007
The paper deals with mathematical modelling of steady forced bladed disk vibrations and with dynamic stress calculation of the blades. The blades are considered as 1D kontinuum elastic coupled with three-dimensional elastic disk centrally clamped into ...

A Theoretical Study of Ingress for Shrouded Rotating Disk Systems With Radial Outflow [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Turbomachinery, 1989
Sealing of the cavity formed between a stationary disk and a rotating disk under axisymmetric conditions is considered. A mathematical model of the flow in the cavity based on momentum integral methods is described and this is coupled to a simple model of the seal for the case when no ingress occurs.

Impeller Design of a Centrifugal Fan with Blade Optimization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rotating Machinery, 2011
A method is presented for redesigning a centrifugal impeller and its inlet duct. The double-discharge volute casing is a structural constraint and is maintained for its shape. The redesign effort was geared towards meeting the design volute exit pressure

Effects of Camber of S‐Series Airfoils on Aerodynamic Performance, Entropy Generation Rate, Irreversibility, and Second Law Efficiency of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Due to the depletion of fossil fuels, enhancing wind turbine efficiency is crucial. Utilizing airfoils with high lift‐to‐drag ratios significantly improves power generation by optimizing aerodynamic parameters. Furthermore, entropy generation analysis serves as an effective method for design optimization by minimizing energy losses and exergy ...

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...

Shaping the Flow: Impact of Blade Shape on Performance and Hemocompatibility in Rotodynamic Blood Pumps

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Blade shapes (leading‐edge geometry and thickness) in rotodynamic blood pumps were systematically evaluated. Thinner blades improve pump efficiency by reducing blockage effects, while neither blade thickness nor leading‐edge geometry shows clear hemocompatibility benefits. Overall, blade shape has a limited impact on hemocompatibility, indicating it is

The Intersectional Dynamics of Skill Underutilization: A Case Study of College‐Educated Iranian Migrant Women in California

open access: yesSociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There are paradoxical and sociological questions surrounding migrants of certain ethno‐national backgrounds—particularly women—whose high levels of education do not consistently translate into employment commensurate with their skills, resulting in what is commonly termed “brain waste.” This study critically examines the role of employer ...
