background: red blood cell and other blood products play a crucial role in management of different disease processes, but in spite of implementation of crucial steps to improve the process of request for blood and blood consumption, there is still not enough information available regarding the proper practice in many medical centres. we aimed to evaluate the status of blood product requests and...

In this paper the characteristics of unsteady three-dimensional incompressible flows with heat transfer are obtained along with artificial compressibility of Chorin. At first, compatibility equations and pseudo characteristics for three-dimensional flows are derived from five governing equations (continuity equation, Momentum equations in three directions, and energy equation) and then results ...

We investigate the accuracy of the Godunov scheme applied to the variable cross-section acoustic equations. Contrarily to the constant cross-section case, the accuracy issue of this scheme in the low Mach number regime appears even in the one-dimensional case; on the other hand, we show that it is possible to construct another Godunov type scheme which is accurate in the low Mach number regime.

[1] Regional surface wave observations offer a powerful tool for determining source properties of large earthquakes, especially rupture velocity. Supershear ruptures, being faster than surface wave phase velocities, create far-field surface wave Mach cones along which waves from all sections of the fault arrive simultaneously and, over a sufficiently narrow frequency band, in phase. We present ...

A NOTE ON MY PAPER ON STEADY LAMINAR TWO-DIMENSIONAL JETS IN COMPRESSIBLE VISCOUS GASES FAR BEHIND THE SLIT* Quarterly of Applied Mathematics, 7, 313-323 (1949) By M. Z. KRZYWOBLOCKI (University of Illinois) Determination of the constant of integration for the temperature distribution (p. 317, eq. 25) from the condition that that total flux of enthalpy across jet is alike at all cross-sections ...

A Mach-Zehnder interferometer based on a twin-core fiber was proposed and experimentally demonstrated for gas pressure measurements. The in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer was fabricated by splicing a short section of twin-core fiber between two single mode fibers. A micro-channel was created to form an interferometer arm by use of a femtosecond laser to drill through one core of the twin-core...

An experimental investigation of sonic air, CO2 and Helium transverse jets in Mach 5 cross flow was carried out over a flat plate. The jet to freestream momentum flux ratio, J, was kept the same for all gases. The unsteady flow topology was examined using high speed schlieren visualisation and PIV. Schlieren visualisation provided information regarding oscillating jet shear layer structures and...

A direct approach for determining the asymptotic MHD Mach cone is formulated and solved. An implicit analytical solution enables the calculation of the asymptotic downstream slope of MHD Mach cones at any clock angle for arbitrary Ms , Ma , and θbv . The solution obtained includes all previously known symmetric cases. The elongation and shift of the asymptotic fast mode shock cross-section are ...

High intensity acoustic radiation occurs when turbulence convects past airframe trailing edges. A mathematical model is developed to predict this acoustic radiation. The model is dependent on the local flow and turbulent statistics above the trailing edge of the flight vehicle airframe. These quantities are dependent on the jet and flight vehicle Mach numbers and jet temperature. A term in the ...

A real-time flow visualization system that produces 17 images over a time span of 150 ms is used to visualize the mixing layers of Mach 1.3 (M c50.59) and Mach 2.0 (M c50.87) ideally expanded high Reynolds number axisymmetric jets. These image sequences reveal details about the influence of compressibility on the dynamics of turbulence structures. In general, the behavior observed in axisymmetr...
