A novel method of cooling rolls in hot rolling is proposed. This uses a combination solid jet nozzles and specially shaped deflecting vanes. The vanes transform the incoming cylindrical water into flat fan. Thereby, coolant can be directed hardly accessible locations whilst maintaining optimal angle impingement. allow for effectively roll surface near gap, which otherwise not possible with clas...

the hydrodynamic behavior of approaching flow and the amount of sediment entry into right-angled lateral intakes in diversion dams were investigated using a laboratory channel by experimental measurement and observation. the velocity field upstream of the intake in the main channel and before it at the sluice gate was measured at different elevations of flow at different discharge rates of the ...

BACKGROUND Gaps of sufficient cross-sectional dimensions within linear radiofrequency (RF) lesions may allow conduction through the lesion. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of different gap geometries on conduction through discontinuous RF lesions. METHODS AND RESULTS Radiofrequency lesions were created in isolated, perfused rabbit right ventricular (RV) free wall preparat...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The first objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of fluorescence spectroscopy for diagnosing pre-cancers in stratified squamous epithelial tissues in vivo using two different probe geometries with (1) overlapping versus (2) non-overlapping illumination and collection areas on the tissue surface. Probe (1) and probe (2) are preferentially sensitive to t...

In axial compressors, the unsteady flow caused by interaction between dynamic and static cascades will make moving vanes subject to periodic forces increase risk of high-cycle fatigue fractures. this study, an “S”-type bowed guide vane was designed a 1.5-stage compressor model established. For five with different bending coefficients, numerical simulation carried out under design conditions nea...

Abstract In this article, a numerical investigation of the effect miniaturized five-hole probe downstream transonic low-pressure turbine vane row is presented. First, calibration was performed in uniform flow conditions, as case for any traditional calibration, wide range Mach number, yaw angle, and pitch angle conditions. The on general field throughout segments then evaluated by performing co...
