Numerical and experimental investigation of spiral-grooved gas journal bearings

Small-scale turbomachinery is increasingly used in carbon-free energy conversion systems, such as commercial or domestic scale heat pumps, fuels cells for transportation and waste heat recovery. The usage of aerodynamic bearings allows the design of compac ...

The dynamics and timescales of static stall

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest, Julien Dominique Claude Deparday

Airfoil stall plays a central role in the design of safe and efficient lifting surfaces. We typically distinguish between static and dynamic stall based on the unsteady rate of change of an airfoil’s angle of attack. Despite the somewhat misleading denotat ...

Analysis of Pitot tube Airflow Velocity Sensor Behavior in Blockage Situations

Ata Jedari Golparvar

Several airplanes crashes throughout the past decades are linked to the failure of the airplane flow velocity sensor known as pitot device or pitot tube. The study of its behavior in blockage, either due to human errors or due to environmental factors, cou ...

Time-Continuous Phosphorus Flows in the Indian Agri-Food Sector: Long-Term Drivers and Management Options

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

Phosphorus (P) is a major agricultural nutrient and, in its mineable form, a potentially scarce resource. Countries with limited physical access to P should hence develop an effective national P governance. This requires analyses of trends and variations i ...

Coexistence of Drift Waves and D'Angelo Modes at Different Position and Frequency in Linear Plasma Device

Minh Quang Tran, Nathan Dupertuis

Experimental plasma discharges in linear PANTA device are studied by Mach probe measurements, providing floating potential, ion saturation current, and parallel flow velocity time evolution, at different radii of the device. Spectral analysis indicates tha ...

Influence of Blade Aspiration on the Flow Quality of an Annular Axial Compressor Cascade

Peter Ott, Elia Colombo

Experimental and numerical investigations were performed in order to develop a technique of active flow control by aspiration applied to an annular axial compressor cascade. Continuous aspiration is applied through shaped slots located on the suction side ...

Effects of high-speed airflows on a surface dielectric barrier discharge

Christoph Hollenstein, Peter Ott, Pénélope Leyland, Samantha Pavon

A detailed study of the interaction between high-speed gas flows and surface dielectric barrier discharges (DBD) is presented. In the present paper, it is demonstrated that a DBD can be sustained in transonic airflows, up to isentropic Mach numbers of 1.1. ...

Dissipative processes in interchange driven scrape-off layer turbulence

Richard Pitts, Jonathan Graves, Jan Horacek

First principles expressions are given for the parameters governing collisional diffusion and parallel losses of mass, momentum and energy in tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL) plasmas. These dissipative, or damping, coefficients are based on neoclassical perp ...
