Influence of Airfoil Trailing-edge Angle and Trailing-edge Thickness Variation on the Effectiveness of a Plain Flap at High Subsonic Mach Numbers


Book Description

The effects of variation of trailing-edge angle and trailing-edge thickness on the lift characteristics of a 10-percent-chord thick symmetrical NACA airfoil section with a 25-percent-chord plain flap are appraised from wind-tunnel tests at Mach numbers from 0.3 to 0.9 and Reynolds numbers varying correspondingly from 1 to 2 million. The airfoil trailing-edge angle was varied from approximately 18 to 6 degrees, and the trailing-edge thickness from zero to the thickness at the flap hinge line.







Numerical Simulation of Power Plants and Firing Systems


Book Description

The book comprises the fundamentals of the numerical simulation of fluid flows as well as the modelling of a power plant and plant components. The fundamental equations for heat and mass transfer will be prepared for the application in the numerical simulation. Selected numerical methods will be discussed in detail. The book will deal with the gas as well as with the water/steam flow. Regulation and controller, simplified models and hybrid models as well as the validation of measurement data are also included in the book.

Boiling Heat Transfer And Two-Phase Flow


Book Description

Completely updated, this graduate text describes the current state of boiling heat transfer and two-phase flow, in terms through which students can attain a consistent understanding. Prediction of real or potential boiling heat transfer behaviour, both in steady and transient states, is covered to aid engineering design of reliable and effective systems.
