A streamline curvature method for calculating S1 surface flow in turbines is presented. The authors propose a simple method in which a domain of calculation can be changed into an orderly rectangle without making coordinate transformations. Calculation results obtained on subsonic and transonic turbine cascades have been compared with those of experiment and another theory. Good agreement has been found. When calculating blade-to-blade flow velocity at subsonic speed, a function approximation technique can be used in lieu of iteration method in order to reduce calculation time. If the calculated flow section is of a mixed (subsonic-supersonic) flow type, a Boolean expression obtained from the truth table of flow states is proposed to judge the integrated character of the mixed flow section. Similarly, another Boolean expression is used to determine whether there exists a “choking” of the relevant section. Periodical conditions are satisfied by iterating the first-order derivative of stagnation streamline, which is formed simultaneously. It can be proved that the stagnation streamline formed in this way is unique.

Fluid injection at the tip of highly loaded compressor rotors is known to be effective in suppressing the onset of rotating stall and eventually compressor instability. However, using such stability enhancement methods in a multistage compressor might not only stabilize certain stages but has also an impact on radial and axial matching. In order to account for tip injection during the early stages of compressor design, this paper focuses on the development of a method to model the physical effects underlying tip injection within a streamline curvature method. With the help of system identification it could be shown that a rotor subject to the discrete jets of tip injection adapts to the varying flow conditions according to a first order model. This information was used to generate a time-dependent input for the steady equations used with a streamline curvature method and eventually to model the unsteady response of the rotor to tip injection. Comparing the results obtained with the enhanced streamline curvature model to measurement results, good agreement could be shown which raised confidence that the influence of tip injection on axial and radial matching was sufficiently captured.

Roll wear model for Hot Strip Mill (HSM) was researched and the factors affect roll wear are analyzed. The simulation program was compiled by program visual C++ language and work roll wear was calculated according to the rolling schedule. Calculation results shows that roll wear like box shape. Strip width affects roll wear clearly. The strip length is one of the important issues which affect roll wear. Work roll wear of F7 top roll middle get to 280μm after a rolling schedule. Roll wear curve calculated by program were good agreement with the wear curve got by high-precision grinder. The results show that the roll wear model has high accuracy.

Motivated by the Kronecker product approximation technique, we have developed a very simple method to assess the inseparability of bipartite quantum systems, which is based on a realigned matrix constructed from the density matrix. For any separable state, the sum of the singular values of the matrix should be less than or equal to $1$. This condition provides a very simple, computable necessary criterion for separability, and shows powerful ability to identify most bound entangled states discussed in the literature. As a byproduct of the criterion, we give an estimate for the degree of entanglement of the quantum state.

The bearing capacities of one-way reinforced concrete beams with elastic supports are investigated in this paper. According to the nonlinear characteristics of the beams, the basic equations based on plastic theory of concrete are derived by considering the in-plane force effects that aroused by the constraints of supports when the beams deforming. It is indicated that the calculation results are in good agreement with experimental datum, and the influences of different supports on the bearing capacities of the beams are quantitatively given for the first time.

In the present work Miedema model has been developed, and the formation enthalpy of Mg-Zn alloys and the activity curve of Zn in Mg-Zn alloy at 1000K have been calculated according to the Miedema model. The calculation results showed that the formation enthalpy of Mg-Zn was small, and the excess entropy attributes a lot to the result. When excess enthopy was considered, the calculation results were found to be in good agreement with the experimental values.

Inviscid, compressible flow along a rotating elemental stream-tube is taken as a model for flow through a turbomachine blade passage. For this model an analytic expression for the relative secondary vorticity of the flow is derived which permits the mean stream-surface twist about the tube axis to be evaluated. This twist implies a migration of the fluid particles from one tube corner to the contiguous tube corner, a flow feature suppressed by all existing stream-sheet flow calculations in turbomachine blade rows. The analysis is applied to a centrifugal compressor configuration where the effects on the secondary flow of hub/shroud geometry, blade shape, compressibility, and meridional diffusion are investigated. The stream-surface twist, not being primarily dependent upon the elemental nature of the stream-tube is taken as a measure of stream-surface twist and consequent surface flow migration in finite blade passages. The levels of twist obtained from the analysis are similar to those obtained in three dimensional flow calculations using primitive variables as illustrated by Bosman (1) (2)‡ and show that existing streamsheet and streamsheet stacking methods, all of which suppress the relative passage vortex are an inadequate model of the flow in centrifugal compressors. The analysis clearly shows that contrary to common assumption, centrifugal compressor impellers are capable of generating a passage vortex in the same direction as that of blade rotation.

The mathematical model of kinematic wave, that is widely used in hydrological calculations, is generalized to compute processes in deformable channels. Self-similar solutions to the kinematic wave equations, namely, the discontinuous wave of increase and the “simple” wave of decrease are generalized. A numerical method is proposed for solving the kinematic wave equations for deformable channels. The comparison of calculation results with self-similar solutions revealed a good agreement.

Abstract Due to an increasing number of heavy rainfall events, the managing of urban flooding requires new design approaches in urban drainage engineering. With bidirectional coupled numerical models the surface runoff, the underground sewer flow and the interaction processes between both systems can be calculated. Most of the numerical models use a weir equation to calculate the surface to sewer flow with unsurcharged flow conditions, but uncertainties still exist in the representation of the real flow conditions. Street inlets, existing in different types, are the connecting elements between the surface and the underground system. In the present study, an empirical formula was developed based on physical model test runs to estimate the hydraulic capacity and type-specific efficiency of grate inlets with supercritical surface flow. Influencing hydraulic parameters are water depth and flow velocity upstream of the grate and, in addition, different geometrical parameters are taken into account, such as the grate dimensions or the orientation of the bars (transverse, longitudinal or diagonal). Good agreement between estimated and measured results could be proven with relative deviations less than 1%.

A three-dimensional numerical model was used to model water circulation and spatial variation of temperature in Lake Sperillen in Norway. A winter situation was simulated, with thermal stratification and ice cover. The numerical model solved the Navier-Stokes equations on a 3D unstructured non-orthogonal grid with hexahedral cells. The SIMPLE method was used for the pressure coupling and the k-ε model was used to model turbulence, with a modification for density stratification due to the vertical temperature profile. The results were compared with field measurements of the temperature in the lake, indicating the location of the water current. Reasonably good agreement was found.
