Free Convective Heat Transfer is a thorough survey of various kinds of free-convective flows and heat transfer. Reference data are accompanied by a large number of photographs originating from different optical visualization methods illustrating the different types of flow. The formulas derived from numerical and analytical investigations are valuable tools for engineering calculations. They are written in their most compact and general form in order to allow for an extensive range of different variants of boundary and initial conditions, which, in turn, leads to a wide applicability to different flow types. Some specific engineering problems are solved in the book as exemplary applications of these formulas.
Some sixty years after the experimental flights of the North American X-15 hypersonic rocket-powered aircraft, sustained hypervelocity travel is still the next frontier in high-speed transportation. Today, there is much excitement and interest regarding hypersonic vehicles. In fact, many aerospace agencies, large industries, and several start-ups are involved in design activities and experimental campaigns both in wind tunnels and in-flight with full-scale experimental flying test beds and prototypes to make hypersonic travel almost as easy and convenient as airliner travel. Achieving this goal will radically revolutionize the future of civil transportation. This book contains valuable contributions that focus on various design issues related to hypersonic aircraft.
This book provides a compilation of important optical techniques applied to experiments in heat and mass transfer, multiphase flow and combustion. The emphasis of this book is on the application of these techniques to various engineering problems. The contributions are aiming to provide practicing engineers, both in industry and research, with the recent state of science in the application of advanced optical measurements. The book is written by selected specialists representing leading experts in this field who present new information for the possibilities of these techniques and give stimulation of new ideas for their application.
Bu kitap, İTÜ Lisansüstü Eğitim Enstitüsü Makina Mühendisliği programında uzun yıllar verdiğim “Isı Taşınımı” dersinin notlarından oluşmuştur. Özellikle yabancı dilde yazılmış kitaplardan farklı olarak bu kitap yeni konular içermektedir. Kitap en temel kuramlardan başlayıp son bölümlerde bu kuramları kullanarak ısı taşınımı problemlerini çözmeye yönelik tasarlanmıştır. Isı taşınımı problemlerinin çözüme kavuşturulması kısmen ağır matematik gerektirdiği için kitabın bir bütünlük teşkil etmesi bakımından bazı matematik konuları özet hâlinde bir bölümde verilmiştir. Kitabın okunmasının ön şartı; matematik, termod...
Обобщены и систематизированы исследования авторов, посвященные разработке и практическому использованию в практике новых методов визуализации течений, основанных на применении спекл-технологий. В книге изложены теоретические и экспериментальные основы таких методов диагностики, как спекл-технологии. Развита дифракционная теория спекл-фотографии, спекл-интерферометрии, мет...
More than 50 years after the Mariner 4 flyby on 15 July 1965, Mars still represents the next frontier of space explorations. Of particular focus nowadays is crewed missions to the red planet. Over three sections, this book explores missions to Mars, in situ operations, and human-rated missions. Chapters address elements of design and possible psychological effects related to human-rated missions. The information contained herein will allow for the development of safe and efficient exploration missions to Mars.
In the aviation field there is great interest in high-speed vehicle design. Hypersonic vehicles represent the next frontier of passenger transportation to and from space. However, several design issues must be addressed, including vehicle aerodynamics and aerothermodynamics, aeroshape design optimization, aerodynamic heating, boundary layer transition, and so on. This book contains valuable contributions focusing on hypervelocity aircraft design. Topics covered include hypersonic aircraft aerodynamic and aerothermodynamic design, especially aeroshape design optimization, computational fluid dynamics, and scramjet propulsion. The book also discusses high-speed flow issues and the challenges to achieving the dream of affordable hypersonic travel. It is hoped that the information contained herein will allow for the development of safe and efficient hypersonic vehicles.
