Neel, dated 6 June 1997. The dissertation presents computational solutions to flows ranging from incompressible viscous flows to inviscid transonic flows. The viscous flow problems focus on turbulence modeling in the presence of separation; and the inviscid results focus on the development of an unstructured solution algorithm.

This title is part of Virginia Tech’s Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Collection (VT ETD). Aerodynamic Engine/Airframe Integration for High Performance Aircraft and Missiles This is Research and Technology Organization (RTO) AGARD-CP-498, dated September 1992. The objective of the symposium was to review the state-of-the-art in aerodynamic engine/airframe integration techniques and to report on the progress which has been achieved during engineering project work in recent years. Because the treatment of this subject requires an interdisciplinary approach, both experimentalists and theoreticians were invited to contribute to the meeting. Six sessions were organized to cover the essential subdisciplines requiring aerodynamic engine/airframe integration during the concept-assessment and design phases for new aerospace vehicles. For individual titles, see N93-13200 through N93-13231. Bibliographic and abstract details are available in HTML format.

It is aimed at clarifying how certain fluid transport phenomena, including fluid-grain interactions and fluid stirring and mixing, might contribute to the complex architecture observed in well exposed plutons in southern Nevada. Our current work combines theory with scaled laboratory experiments in support of the field mapping and analytical work of Miller's group. Low-viscosity glycerin (red) moving as a gravity flow into less dense high-viscosity silicon fluid (clear); viscous planing of the flow front "traps" a boundary sublayer beneath the glycerin. Magma Emplacement We are currently conducting dynamically scaled laboratory experiments to mimic certain features of emplacement of mafic magma layers into a felsic host. These experiments are part of the thesis work of Heather Bleick.

D. P. Nigam, Shobha Agarwal and V. K. Srivastava Abstract The governing equations for fully developed laminar flow and heat transfer in the thermal entrance region of circular curved tubes are solved numerically for power law fluids. Detailed descriptions of the secondary velocity profiles and temperature profiles as a function of Dean number, Prandtl number and power law index are provided to elucidate the significant role of secondary convection. Results for friction factors, asymptotic Nusselt numbers and Nusselt numbers in the thermal entrance region are computed and compared with the published experimental and theoretical results for Newtonian and power law fluids. Satisfactory agreement is found. For a given Prandtl and Dean number the Nusselt number increases with increases in power law index and the thermal entrance length is found to be shortened for dilatant fluids in comparison with the pseudoplastic fluids.
