Download or read book Thermodynamics and Gas Dynamics of the Stirling Cycle Machine written by Allan J. Organ and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1992-08-20 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1992 book provides a coherent and comprehensive treatment of the thermodynamics and gas dynamics of the practical Stirling cycle. Invented in 1816, the Stirling engine is the subject of worldwide research and development on account of unique qualities - silence, indifference to heat source, low level of emissions when burning conventional fuels and an ability to function in reverse as heat pump or refrigerator. The student of engineering will discover an instructure and illuminating case study revealing the interactions of basic disciplines. The researcher will find the groundwork prepared for various types of computer simulation, Those involved in the use and teaching of solution methods for unsteady gas dynamics problems will find a comprehensive treatment on nonlinear and linear wave approaches, for the Stirling machine provides an elegant example of the application of each. The book will be of use to all those involved in researching, designing or manufacturing Stirling prime movers, coolers and related regenerative thermal machines.

This book was released on 1949 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Part 1 a point-by-point method is developed for the calculation of unsteady flows through tubes with variable cross sections containing strong shocks and large temperature contact discontinuities. In Part 2 calculations are made of the flow pattern created by bursting into a vacuum of a diaphragm at the minimum section of a supersonic nozzle without a second throat. In Part 3 integral relationships are developed which describe as a whole the behavior of unsteady flow disturbances of large and small amplitudes. The invariant integrals are the conservation laws for the potential, pulse area, mass, and energy.

This book was released on 2012-02-13 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the papers included in the proceedings of the 1st International Workshop on High-speed and Intercity Railways (IWHIR 2011) held in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, China from July 19 to July 22, 2011, which is organized by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, in collaboration with Southwest Jiaotong University, Beijing Jiaotong University, Dalian Jiaotong University, China Engineering Consultants, Inc., Zhejiang University, and Tsinghua University. Continuing the great initiatives and momentums of the rapid development in high-speed and intercity railways worldwide in recent years, IWHIR 2011 aims at providing a platform for academic scholars and practicing engineers to share knowledge and experience, to promote collaboration, and to strengthen R&D activities related to railway engineering. Engineers, scientists, professors, and students from universities, research institutes, and related industrial companies have been cordially invited to participate in the workshop. These papers have covered a wide range of issues concerning high-speed and intercity railways in the theoretical, numerical, and experimental work pertaining to high-speed and intercity railways. Showcasing diversity and quality, these papers report the state-of-the-art and point to future directions of research and development in this exciting area.

Download or read book Fluid Dynamics for the Study of Transonic Flow written by Heinrich J. Ramm and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book leads readers step-by-step through the complexities encountered as moving objects approach and cross the sound barrier. The problems of transonic flight were apparent with the very first experimental flights of scale-model rockets when the disastrous impact of shock waves and flow separations caused the aircraft to spin wildly out of control. Today many of these problems have been overcome, and this book offers an introduction to the transonic theory that has made possible many of these advances. The emphasis is on the most important basic approaches to the solution of transonic problems. The book also includes explanations of common pitfalls that must be avoided. An effort has been made to derive the most important equations of inviscid and viscous transonic flow in sufficient detail so that even novices may feel confident in their problem-solving ability. The use of computer approaches is reviewed, with references to the extensive literature in this area, while the critical shortcomings of an exclusive reliance on computational methods are also described. The book will be valuable to anyone who needs to acquire an understanding of transonic flow, including practicing engineers as well as students of fluid mechanics.
