The product of friction factor and Reynolds number (f·Re) of gaseous flow in the quasi-fully developed region of a micro-tube was obtained experimentally and numerically. The tube cutting method was adopted to obtain the pressure distribution along the tube. The fused silica tubes whose nominal diameters were 100 and 150 μm, were used. Two-dimensional compressible momentum and energy equations were solved to obtain the flow characteristics in micro-tubes. The numerical methodology is based on the Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method. The both results agree well and it was found that (f·Re) is a function of Mach number.

Axial Flow Compressors

The mechanism of mixing in axial flow compressors has been investigated in two low speed machines. For reasons of length this is described in two parts. Results in a 4-stage compressor are described here in Part I and show that the mixing coefficients across the first and the third stators are of similar magnitude. Part I also describes the background and experimental facilities and techniques used in both parts together with the nomenclature and all the references. Part II describes the results from a large single stage compressor. It also presents measurements of mixing in a simple two-dimensional duct, and presents conclusions for the whole investigation.

Surface Pressure Distribution

Recently some data from tests done on a cambered plate have been published. The shape of metal plate aerofoil tested matched that taken up by a flexible two-dimensional sail. The most striking result in the rneasurements was the waviness present near the leading edge in the upper surface pressure distribution. To find the theoretical conditions under which such a waviness would occur a parabolic skeleton aerofoil was investigated, as this shape differed little from the actual aerofoil tested.

The vortex gripper is a kind of pneumatic noncontact gripper that does not produce a magnetic field and heat. It can grip a workpiece without physical contact, which avoids any unintentional damage such as mechanical scratches, local stress concentrations, frictional static electricity, and surface stains. This study focused on the two-dimensional pressure distribution field on a workpiece surface under the vortex gripper. Theoretical, experimental, and computational fluid dynamics results were combined to study the backflow phenomenon in the annular skirt, which can decrease the gripper’s suction force after the maximum value is reached. First, the pressure distribution in the annular skirt was theoretically modeled. A comparison with the experimental results showed that increasing the gap height between the gripper and workpiece generates a circumferentially asymmetrical flow field in the skirt. Based on this, it was hypothesized that an airflow in the circumferential direction may exist. The experimental data and simulation results were analyzed under large gap height conditions to observe the backflow in detail and it was found that an uneven pressure distribution with positive and negative pressure regions generated by the uneven flow is the root cause of the backflow. Finally, the effect of the backflow on the flow field in two different flow regions (in the annular skirt and inside the vortex chamber) was analyzed and the reason why the suction force of the vortex gripper has a maximum value was determined.

This paper describes a method for calculating the shape of duct that leads to a prescribed pressure distribution on the duct walls. The proposed design method is computationally inexpensive, robust, and a simple extension of existing computational fluid dynamics methods; it permits the duct shape to be directly calculated by including the coordinates that define the shape of the duct wall as dependent variables in the formulation. This “direct design method” is presented by application to two-dimensional ideal flow in ducts. The same method applies to many problems in thermofluids, including the design of boundary shapes for three-dimensional internal and external viscous flows.

High Subsonic Flow

This paper deals with a hodograph method for design of turbine cascades in high subsonic flow and an approximate solution to a gas, specific heat ratio γ = −1 (the Karman-Tsien approximation) and γ > 1 (the gas obeying the adiabatic law). Numerical examples and a comparison of theoretical and measured pressure distribution for profiles designed by this method are given. Further, a better criterion for design to improve cascade efficiency is also presented.
