Download or read book Unsteady Combustor Physics written by Tim C. Lieuwen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing clean, sustainable energy systems is a pre-eminent issue of our time. Most projections indicate that combustion-based energy conversion systems will continue to be the predominant approach for the majority of our energy usage. Unsteady combustor issues present the key challenge associated with the development of clean, high-efficiency combustion systems such as those used for power generation, heating or propulsion applications. This comprehensive study is unique, treating the subject in a systematic manner. Although this book focuses on unsteady combusting flows, it places particular emphasis on the system dynamics that occur at the intersection of the combustion, fluid mechanics and acoustic disciplines. Individuals with a background in fluid mechanics and combustion will find this book to be an incomparable study that synthesises these fields into a coherent understanding of the intrinsically unsteady processes in combustors.
Download or read book Global Stability Analysis of Shear Flows written by Rameshkumar Bhoraniya and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-10 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the fundamentals and advanced research on the global stability analysis of the shear flows. The contents investigate the results of global stability analysis for different configurations of internal and external shear flows. The topics covered are global stability analysis of converging-diverging channel flows, axisymmetric boundary layer developed on a circular cylinder, cone and inclined flat-plate boundary layer, and wall jets. It further explains the effect of divergence, convergence, transverse curvature, and pressure gradients on the global stability of the different configurations of shear flows. The book is a valuable reference for beginners, researchers, and professionals working in the field of aerodynamics and marine hydrodynamics.

Download or read book Hydrodynamic Instability and Transition to Turbulence written by Akiva M. Yaglom and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a complete revision of the part of Monin & Yaglom's famous two-volume work "Statistical Fluid Mechanics: Mechanics of Turbulence" that deals with the theory of laminar-flow instability and transition to turbulence. It includes the considerable advances in the subject that have been made in the last 15 years or so. It is intended as a textbook for advanced graduate courses and as a reference for research students and professional research workers. The first two Chapters are an introduction to the mathematics, and the experimental results, for the instability of laminar (or inviscid) flows to infinitesimal (in practice "small") disturbances. The third Chapter develops this linear theory in more detail and describes its application to particular problems. Chapters 4 and 5 deal with instability to finite-amplitude disturbances: much of the material has previously been available only in research papers.

Book excerpt: Magnetic control of the properties and the flow of liquids is a challenging field for basic research and for applications. This book is meant to be both an introduction to, and a state-of-the-art review of, this topic. Written in the form of a set of lectures and tutorial reviews, the book addresses the synthesis and characterization of magnetic fluids, their hydrodynamical description and their rheological properties. The book closes with an account of magnetic drug targeting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary: An experimental and theoretical study has been made of the two-dimensional transonic flow past a 12° wedge airfoil with lower surface inclined 13° to the air stream. The experimental portion of the study consists of surveys of the flow field about the leading edge in a closed throat tunnel near choking Mach number by means of an X-ray densitometer. From these surveys various features have been determined; namely, the location of the stagnation point, the location of the sonic line, the size of the separation bubble on the upper surface, and the value of the Mach number at the bubble edge. These features were relatively insensitive to changes in Reynolds number in the range from 1X106 to 3X106 based on chord. The theoretical portion of the study consists of the calculation by relaxation methods of an unbounded, inviscid, two-dimensional flow about a portion of the same body at a free-stream Mach number of exactly unity. The calculations yield a separation bubble on the upper surface which has a shape shown to be compatible with known theoretical conditions for viscous attachment to the upper surface of the body. Agreement between theoretically calculated and the experimentally determined features of the flow was good in regions where the local Mach number was 2 or less. In regions of higher local Mach number the agreement was fair. The theoretically determined Mach number on the bubble edge was 2.80 whereas the experimentally determined value was 2.30. The theoretically determined length of the separation bubble was 1.54-percent chord whereas the experimentally determined length was about 5-percent chord. The theoretically determined location of the stagnation point was 0.16-percent chord from the leading edge whereas the experimentally determined location was at 0.56-percent chord. The experience gained in studying the flow suggests the possibility that the solution obtained is not unique and that another solution in better agreement with experiment might exist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microhydrodynamics: Principles and Selected Applications presents analytical and numerical methods for describing motion of small particles suspended in viscous fluids. The text first covers the fundamental principles of low-Reynolds-number flow, including the governing equations and fundamental theorems; the dynamics of a single particle in a flow field; and hydrodynamic interactions between suspended particles. Next, the book deals with the advances in the mathematical and computational aspects of viscous particulate flows that point to innovations for large-scale simulations on parallel computers. The book will be of great use to students in engineering and applied mathematics. Students and practitioners of chemistry will also benefit from this book.
