Head loss in symmetrical bifurcationsAhmed, Sirajuddin January 1965 (has links)
Five symmetrical wye branches of conventional and spherical types were tested for hydraulic losses under symmetrical and unsymmetrical flow conditions. Results are presented graphically. A wide variation in loss factor was observed depending on the type of wye and on flow condition. For a given wye the minimum wye loss coefficient does not necessarily occur under conditions of symmetrical flow. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Civil Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Steps as hydraulic roughness elements in segmentally lined tunnelsBester, J. W. January 2002 (has links)
Thesis (MEng)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Segmentally lined tunnels are increasingly being built to transfer water from one water
scheme to another. The segments that line such tunnels are often in the form of pre-cast
concrete sections, which are placed around the perimeter of the tunnel.
As these tunnels are very expensive to construct, it is imperative that their hydraulic
capacities can be calculated accurately. Even a slight variation in the design diameter has a
significant effect on the cost of the tunnel.
Due to the construction method involved, alternative segments are not always properly
aligned. This creates roughness elements in the tunnel commonly known as steps. These
steps occur randomly and vary in size. Since the steps lead to increased roughness and thus
decrease the hydraulic capacity of the tunnel, it is essential that this effect be allowed for in
the design of the tunnel.
A hydraulic model was used to determine the contribution of steps to the hydraulic
roughness, according to step size and frequency of steps. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Tonnels word al hoe meer gebou om water tussen waterskemas te vervoer. Die voering
van sulke tunnels word dikwels saamgestel uit voorafvervaardigde beton panele wat
geplaas word om 'n huls langs die omtrek van die tonnel te vorm.
Aangesien hierdie tonnels geweldig duur is om te bou, is dit uiters noodsaaklik dat die
hidrouliese kapasiteit van 'n tonnel akkuraat bereken kan word. 'n Klein variasie in die
diameter van die tonnel het 'n betekenisvolle effek op die koste daarvan.
Die konstruksiemetode van sulke tonnels veroorsaak dat opeenvolgende panele nie altyd
presies oplyn nie. Sulke afwykings in die belyning van die tonnelpanele veroorsaak klein
trappies, wat bydra tot die ruheid in die tonne I en sodoende die kapasiteit daarvan laat
afneem. Die afwykings varieer in grootte en kom in geen spesifieke patroon voor nie.
'n Modelstudie is uitgevoer om die bydrae wat die afwykings in the belyning van die
opeenvolgende ringe tot die hidrouliese weerstand maak, te bepaal.

Velocity Field Measurements in the Near Wake of a Parachute CanopyDesabrais, Kenneth J. 26 April 2002 (has links)
The velocity field in the wake of a small scale flexible parachute canopy was measured using two-dimensional particle image velocimetry. The experiments were performed in a water tunnel with the Reynolds number ranging from 3.0-6.0 x 104. Both a fully inflated canopy and the inflation phase were investigated in a constant freestream (i.e. an infinite mass condition). The fully inflated canopy experienced a cyclic“breathing" which corresponded to the shedding of a vortex ring from the canopy. The normalized breathing frequency had a value of 0.56 +/- 0.03. The investigation of the canopy inflation showed that during the early stages of the inflation, the boundary layer on the canopy surface remains attached to the canopy while the canopy diameter increases substantially. The boundary layer begins to separate near the apex region when the diameter is ~68% of the fully inflated diameter. The separation point then progresses upstream from the canopy apex region toward the canopy skirt. During this time period, the force rapidly increases to its maximum value while the separation point of the boundary layer moves upstream towards the skirt. The force then declines rapidly and the separated boundary layer rolls-up into a large vortex ring near the canopy skirt. At the same time, the canopy is drawn into an over-expanded state after which the cyclic breathing initiates. The unsteady potential force was estimated from the rate of change of the canopy volume. It contributed no more than 10% of the peak opening force and was only significant during the early stages of inflation. The majority of the opening force was the result of the time rate of change of the fluid impulse. It accounts for approximately 60% of the peak opening force. This result shows that the formation of the viscous wake is the primary factor in the peak drag force of the canopy.
