This paper discusses the development of calculation complex (model, algorithm and software) needed to investigate vibration parameters (amplitudes of displacements, internal forces and support responses) of a constant cross-section pipeline with a perfect incompressible fluid flowing inside it. This paper presents a pipeline model as quasi-monomeric finite-element system. Presently, the study discusses vibration of a straight constant cross-section pipeline resting on two elastic supports. Calculation algorithm is based on the discrete variant of partial-response method. The effect of fluid flow is taken into account as an additional inertial load incorporated, in its turn, by means of corrections and modifications of inertia & stiffness parameters of pipeline model. The study gives calculation expressions for partial responses and partial parameters, needed to implement the algorithm suggested by the authors. The problem formulated in this paper was solved as per specially developed mathematical model taking into account the forces due to the flow in the pipe. The paper also suggests calculation algorithm for vibration parameters of the adopted model. These vibration parameters were obtained in specially developed Koriolis software. The study also investigated the effect of additional inertial load components upon vibration parameters and natural frequencies of the structure at question. All these activities made it possible to accomplish the task of the whole study, i.e. to develop the calculation complex for determination of pipeline vibration parameters.

Для расчета параметров вибрации трубопроводов (амплитуды смещений, внутренних усилий и опорных реакций) разработаны модель, алгоритм и программа. Модель – квазиодномерная конечноэлементная система. Алгоритм расчета построен на базе метода парциальных откликов в его дискретном варианте. Выведены формулы для парциальных откликов и парциальных параметров, необходимые при реализации предложенного алгоритма. Влияние протекающей жидкости учтено приложением дополнительной инерционной нагрузки, которая, в свою очередь, учитывается коррекцией и модификацией инерционно-жесткостных характеристик модели трубопровода. В качестве примера рассмотрена задача о вибрации прямого трубопровода постоянного поперечного сечения, опирающегося на две опоры. Выполнено исследование влияния составляющих инерционной нагрузки на параметры вибрации, значения собственных частот и величину критической скорости жидкости. Оценена сходимость процесса в случае необходимости применения метода последовательных приближений. To analyze vibration parameters of the pipeline (displacement amplitudes, internal forces, and support reactions) the model, algorithm, and program were created. The model is a quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) finite element system. The calculation algorithm is based on the discrete version of the partial responses method. Formulas for partial responses and partial parameters necessary for the implementation of the proposed algorithm were derived. The influence of the flowing liquid is compensated by applying an additional inertial load, which, in turn, is taken into account by correcting and modifying the inertia-stiffness characteristics of the pipeline model. The problem of the vibration of a straight pipeline of a constant cross-section with two points of support is given as an example. The influence of inertial load components on vibration parameters, own frequency values, and the critical velocity of the liquid were studied. The convergence of the process in case of using method of successive approximations was estimated.

In this study, the seismic behavior of the concrete shear wall considering the opening with different shapes and constant cross-section has been studied, and for this purpose, several shear walls are placed under the increasingly non-linear static analysis (Pushover). These case studies modeled in 3D Abaqus Software, and the results of the ductility coefficient, hardness, energy absorption, added resistance, the final shape, and the final resistance are compared to shear walls without opening.

The general problem of condensation in a variable acceleration field was investigated analytically. The case of the linear variation, which occurs in a constant cross section, rotating thermosyphon, was treated in detail. The results show that the condensate thickness and Nusselt numbers approach limiting values as the radial distance increases. The effects of the temperature differential and the Prandtl number are similar to those in other condensation problems; i.e., the heat transfer increases slightly with increasing temperature differential if Pr > 1, but it decreases with increasing temperature differential if Pr ≪ 1.

This paper considers the effect of continuous convection from small sources of buoyancy on the properties of the environment when the region of interest is bounded. The main assumptions are that the entrainment into the turbulent buoyant region is at a rate proportional to the local mean upward velocity, and that the buoyant elements spread out at the top of the region and become part of the non-turbulent environment at that level. Asymptotic solutions, valid at large times, are obtained for the cases of plumes from point and line sources and also periodically released thermals. These all have the properties that the environment is stably stratified, with the density profile fixed in shape, changing at a uniform rate in time at all levels, and everywhere descending (with ascending buoyant elements).The analysis is carried out in detail for the point source in an environment of constant cross-section. Laboratory experiments have been conducted for this case, and these verify the major predictions of the theory. It is then shown how the method can be extended to include more realistic starting conditions for the convection, and a general shape of bounded environment. Finally, the model is applied quantitatively to a variety of problems in engineering, the atmosphere and the ocean, and the limitations on its use are discussed.

In order to study the influence rule of wrap angle of blade on the internal flow field and hydraulic performance of double suction pump, 5 kinds of wrap angles of blade with 100°, 110°, 120°, 130° and 140° are designed in this paper. The turbulence model and the grid type are analyzed, the performance of ES350-575 double suction pump is obtained by employ the software CFX. The static pressure and velocity distributions in the cross-section are analyzed. Therefore, the optimal model is obtained, and the relevant external characteristic test is conducted. The result shows that the reasonable increase of the wrap angle of blade can enhance the performance of the pump effectively, which can improve the static pressure and velocity distributions of the internal flow field.

This work introduces a similarity solution to the problem of a viscous, incompressible and rotational fluid in a right-cylindrical chamber with uniformly porous walls and a non-circular cross-section. The attendant idealization may be used to model the non-reactive internal flow field of a solid rocket motor with a star-shaped grain configuration. By mapping the radial domain to a circular pipe flow, the Navier–Stokes equations are converted to a fourth-order differential equation that is reminiscent of Berman’s classic expression. Then assuming a small radial deviation from a fixed chamber radius, asymptotic expansions of the three-component velocity and pressure fields are systematically pursued to the second order in the radial deviation amplitude. This enables us to derive a set of ordinary differential relations that can be readily solved for the mean flow variables. In the process of characterizing the ensuing flow motion, the axial, radial and tangential velocities are compared and shown to agree favourably with the simulation results of a finite-volume Navier–Stokes solver at different cross-flow Reynolds numbers, deviation amplitudes and circular wavenumbers.

Abstract This paper calls attention to a new method of dealing with deflections of beams, the cross sections of which vary by steps. It is shown that the effect of this variation on the shape of the deflection curve can be represented by a properly chosen force system acting on a beam of uniform cross section. There is no approximation involved in this substitution, whereby the original problem is reduced to one of computing deflections of beams of constant cross section.

Abstract Flow patterns for compressible fluids at supersonic velocities are discussed, and it is shown that shock fronts form when neighboring Mach lines (envelopes of wave fronts originating from point disturbances) intersect. A criterion for divergence of Mach lines is developed for cases in which the passage is symmetrical in two or three dimensions and has a straight axis. This criterion is used as the basis for designing supersonic nozzles and diffusers. The analysis indicates that only a nozzle of infinite length can discharge a parallel stream into a tube of constant cross section without the formation of shock fronts. Methods are presented for designing nozzles of finite length, with the intensity of shock fronts reduced to as small a value as possible, and it is shown that nozzles of reasonable length may be designed so that shock fronts are insignificant. Experimental observations indicate that the proposed method of nozzle design is a practical one. With regard to supersonic diffusers having a straight axis, it is shown that shock fronts cannot be avoided, even though the diffuser is of infinite length. However, the methods of this paper may be used as an aid in determining the best diffuser design.

Abstract A compressible flow with wall friction has been predicted in a constant cross-section duct by means of a barotropic modelling approach, and new analytical formulas have been proposed that also allow any possible heat transfer to the walls to be taken into account. A comparison between the distributions of the steady-state flow properties, pertaining to the new formulas, and to those of a classic Fanno analysis has been performed. In order to better understand the limits of the polytropic approach in nearly chocked flow applications, a numerical code, which adopts a variable polytropic coefficient along the duct, has been developed. The steady-state numerical distributions along the pipe, obtained for either a viscous adiabatic or an inviscid diabatic flow by means of this approach, coincide with those of the Fanno and Rayleigh models for Mach numbers up to 1. A constant polytropic exponent can be adopted for a Fanno flow that is far from choking conditions, while it cannot be adopted for the simulation of a Rayleigh flow, even when the flow is not close to choking conditions. Finally, under the assumption of diabatic flows with wall friction, the polytropic approach, with a constant polytropic exponent, is shown to be able to accurately approximate cases in which no local maximum is present for the temperature along the duct. The Mach number value at the location where the local maximum temperature possibly occurs has been obtained by means of a new analytical formula.
