1. Introduction.— Travers and Jaquerod have recently carried out a series of measurements of the pressure coefficients of hydrogen and helium, and, in conjunction with Senter, have applied their results to the measurement of the vapour pressures of liquid oxygen and liqui hydrogen on the constant volume helium and hydrogen scales.*

Wind tunnel tests are carried out for the Commonwealth Advisory Aeronautical Research Council (CAARC) high-rise building with a scale of 1:400 in exposure categories D. The distribution law of extreme pressure coefficients under different conditions is studied. Probability distribution fitting is performed on the measured area-averaged extreme pressure coefficients. The general extreme value (GEV) distribution is preferred for probability distribution fitting of extreme pressure coefficients. From the comparison between the area-averaged coefficients and the value from GB50009-2012, it is indicated that the wind load coefficients from GB50009-2012 may be non-conservative for the CAARC building. The area reduction effect on the extreme wind pressure is smaller than that on the mean wind pressure from the code. The recommended formula of the area reduction factor for the extreme pressure coefficient is proposed in this study. It is found that the mean and the coefficient of variation (COV) for the directionality factors are 0.85 and 0.04, respectively, when the orientation of the building is given. If the uniform distribution is given for the building’s orientation, the mean value of the directionality factors is 0.88, which is close to the directionality factor of 0.90 given in the Chinese specifications.

Turbo pump is one of the elements with the most complex flow of liquid rocket engine, and as an important component of turbo pump, an impeller is the weak point affecting its reliability. In this study, a noncontact modal characteristic identification technique was proposed for the liquid oxygen pump impeller. Modal characteristics of the impeller under three different submerged media, air, pure water, and brine with same density as liquid oxygen, were tested based on the noncontact modal identification technology. Submersion state directly affects the modal frequencies and damping ratio. The transient vibration response characteristics of the impeller excited by the unsteady flow field was achieved combining with unsteady flow field analysis and transient dynamic analysis in the whole flow passage of the liquid oxygen pump. Vibration responses at different positions of the impeller show 10X and 20X frequencies, and the amplitude at the root of short blade is significant, which needs to be paid more attention in structural design and fatigue evaluation.

This article presents the effect of volute chamfering on the performance of a forward swept centrifugal fan. The numerical analysis is performed to obtain the performance parameters such as static pressure rise coefficient and total pressure coefficient for various flow coefficients. The chamfer ratio for the volute is optimized parametrically by providing a chamfer on either side of the volute. The influence of the chamfer ratio on the three dimensional flow domain was investigated numerically. The simulation is carried out using Re-Normalisation Group (RNG) k-[Formula: see text] turbulence model. The transient simulation of the fan system is done using standard sliding mesh method available in Fluent. It is found from the analysis that, configuration with chamfer ratio of 4.4 is found be the optimum configuration in terms of better performance characteristics. On an average, this optimum configuration provides improvement of about 6.3% in static pressure rise coefficient when compared to the base model. This optimized chamfer configuration also gives a higher total pressure coefficient of about 3% validating the augmentation in static pressure rise coefficient with respect to the base model. Hence, this numerical study establishes the effectiveness of optimally providing volute chamfer on the overall performance improvement of forward bladed centrifugal fan.

Thermal stress is present in metal–organic frameworks undergoing temperature changes during adsorption and desorption. We computed the thermal pressure coefficient as a proxy for this phenomenon and discuss the impact of thermal expansion mismatch.
