To make a better application of the self-excited oscillation jet, a compound organ–Helmholtz oscillation nozzle (OH nozzle) was designed to generate better pulse effects in the present study. The effects of geometric parameters on pressure characteristics of self-excited oscillation jets were investigated experimentally. The geometric parameters of OH nozzles were determined based on the design principle of the organ-pipe and Helmholtz nozzles. Various types of OH nozzles were tested to obtain the relationship between oscillation pressure and geometric parameters. Experimental results showed that some structural parameters are sensitive to the pump pressure, while others are not. The optimum geometric optimum parameters were obtained based on experimental results. The peak pressure and pressure pulsation amplitude are closely related to the target distance. The peak pressure decreases sharply with target distance at first and decreases with a further increase of the target distance. The peak pressure becomes stable beyond a certain range of target distance. With the increase of the target distance, the pressure pulsation amplitude increases at first and then decreases. The optimum target distance was determined based on experimental results to achieve better pulsation performance and has a value of 20 mm in the present study.

The primary goal of this work is to understand the deformation behavior of an aluminum alloy (Al) workpiece by using a rapid compression machine (RCM). The primary novelty in this work is that this is the first study on sheet metal forming using RCM. Numerical simulation and experimental results are in excellent agreement, e.g., the dome-shape, the maximum height, the final outer diameter, and the thickness distribution of the deformed workpiece. We demonstrate that the maximum deformation height grows linearly with the peak pressure with an intercept tending to zero. The proposed linear relationship can be effectively used for designing new components for a specific application. Moreover, the proposed numerical model was competent in reproducing the experimental results of damage initiation and evolution in case of high peak pressure as well as the initial misalignment of the workpiece. The results of this investigation revealed that a rapid compression machine can be utilized efficiently for the controlled forming of complex shapes of metal sheets.

A nonlinear dynamic model of a large flow solenoid is presented with the multi-physics dynamic simulation software called SimulationX. Validation is performed by comparing the experimental results with the simulated ones. The dynamic characteristics of the large flow solenoid valve are analyzed. Different structural parameters are modified in this research and the diameter of the orifice is proved to be one of the most important parameters which influences the pressure response most.

Abstract A combination of experimental and numerical simulation was carried out to analyze influence of trailing edge position of splitter blade on the pressure fluctuation in low specific pumps with and without splitter blades under different flow rates. Performance experiments and PIV tests were performed to verify the results of numerical calculation. Several monitor points were placed in the calculation model pump to collect the pressure fluctuation signals, which were processed by Fast Fourier Transform to obtain the frequency results for further analysis. Besides, turbulence intensity and relative velocity distribution were also analyzed in regions of impeller and volute. The results showed that compared with prototype without splitter blade and the splitter blade schemes, when the trailing edge of splitter blade deviates to the suction side of main blade, the maximum pressure pulsation amplitudes are the lowest at different monitoring points of model pump. And the variation of pressure pulsation amplitude in this scheme is relatively stable with the change of flow rates compared with other schemes. Furthermore, the splitter blade scheme with an appropriate trailing edge position has the lowest average turbulence intensity and optimal relative velocity distribution in main flow passage component. Therefore, this paper proposes a reference scheme of the trailing edge position of the splitter blade to effectively decrease predominate pressure pulsation amplitude.

Rolling contact fatigue depends essentially on both surface and subsurface populations of defects. First, this paper describes experimental results obtained in rolling contact fatigue tests in the presence of a furrow oriented transversally to the race-way. Then an attempt to predict theoretically the effect of geometric parameters of the furrow upon contact fatigue life is described.

The performance of a steam ejector was simulated using FLUENT. The performance of steam ejector was studied by changing the distance between primary nozzle outlet and mixing chamber inlet (DPM) while operating pressures and other geometric parameters were not varied. The entrainment ratios of the steam ejector with different values of DPM were calculated. The optimum range of DPM was given, which is changed from 1.8 to 2 times of the throat diameter of hybrid diffuser pipe. The errors of the CFD results to the experimental results of the entrainment ratio are not more than 15%.

The effect of the spiral angle on the heat transfer performance in micro-fin tube condensers has not yet been clearly established because other geometric parameters affecting the heat transfer performance were simultaneously varied in previous studies. This paper reports on the influence of the spiral angle on the heat transfer during condensation inside spiralled micro-fin tubes having all other geometric parameters constant. Tests were conducted for condensation of R-22, R-134a, and R-407C inside a smooth (9.52 mm outer diameter) and three micro-fin tubes with approximately the same diameter, having spiral angles of 10 deg, 18 deg, and 37 deg, respectively. Experimental results indicated a heat transfer augmentation with spiral angle increase. A new semi-empirical predictive correlation was developed for practical design of spiralled micro-fin tubes. The proposed new correlation predicted the majority of experimental results of the present study within a deviation zone of ±20%.

The dynamic characteristics of the self-excited oscillation pulsed jet is tested by using pulsed jet impact variable cross-section beam in submerged conditions and make comparison with continuous jet, analyzing the effects of operating parameters and nozzle structure parameters on the dynamic characteristics of the pulsed jet. The result show that the oscillating frequency of jet decreases with the increase of cavity length while increases with the increase of the pump pressure. The energy of pulsed jet has obvious change with different cavity length.

We successfully developed the potential parameters for simulation of MgB2. With these potential parameters, we calculate the lattice parameters and volume variations with pressure up to 240GPa. All these results agree well with experimental data under 40GPa and provide reasonable tendencies from 40GPa to 240GPa. By employing the McMillan expression, it is found that the lattice stiffening dominants the behavior of Tc under pressure in the scope of BCS theory. Using our calculated Grüneisen parameter G g , the simulated pressure effect on Tc accords well with experimental results. Our result shows that the Tc of MgB2 can be destroyed by high pressure.
