Abstract:
This paper describes an inverse design method for calculating the shape of meridional plane of centrifugal impeller. This design method permits the shroud and hub contours to be indirectly calculated by medial axis contour and constraint equations. The design process is computationally inexpensive and can conveniently modify the shroud and hub shapes as the design’s demand. Based on this design method, new constraint equations are used for a new shape design of meridional plane that lead to a uniform velocity distribution in the inlet of impeller. Numerical simulations are employed to investig

Abstract We present idealized simulations to explore how the shape of eastern and western continental boundaries along the Atlantic Ocean influences the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). We use a state-of-the art ocean–sea ice model (MOM6 and SIS2) with idealized, zonally symmetric surface forcing and a range of idealized continental configurations with a large, Pacific-like basin and a small, Atlantic-like basin. We perform simulations with five coastline geometries along the Atlantic-like basin that range from coastlines that are straight to coastlines that are shaped like

Even though the existence of meridional currents in stars has been known for quite a long time (Eddington 1925, Vogt 1925), its exact structure as well as its influence on stellar evolution is still unclear.

The meridional flow channel design of a pump impeller affects its performance. However, since so many design parameters exist, a new design method is proposed in which a meridional and blade-to-blade flow channel is designed by the parallel use of the circulation distribution provided by the designer. Thus, an optimization method was used to design an axis-symmetrical meridional flow channel from the circulation distribution. In addition, the inverse design method proposed by Zangeneh et al.

We compare the variability of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) as simulated by the coupled climate models of the RAPID project, which cover a wide range of resolution and complexity, and observed by the RAPID/MOCHA array at about 26° N. We analyse variability on a range of timescales, from five-daily to interannual. In models of all resolutions there is substantial variability on timescales of a few days; in most AOGCMs the amplitude of the variability is of somewhat larger magnitude than that observed by the RAPID array, while the time-mean is within about 10 %

Abstract:
Toroidal shell structures have been proposed for components of inflatable telescopes and space structures, etc. over the years. Thus, distributed control of toroidal shells becomes a critical issue in precision maneuver, operation, and reliability. The converse effect of piezoelectric materials has made it one of the best candidates for distributed actuators. The resultant control forces and micro-control actions induced by the distributed actuators depend on applied voltages, geometrical (e.g., spatial segmentation and shape) and material (i.e., various actuator materials) properties of the a

Abstract:
In this work we reported the structural features and mechanism of the formation of the Simskaya low of the Uralian foreland basin, besides the Karatau-Suleyman block as a whole. This block has the shape of a wedge, so with a general latitudinal compression, it experienced lateral extrusion to the north along the conjugated shear zones. This factor determined the local situation of meridional compression and latitudinal tension. In the central part of the block, the latitudinal stretching was compensated for by gradual deflection, which led to the formation of the Simskaya low.

We present the impact of meridional circulation and shear turbulence on the evolution of the lithium abundance at the surface of evolved stars originating from the hot side of the Li Dip. We show that our fully consistent treatment of the same hydrodynamical processes which can account for C and N anomalies in B type stars (Talon et al. 1997) and for the shape of the hot side of the Li dip in open clusters (Talon & Charbonnel 1998) also explains Li observations in stars with Teff higher than 7000K on the main sequence as well as in their evolved counterparts (see also Charbonnel & Talo

A design process for cryogenic expanders that supplies 0.5 TPD of liquefied hydrogen in hydrogen liquefaction plants is introduced. To improve the efficiency of the expander, the optimum design was conducted by adjusting two rotor shape parameters. The designed expander for hydrogen liquefaction has a target rotation speed of 75,000 rpm, and helium is applied as the working fluid. Since the operating temperature of the expander is as low as 49 K, a design that reflects the real gas properties must be considered.

In this study we investigated whether earlier coarctectomy provides better preservation of left ventricular function. Experimental studies on the myocardial response to pressure overload show that neonates and young infants develop a functionally advantageous combination of myocytic hyperplasia (together with mild hypertrophy) and increased angiogenesis.

The aim of the research. To analyze the stress state of structures of ribbed-ring domes of different heights during overhang erection. The domes have spherical metal frames and a support contour of the same diameter. Due to different heights, the steepness of the geometric shape of the domes changes. The study is devoted to establishing the relationship between the stress state of the frame and the steepness of the dome when mounted. It was investigated how the height of the ribbed-ring dome affects the stress state of its frame during overhang mounting process. Methods. Computer models of des

A calculation method for the meridional profile of axisymmetric bridges between two spheres of different size is introduced in this manuscript. From geometrical data of the capillary bridge, such as the neck radius and boundary conditions (filling and contact angle), the shape of the capillary bridge is calculated analytically as a solution of the Young–Laplace equation. Its free surfaces, of constant mean curvature, may be classified into portions of nodoid, unduloid, and other limit cases. Moreover, other properties of the liquid bridge can be computed analytically, such as the associated ca

Centrifugal compressor performance is affected by many parameters, optimization of which can lead to superior designs. Recognizing the most important parameters affecting performance helps to reduce the optimization process cost. Of the compressor components, the impeller plays the most important role in compressor performance, hence the design parameters affecting this component were considered. A turbocharger centrifugal compressor with vaneless diffuser was studied and the parameters investigated included meridional geometry, rotor blade angle distribution and start location of the main bla

Abstract. While chemistry-climate models are able to reproduce many characteristics of the global total column ozone field and its long-term evolution, they have fared less well in simulating the commonly used diagnostic of the area of the Antarctic ozone hole i.e. the area within the 220 Dobson Unit (DU) contour. Two possible reasons for this are: (1) the underlying Global Climate Model (GCM) does not correctly simulate the size of the polar vortex, and (2) the stratospheric chemistry scheme incorporated into the GCM, and/or the model dynamics, results in systematic biases in the total column

Abstract:
We consider the two-phase flow of a suspension in a rotating cylinder with inclined endplates for which inertial and viscous effects are small. It is shown that, when the Coriolis force is dominant, flow in the core is essentially unaffected by geometry. If a fluid particle can make a complete circuit about the rotation axis, the sedimentation velocity cannot be augmented by geometrical effects as it can in gravitational settling. However, with the insertion of a complete meridional barrier to block movement around the centre, separation becomes more sensitive to the shape of the container wal
