Length To Diameter Ratio

This paper reports upon an experimental investigation of gas dynamic rarefaction waves in rarefaction wave tubes to determine effects of large length to diameter ratios. A fitted equation is presented from which reasonable predictions can be made on the pressure deviation between a real and an ideal rarefaction wave. Transient boundary-layer effects cause an attenuation of the pressure which becomes more pronounced as the length to diameter ratio is increased. At a length to diameter ratio of 895, the pressure damping was essentially complete in one cycle for initial pressure ratios in excess of 1.6.

The multi flexible body dynamical simulation model of dynamical vibration absorption lathe tool with large length to diameter ratio is built up according to the actual experiment lathe tool by using the software ADAMS and ANSYS. The experiment data which are consistent with the simulation result verify the correctness of the multi flexible body dynamical model. Aiming at reducing the peak value of system frequency response, the dynamical vibration absorption system is optimized. The optimized frequency curve shows that the system frequency response is improved obviously. On this basis the influence of the mass of heavy turning body on the vibration system is discussed. Also, the relationship of the mass of heavy turning body and the optimal system parameters including equivalent stiffness coefficient and equivalent viscous damping coefficient is studied. This offers the design considerations about the structure of the dynamical vibration absorption lathe tool with large length to diameter ratio.

The study described in this paper aims to quantify the effects of misalignment and directionality on the important performance characteristics of a double-plane admission bearing having a length to diameter ratio of unity. The results clearly demonstrate that misalignment does not seriously impair the bearing performance, as long as due allowance is made for its effect on clearance at the bearing ends. In practice, this impairment would rarely exceed 10 percent. The effect of directionality is also found to be of the same order of magnitude.

Length To Diameter Ratio

The dynamic simulation analysis method is adopted to investigate the dynamic damping characteristics of lathe tool with large length to diameter (L/D) ratio. The multi flexible body dynamical simulation model of dynamical damping lathe tool with large length to diameter ratio is built up according to the actual experiment lathe by using the software ADAMS and ANSYS. Simulation analysis of the multi flexible body dynamical model which has been optimized shows that the system damping performance is improved greatly. On this basis the relationship of rubber bush, mass body and vibration absorption cavity is discussed. And the result of the discussion indicates that the shape of rubber bush should be confirmed by repeatedly simulating the model.

The paper reports an experimental investigation of heat transfer in the closed-tube aerosyphon (aerated-thermosyphon) for a range of conditions representative of northern field applications. In particular, attention is focused on the effect of using tubes with heated lengths not only greater than the cooled lengths, but very much greater than the tube diameter. Using three heated sections and one cooled section, the geometry of the device has been varied systematically with 10 < LH/d < 50 and 1 < LH/LC < 20. For any given geometry, the effect of air bubbling rate has been studied in the range of 0 < V˙ < 5 × 10−5 m3/S. Using these ranges it has been possible to make comparisons with other thermosyphon and aerosyphon data. The results indicate that heat transfer coefficients are reduced by increasing either length-diameter ratio or heated-cooled length ratio. They also reveal that, in general terms, the aerosyphon is almost an order-of-magnitude more effective than the single-phase thermosyphon. Some obervations on the flow regimes are offered, and an empirical correlation is presented.

Length To Diameter Ratio

Purpose The hydrodynamic characteristics of liquid film for bearings, especially water-lubricated bearings with a large length-to-diameter ratio, affect the dynamics behavior of rotor bearing systems. The purpose of this study is to carry out theoretical analysis and experiments to determine the hydrodynamic characteristics of water-lubricated journal bearings. Design/methodology/approach The finite difference method is adopted for the simulation of the characteristics of water-lubricated bearings. The comparison results between water-lubricated bearings with and without grooves, as well as with and without the consideration of the effects of rubber deformation, are presented. The test bearings, test bench, and monitoring system, especially the force exciter for the bearing experiment, are presented. Dynamic coefficient identification verification experiments were performed in different working situations. The obtained results include the calibration of magnetic force, two kinds of excitation, vibration data of the rotor system and dynamic coefficients. Findings The theoretical results demonstrate that the hydrodynamic effect was obvious when the speed was increased and that the water film had improved capability at a working speed of 1800 rpm. The identification results reveal the lubrication situation of the test bearing under low-speed and high-load conditions. Moreover, it was found that the liquid film was not continuous at low speeds. Originality/value The theoretical results can lead to the enhancement of the design level of water-lubricated rubber journal bearings with a large aspect ratio. The experimental results can lead to the improvement of the dynamic behavior design of rotor systems supported using water-lubricated bearings with a large length-to-diameter ratio.

A theoretical and experimental investigation has been made of the static pressure hole problem in subsonic flow. Thanks to a linearization, the effects of the boundary layer, of the velocity gradient and of the wall curvature could be separated so that a formula of correction containing three influence functions has been obtained. These functions were determined in the case of practical requirements by means of experiments made on appropriate models for two values of the depth-to-diameter ratio and for at least three values of the Mach number. Then, the method of correction has been applied to the flow around an airfoil at zero angle of attack.

Length To Diameter Ratio

An analysis is performed, similar to the classical one for screens, of the effect of a honeycomb on a turbulent stream, when the cell length is large enough to permit the flow to become fully developed. The results indicate that a honeycomb should reduce the turbulence level of a stream passing through it more effectively than a screen, due to two effects: (a) The annihilation of the transverse fluctuation, dependent on the assumption of fully developed flow; (b) the effect of the mass of fluid in each cell, which must be accelerated to permit the passage of a fluctuation. The latter suggests that the honeycomb may be viewed as an inductive filter, if the screen is regarded as the fluid mechanical analogy of a resistive one. A small number of measurements in water are presented which lend quantitative support to the argument. Finally, design charts are presented, which permit calculation of the reduction to be expected from the placing of a given honeycomb in a given flow.
