.... Editor: Bart van Esch. 13 02 2012 07 10 2012 Characteristics of a reversible-pump turbine have been measured with five different leading edge profiles in turbine mode. These profiles varied the inlet blade angle and the radius of curvature. Further geometry parameters have been...

... representation of the vehicle geometry and the aim of predicting the fluctuating exterior noise sources. To the author’s knowledge no studies have been conducted in which both these source terms are evaluated quantitatively against measurements. The current paper investigates the degree to which the amplitude...

... tunnel. The width of the truck geometry is 10 in., and the height and length of the trailer are 1.392 and 3.4 times the width, respectively. The computational model of the wind tunnel is validated by comparing the numerical results with the data from the empty wind tunnel experiments. The comparisons...

.... Numerical investigation indicates that the mean flow is dependent on the configuration of guide vanes and the effect of runner blades reaches to the far upstream. The importance of properly taking account of the effect of blade geometry and the influence of interrelated hydraulic components is demonstrated...

...Shuhong Liu; Michihiro Nishi; Kouichi Yoshida The objective of the present study is to investigate the suitable impeller geometry for a mini turbo-pump, which is defined as the size having impeller diameter between around 5 mm and 50 mm. This is treated because those pumps having the above size...
