Two factors in the perforation are taken into account, i.e. the attack angle relative to the direction of incoming flow and diameter of holes. The effect of such perforation on the drag, lift and vortex-shedding frequency is mainly investigated. Results have shown that variation of the attack angle has a little effect, especially on the drag and vortex-shedding frequency, except in certain cases due to the varied vortex-shedding patterns in the near wake. The increasing hole diameter still exhibits a little effect on the drag and frequency of vortex shedding, but really reduces the lift, in particular at larger wavelength, such as the lift reduction reaching almost 66% 68% after introducing the perforation.展开更多

By using thisprogram, the aerodynamic force is calculated and the sails are designed for an aircraftwith rectangular wing of 8.6 aspect ratio. The calculation results show that thosewing-tip sails, whose total area is 3. 1 percent of the aircraft’s basic wing area, will haveremarkable effect on reducing induced drag, and the lift-dependent drag factor can bereduced by about 18.5 to 21 .5 percent. Wind tunnel tests are conducted in NH-2 windtunnel of Nanjing Aeronautical and Astronautical University, and the results demon-strate the correctness of the above calculation results.

The effects of the drag velocity and rotational speed of the sphere on the drag force are examined for the particle Reynolds number from 50 to 300 and for the dimensionless rotational angular speed of 0≤Ω≤1.0. The influence of dimensionless roughness height Z0 of the wall is also evaluated for z0 ≤ 10. The results show that the drag forces on a sphere both in a logarithmic flow and in a uniform unsheared flow increase with the increase of the drag velocity. For 50≤Rep≤300, -↑CD increases with decreased roughness height z0. The time-averaged drag coefficient is also significantly affected by rotational speed of the sphere and roughness height zo. The lift coefficient -↑CL increases with increased rotational speed and decreases with increased roughness height.展开更多

However, the influence and mechanism of various parameters on the air-lift performance are not quite clear, especially the influence of flow pattern on lifting efficiency. Focusing on the problems mentioned above, the key part of the air-lift (namely, the air injector) was proposed aimed to reduce friction loss in the inner pipe according to improving flow field performance, thus increase the lifting efficiency. The study of relative factors of the performance of an air-lift is performed and the river sand is used as simulation of underground ore bed. The total lifting height of the experimental system is 3 m, the water flux, mass flow of solid particles, concentration of particles and lifting efficiency are measured under the same submergence ratios by changing the air injector, which is divided into nine specifications of air injection in this research. The experimental results indicate that the optimal air flow rate corresponding to excellent performance of the air-lift can be obtained in the range of 35-40 m3/h. The air injection method has a great effect on the performance of the air-lift, the air injector with three nozzles is better than that in the case of one or two nozzles. Further more, the air injection angle and arrangement of air injection pipes also have great effect on the performance of an air-lift. The proposed research results have guiding significance for engineering application.展开更多

In the Eulerian two-phase model, gas and liquid phase are considered to be two different continuous fluids interacting with each other through the finite inter-phase areas. The exchange between the phases is represented by source terms in conversation equations. Turbulence is assumed to be a property of the liquid phase, k - ε model is used to describe the behavior of the liquid phase. The dispersion of phases due to turbulence is represented by introducing a diffusion term in mass consecrvation equation. The contribution of bubble movement to the turbulent energy and its dissipation rate is taken into accounted by adding extra volumetric source terms to the equations of turbulent enemy and its dissipation rate. The comparison between the mathematical simulation and experiment data indicates that the interphase lift force has a big effect on the flow behavior, and considering both drug force and lift force as interphase forces is important to accurately simulate the gas-water two-phase fluid flow in air-stirred systems. The interphase lift force makes bubbles move away from the centerline, the gas concentration is decreased near the centerline, and increased near the wall. The lift force is smaller than drug force at the same place, especially far away from the centerline.展开更多

This paper uses numerical simulations to study the effects of different factors on the aerodynamic drag of a train running at subsonic speed in an evacuated tube. Firstly, we present the assumption of a steady state, two dimensional, incompressible viscous flow with lubricity wall conditions. Subsequently, based on the Navier-Stokes equation and the k-c turbulent models, we calculate the aerodynamic drag imposed on the column train with a 3-meter diameter running under different pressure and blockage ratio conditions in an evacuated tube transporta- tion (ETT) system. The simulation is performed with FLUENT 6.3 software package. An analyses of the simulation re- sults suggest that the blockage ratio for ETT should be in the range of 0.25-0.7, and the tube internal diameter in the range of 2-4 m, with the feasible vacuum pressure in the range of 1-10 000 Pa for the future subsonic ETT trains.展开更多

Surgeon’s sense or tailor tacdundancy to bek is mainly the methods used for designing thigh lift currently. This article is an attempt to find a method/a reference point to define the exact amount of re excised. Introduction: Anthropometry reference measurements can be applied in designing thigh lift surgery. Classically, anthropometry binds the calf circumference with mid-thigh circumference and upper thigh (gluteal) circumference to make postoperative results more harmonious and natural. Method: To find out the anthropometrically referenced ratio of the calf circumference with mid-thigh circumference and upper thigh (gluteal) circumference, anthropometric databases and studies done on females addressing different ages, countries and races with average BMI (body mass index) were reviewed. Chosen studies should include the calf circumference, mid-thigh circumference and/or upper thigh (gluteal) circumference. Anthropometrically referenced upper and mid-thigh circumferences can be calculated preoperatively. Result: 64:92:100 was concluded as a pooled mean ratio out of nine different studies addressing the ratio of the calf circumference:mid-thigh circumference:upper thigh (gluteal) circumference. Conclusion: Postoperative anthropometrically referenced mid and upper thigh circumferences can be calculated by measuring the calf circumference and applying the 64:92:100 ratio. Markings are done intraoperatively using my innovated “Stab-Push-Pinch-Mark” or SPPM technique for drawing a rough surgical design, then tweaked using the anthropometrically referenced 64:92:100 ratio results.展开更多
