We perform a numerical analysis of the decelerated swirling flow into the discharge cone of a model Francis turbine operated at variable discharge and constant head, using an axisymmetric turbulent swirling flow model and a corresponding simplified computa ...
The powder-blasting method is used to fabricate structures with a three-dimensional topography in glass using elastomeric masks. The relation between the mask opening width and the erosion depth is exploited to fabricate microstructures with varying depth ...
In order to fully characterize the performance of the colloid thruster system the electrospray (ES) beam must itself be fully characterized. This may be achieved by measuring various properties such as flow rate, current, droplet/ion charge to mass ratio a ...
An experimental and numerical investigation of boundary layer suction (BLS) on a transonic compressor blade has been conducted. The objective of the present work is to identify the possible benefit of boundary layer suction via a slot in the region of the ...
Low pressure plasma spraying (LPPS) is a thermal spraying technique that has found a niche for low oxidation products. It uses a low pressure environment (i.e:, chamber pressure between 2 and 90 kPa) and yields supersonic plasma jets. The enthalpy probe te ...
The design, modeling, fabrication, and characterization of solid propellant microthrusters for space application is presented. The operational concept of solid propellant thruster is simply based on the combustion of a solid energetic material stored in a ...
It is well known that the steady state of an isentropic flow in a dual-throat nozzle with equal throat areas is not unique. In particular there is a possibility that the flow contains a shock wave, whose location is determined solely by the initial conditi ...
A numerical and experimental investigation of the shock-IGV (inlet guide vane) interaction in a transonic compressor is conducted at the Laboratoire de Thermique Appliquée et de Turbomachines (LTT) at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Th ...
Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) of the turbulent compressible ow within heated curved ducts of square cross section are presented. The aim here is to predict the three- dimensional structures which develop inside cooling channels of rocket engines and study t ...
A variety of techniques are being tested on ASDEX Upgrade for avoiding or reducing the divertor energy load caused by ELMs. Quiescent H-mode operation has been improved by operation with recently boronized vessel walls. Z(eff) values in QH-modes are now si ...
