... enclosure entailed with a tapered converging nozzle. Previous studies demonstrated that liquid projectiles could be utilized as forming, microforming, welding, and boring tools. It is expected that other applications, such as detonation free explosive neutralization or emission-free coal combustion...

... providing the shape-changing authority to attain a range of surface profiles without additional joints or seals. As a demonstration of the morphing concept in a supersonic environment, this paper describes the construction and testing of a morphing nozzle for a supersonic wind tunnel, which has been...

...Hojin Ahn Rapid granular flow through an orifice (nozzle-shaped flow restrictor) located at the bottom of a vertical tube has been studied using three-dimensional direct computer simulation with the purpose of investigating (1) characteristics of rapid granular flows through the flow restrictor, (2...

...Rossella Rotondi Mixture formation and combustion in a gasoline direct injection (GDI) engine were studied. A swirl-type nozzle, with an inwardly opening pintle, was used to inject the fuel directly in a four stroke, four cylinder, four valves per cylinder engine. The atomization of the hollow cone...

...Jun Ishimoto, Associate Professor, The fundamental characteristics of the two-dimensional cavitating MHD flow of an electrically conducting magnetic fluid in a vertical converging-diverging nozzle under a strong nonuniform magnetic field are numerically predicted to realize the further development...

... is paid to the presence of a nozzle on the system. It is found that the nozzle expansion ratio can have an important influence on attitude motion, the higher this ratio the better behaved the system. Contributed by the Applied Mechanics Division of THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS...

...Y. B. Chang, Mem. ASME; P. M. Moretti, Mem. ASME Air-flotation ovens are widely used for noncontact support and drying of coated paper and plastic films (generically called webs). The main components in typical air-flotation ovens are air bars which have slot nozzles or holes through which hot air...
