A thorough investigation of the existing texturing nozzles will, no doubt, lead to the design of improved nozzles. This paper reports the experimental research carried on the scaled-up versions of the T100 HemaJet with varying geometrical configurations, being the exit shape, situation, and inclination of the inlet holes, and the ratio of the incoming holes area to the nozzle’s main duct area. It has been found that the exit shape has virtually no effect on the airflow whilst other parameters contribute to the formation of the emerging jet which performs the texturing.

Cyclones are widely used for separating particles from gas in energy production objects. The efficiency of conventional centrifugal air cleaning devices ranges from 85 to 90%, but the weakness of many cyclones is the low collection efficiency of particles less than 10 μm in diameter. The novelty of this work is the research of the channel-type treatment device, with few levels adapted for precipitation of fine particulate matter, acting by a centrifugal and filtration principle. Many factors have an impact on cyclone efficiency—humidity, temperature, gas (air) composition, airflow velocity and etc. Many scientists evaluated only the effect of origin and size of PM on cyclone efficiency. The effect of gas (air) composition and temperature, and humidity on the multi-channel cyclone-separator efficiency still demands contributions. Complex theoretical and experimental research on air flow parameters and the efficiency of a cylindrical eight-channel system with adjustable half-rings for removing fine-dispersive particles (<20 μm) was carried out. The impact of air humidity and temperature on air flow, and gaseous smoke components on the removal of wood ashes was analyzed. The dusty gas flow was regulated. During the experiment, the average velocity of the cyclone was 16 m/s, and the temperature was 20–50 °C. The current paper presents experimental research results of wood ash removal in an eight-channel cyclone and theoretical methodology for the calculation of airflow parameters and cyclone effectiveness.

This work focuses on the numerical and experimental study of convective heat transfer in a rotor of a discoidal the machine with an eccentric impinging jet. Convective heat transfers are determined experimentally in steady state on the surface of a single rotating disk. The experimental technique is based on the use of infrared thermography to access surface temperature measurement, and on the numerical resolution of the energy equation in steady-state, to evaluate local convective coefficients. The results from the numerical simulation are compared with heat transfer experiments for rotational Reynolds numbers between 2.38×105 and 5.44×105 and for the jet's Reynolds numbers ranging from 16.5×103 to 49.6 ×103. A good agreement between the two approaches was obtained in the case of a single rotating disk, which confirms us in the choice of our numerical model. On the other hand, a numerical study of the flow and convective heat transfer in the case of an unconfined rotor-stator system with an eccentric air jet impinging and for a dimensionless spacing G=0.02, was carried out. The results obtained revealed the presence of different heat transfer zones dominated either by rotation only, by the air flow only or by the dynamics of the rotation flow superimposed on that of the air flow. Critical radii on the rotor surface have been identified

Pneumatic transport is one of the most progressive means of mechanization and automation of loose goods transportation. It is used in aluminium, chemical, food, textile, construction and other industries. However, wide use of pneumatic transport is limited by the incomplete information on this subject. In this article provides a description of the design of useful models of the suction intake device пневмотранспортной installation. A useful model was developed with the participation of the author of the staff of the Department of transport and technological machines architectural-building University. The author has developed stages of the suction intake unit and carried out theoretical and experimental research on each step to achieve the most effective operation of the device. In view of the fact that for the main parameters of the suction intake devices of the theory of destroying the fabric of a flooded the air flow is not developed to a sufficient degree, the author has studied the process of propagation and interaction of flooded jet with the surface. The article systematized and presents the results of experimental research on the interaction of flooded jets of air sealing with building materials of different kinds. The author determined the optimal parameters of the process of packed loosening material jets of compressed air at the fence material suction fence device.

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.

An experimental research method and an analysis of the results of a water droplet phase change in the additionally humidified air flow are presented. The diagrams of variation of the equivalent diameter of convectively heated water droplets are presented and analysed. The influence of initial water temperature and additionally humidifying air flow on the phase change of a droplet in transient regime is experimentally substantiated.
