The effect of wedge-shaped fan flow deflectors on the mean and turbulent flow-fields of dual-stream jets is investigated. Several wedge-shaped deflector concepts were used to create asymmetry in the plume of a dual-stream jet issuing from a scaled down version of the NASA Glenn ‘5BB’ bypass-ratio 8 turbofan nozzle. The deflector configurations comprised internal and external wedges with and wit...

In the normal mode of operation, the TRIUMF cyclotron accelerates H ions to produce 500 MeV proton beams of 160 A with 4 nsec pulses separated by 43 nsec. A proposed experiment ( ! e conversion) requires a 500 MeV beam with 100-200 nsec pulses separated by 1-2 sec with an average intensity of 200 A. Two methods have been investigated to achieve this time structure. Both incorporate a pulsed ele...

We have designed, fabricated and characterized dual-wavelength metasurfaces that function at two assigned terahertz wavelengths with independent phase and amplitude control at each wavelength. Specifically, we have designed a dual-wavelength achromatic metasurface-based deflector deflecting the incident wave to the same direction at two selected wavelengths, which has circumvented the critical ...

In two configurations, a solid-state acousto-optic (AO) deflector or modulator is mounted in a 0.5 m monochromator for background correction with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). A fused silica acousto-optic modulator (AOM) is used in the ultraviolet (UV) spectral region applications while a glass AO deflector (AOD) is used for the visible (VIS) region. The sys...

Flip buckets are terminal spillway elements, generating free jets for energy dissipation. Deflectors are an alternative to flip buckets with constructional ease yet of similar hydraulic features. A first experimental study published at the 33 IAHR Congress, Vancouver, investigated deflectorgenerated jets in terms of their air concentration characteristics. For jet impact onto a movable bed, the...

This paper presents a computational study on the aerodynamic effectiveness of vane-type fan-flow deflectors used for reducing jet noise from a supersonic turbofan exhaust with bypass ratio of 2.7. The numerical code solved the three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations. A series of nozzle configurations using deflector vanes of variable number, airfoil section, azimuthal mounti...

A prism deflector, which is a multifaceted with reflective edges, the most common scanning element that allows fast filling of wide area laser radiation pulses along one coordinate. To carry out movement second coordinate region under study element, for example, flat oscillating mirror, should be used. The overall dimensions elements and unit as whole depend on free parameters are set at system...

As an alternative to ski jumps, deflectors can be implemented on spillways to generate free jets. They guide, up to a certain limit, the jet to an achieved location onto the plunge pool surface, and furthermore enhance the process of jet disintegration. The present research addresses the following aspects, derived from physical model tests: (1) length and shape of the jet black-water core and f...
