Study of NACA 0015 for Diffuser Design in Tidal Current Turbine Applications (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Design and testing of a contra-rotating tidal current turbine

A contra-rotating marine current turbine has a number of attractive features: near-zero reactive torque on the support structure, near-zero swirl in the wake, and high relative interrotor rotational speeds. Modified blade element modelling theory has been used to design and predict the characteristics of such a turbine, and a model turbine and test rig have been constructed. Tests in a towing t...

Verification of a CFD solver in near ground effect for aerodynamic behavior of airfoil NACA 0015

Numerical investigation was performed on NACA 0015 which is a symmetric airfoil. Pressure distribution and then lift and drag forces are verified. Changing of ground clearance was a considerable point. Also the angle of attack was changed from 0° to 10°. Pressure coefficient reaches its higher amounts on the wing lower surface when the ground clearance diminishes. Increment of the angle of atta...

technical and legal parameters for determination of river boundary,( case study haraz river)

چکیده با توسعه شهر نشینی و دخل و تصرف غیر مجاز در حریم رودخانه ها خسارات زیادی به رودخانه و محیط زیست اطراف آن وارده می شود. در حال حاضر بر اساس آئین نامه اصلاح شده بستر و حریم رودخانه ها، حریم کمی رودخانه که بلافاصله پس از بستر قرار می گیرد از 1 تا20 متر از منتهی الیه طرفین بستر رودخانه تعیین، که مقدار دقیق آن در هر بازه از رودخانه مشخص نیست. در کشورهای دیگر روشهای متفاوتی من جمله: درصد ریسک...

Earth’s Magnetic Field for Spacecraft Attitude Control Applications (TECHNICAL NOTE)

In this paper the earth’s magnetic field is simulated precisely while the intensity and direction of the field are verified with one of the standard references for selected points on the earth and the results are compared with some low-order models. In another simulation, the complete model is compared with a common approximate model. The magnetic field in orbital frame is described and to empl...
