Unsteady Flow and Whirl-Inducing Forces in Axial-Flow Compressors: Part I—Experiment [PDF]
An experimental and theoretical investigation has been conducted to evaluate the effects seen in axial-flow compressors when the centerline of the rotor is displaced from the centerline of the static structure of the engine.

Pre-Whirl Flow and Its Control in a Cross Flow Fan
In a previous paper, the effect of angle and length of the inlet guide vane on the performance of a cross-flow fan was examined. By installing a guide vane having one sheet in the tongue division side in the suction region, the performance of the cross ...

Scaling laws of flow structures around geometrically similar fire whirls
This paper discusses the scaling laws of the flow structures around geometrically similar fire whirls, an insight that will be necessary when applying laboratory-scale data to real-scale fire whirls in urban or wildland fires.

Unstable outer cylinder whirl of concentric double rotating cylinder system
This research investigates unstable outer cylinder whirl in a double rotating cylinder system, with both co- and counter-rotation, in which the axis of the outer cylinder is supported elastically in the radial direction and the axis of the inner cylinder

Comparison of the Flow Inside Whirling and Non‐Whirling Smooth Annular Seals at 50% Eccentricity [PDF]
The flow field inside whirling (whirl ratio51) and non-whirling seals can be dramatically different. The statically eccentric seal is dominated by viscous drag which is responsible for generating the azimuthal velocity inside the seal and the turbulence. Conversely, the whirling seal produces the azimuthal velocity component by pushing the fluid by the

Experimental Study on Vibration of a Rotating Pipe in Still Water and in Flow
To illustrate the vibration characteristics of a rotating pipe in flow, experiments were conducted for a pipe in flow, a rotating pipe in still water and a rotating pipe in flow. For the pipe in flow without rotation, the trajectory diagram is ‘8’ shaped.
