Active vibration control method for space truss using piezoelectric actuators and finite elements
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1999-12)
This thesis created an analytical model for active vibration control of the NPS space truss using ANSYS. The NPS space truss is a 3.7-meter long truss that simulates a space-borne appendage with sensitive equipment at its ...
A design and performance analysis for the Hot Primary Heat Exchanger (HPX) using numerical analysis
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1995-06)
The Hot Primary Heat Exchanger (HPX), a key component of the ThermoAcoustic Life Sciences Refrigerator, consists of a tube and fin design. The tubing is bent into a serpentine pattern and overlayed on a screen of ...
Convective heat transfer from a cylinder in a strong acoustic field
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1995-12)
Experimental work was performed to study the convective heat transfer characteristics from a cylinder in a strong zero-mean oscillatory flow represented by an acoustic field. Two different flow regimes are discussed; ...
Recovery factors in zero-mean internal oscillatory flows [electronic resource]
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1995-12)
High speed oscillatory flows, like high speed mean flows, are capable of inducing time-averaged heat transfer effects. This research involves the analytical solution of a model problem of zero-mean internal oscillatory ...
