Analytical expressions correlating the volumetric flow rate to the inlet and outlet pressures are derived for the time-independent flow of Newtonian fluids in cylindrically-shaped elastic tubes using a one-dimensional Navier-Stokes flow model with two pressure-area constitutive relations. These expressions for elastic tubes are the equivalent of Poiseuille and Poiseuille-type expressions for ri...

In this article, the performance of double corrugated tubes applied in a tube-in-shell heat exchanger is analysed and compared to equipped with straight tubes. The CFD (computational fluid dynamics) analysis was performed considering turbulent flow regime at several mass rates. It observed that geometry does not have significant impact on pressure drop inside exchanger, while it has potential i...

Abstract A three-dimensional model of intense bunched beams is developed for cylindrical and corrugated conducting pipes. Updated comparisons between the current limits derived from this model and experimental data from PPM focusing klystrons are presented. An electrostatic Green’s function is formulated for azimuthally symmetric slowwave structures. Analytical and numerical results are present...

In the present research, a unified formulation for free vibration analysis of the bidirectional functionally graded conical and cylindrical shells and annular plates on elastic foundations is developed. To cover more individual cases and optimally tailored material properties, the material properties are assumed to vary in both the meridian/radial and transverse directions. The shell/plate is a...

This work is about designing Pobot V2, a robot capable to climb poles with a cylindrical or conical shape. It is original because of its rolling self-locking concept: rolling allows continuous ascension whereas self-locking guarantees a null energy consumption while staying still on the pole. The robot is also capable to avoid tangential obstacles, to cross small collars and to regulate passive...

Slow-wave instability in a rectangularly corrugated cylindrical waveguide is analyzed. Fields inside corrugation is expressed by a sum of space harmonics satisfying the boundary conditions at the corrugation wall. The corrugation fields are matched to periodic fields outside the corrugation at the boundary of the two regions. Infinitesimally thin annular electron beam is considered including th...

Helically corrugated waveguides have recently been studied for use in various applications such as interaction regions in gyrotron traveling-wave tubes and gyrotron backward-wave oscillators and as a dispersive medium for passive microwave pulse compression. The paper presents a summary of various methods that can be used for analysis of the wave dispersion of such waveguides. The results obtai...

The progressive reduction of velocitygradient to keep the flocculation rate as high as possible without breakage of flocsis called 'tapered flocculation'. In the present work, an attempt has been made to compare the performance of continuous tapered flocculationin conicaland cylindricaltanks. The efficiencyof conical flocculator was found to be higher than that of cylindrical flocculator, espec...
