In conveyors utilizing the principle of semi-self-flowing transportation, parts are put on a surface moving in the lateral direction by means of vibration or on two rollers rotating in opposite directions. Advantages of the latter one are that parts can be supplied on demand and a very small angle of inclination is required (less than 3°). Formulae found in scientific literature for the velocity of transportation as a function of the roller velocity give large discrepancies with experimental results. Extensive experimental modelling allows the dependence of the frictional coefficient on the shape of parts and the contact angle to be established. A new mathematical model of the conveyor has been developed and a new formula for the velocity of transportation has been derived, which is in good agreement with experimental data.

The dynamical response in the frequency range 50–1500 Hz is investigated of a railway wheelset resting on the track and excited vertically, laterally and longitudinally at a point of contact. A mathematical model of a railway wheelset is developed which comprises a few simple components to which analytical methods can be applied. Good agreement is obtained between experimental data and calculations made using this model. For a given sinusoidal displacement imposed between wheel and rail, the contact force is in general greatest longitudinally and least laterally.

The air-jet texturing process, a purely mechanical means of texturing continuous filament yarns, is described. Industrial texturing nozzles are reviewed and categorized in two groups, either as converging-diverging or cylindrical type nozzles. A mathematical model is developed for the complex airflow in cylindrical type texturing nozzles, and experimental data obtained from various nozzles verify the flow predicted by this model. The mathematical model is also shown to be in good agreement with the data obtained from a modified experimental nozzle, which has a trumpet shaped diverging exit. Further experimental work with a scaled-up model of a typical industrial texturing nozzle is also reported.

The pneumatic ABS pressure regulator of commercial vehicle is submitted to study in this paper. Its structure and operating principle are introduced, and a simulation model based on the AMESim is established on the basis of its mathematical model. Then the static characteristics and dynamic characteristics are researched by simulation model and the characteristic curves are compared with experimental data for the verification. The results show that simulation curves and experiment curves are in good agreement, which can be tolerated in the engineering.

In this paper the experiments conducted for the measurement of oil flow in the rotary compressor are described. The experimental data are compared against the theoretical prediction from the mathematical model developed (1) and a good agreement is found. In addition, experimental data from previously published literature are also used to verify the mathematical model. A sensitivity study is carried out to predict the behaviour of the rotary compressor for the oil flow at different conditions and with different dimensions.

Numerical prediction is performed on the reduction of wüstite under simulated blast furnace conditions using factorial design approach. Wüstite sinter samples with different basicity (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0) are reduced with a gas mixture consisting of 30% CO, 10% H2, 5% CO2, and 55% N2 at 950–1100°C. In all cases, the reduction degree of wüstite increased with basicity and temperature. A 23 factorial design is applied to derive a regression model based on the experimental data of acidic (CaO/SiO2 = 0.5) and basic (CaO/SiO2 = 2.0) wüstite which is reduced at 950°C and 1100°C for 5 and 35 min. The developed mathematical model is applied to predict the reduction degree of wüstite at different basicity (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0), interval of time (5–35 min), and temperatures (950, 1000, 1050°C, and 1100°C). In general, the results of the driven models are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data of reduction of wüstite in many cases. The MATLAB program is used to carry out the required calculations.

Cutting force is an important parameter in machining. The static balance method and experience formulas had been adopted to find its value, but the theoretical calculated value is not good agreement with the experimental value for the same set of cutting conditions. In practical machining, the cutting tool has obvious impact effect on workpiece, so a dynamics analytical model for cutting process is established in this paper. Based on the proposed solution, a new formula for cutting force has been obtained. The suggested formula has shown to correspond well with the experimental data.

A simple mathematical model is proposed to account for emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from three-layer building materials. The model considers both the diffusion within three layer building materials and the mass transfer resistance through the air boundary layer. A general solution method based on Laplace transform is presented. Compared to other models capable of accounting for emissions of VOCs from multi layer building materials, the present model is fully analytical instead of being numerical. The present model was validated by the experimental data from the specially designed test. The results indicated that there was a good agreement between the model predictions and the experimental data. It can also be seen from calculation that model ignoring the boundary layer resistance cannot fully reflect the real situation.

This paper presents a combustion model of nano- and microsized aluminum mixture frozen in water. The model takes into account combustion of aluminum particles in water vapor, the motion of combustion products, the temperature and velocity differences between particles and gas. The obtained results of the combustion rate depending on pressure and mass ratio between dispersed Al powders are in good agreement with the experimental data described in scientific literature.

A mathematical model of Stirling-type engines has been developed. The complexity of the problem has been reduced by analyzing the various components of the engine (heat exchangers, regenerator, and cylinders) separately for cyclically steady conditions, and by selecting pressure, temperature, and mass as the independent variables. The required piston displacements are a computed result. Losses due to flow friction, piston blow-by, and finite heat transfer rates have been accounted for by applying correction factors to the basic performance which is computed without these effects. The theory has been carried out for engines, but it is equally valid for refrigerators with minor modification. The theory is in good agreement with available experimental data.
