Film thickness measurement with an ultrasonic transducer

A technique for measuring condensate film thickness using an ultrasonic transducer is described. In the experiment, the condensate film thickness with R-113 and FC-72 (a fluorinert compound developed by the 3M Company) condensing on the horizontal lower surface of a rectangular duct was measured at several locations. From the measured values a power law relation between the condensate film thickness and the axial distance from the leading edge of the condensing surface was derived by regression analysis. Assuming a linear temperature profile in the condensate film, local and average heat transfer coefficients were computed from the condensate film thickness. The average heat transfer coefficients were compared with the values obtained by measuring the heat transfer rate to the coolant. The two values were within ±12% of each other. As yet there is no satisfactory analytical model to predict the local heat transfer coefficient even in the annular condensation regime. One of the main difficulties in modeling the condensation is the lack of a suitable model to predict the interfacial shear stress. With the measurement of the film thickness it is possible to determine the interfacial shear stress. It is hoped that the shear stresses so determined will lead to the development of a satisfactory model for interfacial shear stress with condensation.

Singular perturbation analysis of dynamic fields in a thermoelastic solid with a small surface-breaking crack

An asymptotic analysis is presented for a dynamic problem of a semi-infinite isotropic thermoelastic solid with a small surface breaking crack. The exterior surface of the solid is subjected to a series of short thermal pulses. The crack surface is traction free and an ideal thermal contact is assumed across the crack. The stress intensity factor is asymptotically evaluated as a function of the crack depth and time. The effect of a boundary layer associated with the diffusive term is identified. The theoretical model is supplied with numerical simulations.

Determination of in situ parameters of sandy soils for off-road vehicle mobility

This study focuses on the development of a methodology for the determination of some in situ parameters for off-road vehicle mobility on sandy soils. The stress field in the vicinity of and at the interface between a wedge and soil was determined by solving the stress equations using the method of characteristics. The governing equations were solved numerically by using backward finite difference method. The proposed method allows the prediction of any two of the in situ soil parameters δ, φ, and γ (respectively, the interfacial friction angle between the material of a wedge penetrometer and the soil, the internal friction angle, and the unit weight of the soil), given the value of any one of them and the results of penetration tests of two different apex angle wedges. The predictions and the measured values are in agreement.     

Application of the Fourier transform in electronic speckle photography

In speckle photograph technology, to determine the displacement of the points on the surface of the measured body, the conventional method is to put the film which has recorded the speckle patterns before and after displacement into a system of optical Fourier transforms. After filtering on the spectrum plane, the experimentalist can obtain the displacement information from the interference pattern on the image plane. Instead of setting up a complex optical Fourier transform system, we consider the speckle field as a light intensity function of 2 dimensions, which will change with different positioning of the points. After working on the function's discrete Fourier transform (DFT), according to one of the properties of Fourier transformation, the displacement of the measured point is involved in the phase of its spectrum. Having extracted the displacement information from the phase, we obtain the distribution of the displacement field. In this paper, we deduce the expression for the displacement field by using Fourier transformation under conditions of both equal and unequal displacement and show their applications.     

The estimate and measurement of longitudinal wave intensity

Quasi-longitudinal waves are one type of structural waves, which are important at high frequencies. This paper studies the estimate theory and measurement technique of quasi-longitudinal waves, analyzes the bias error due to the effect of bending waves. In a two-dimensional quasi-longitudinal wave field, the intensity vector is the sum of the effective intensity vector and the intensity variation vector. Its axial component is proportional to two imaginary parts of cross spectral densities and in the measurement, it is measured by a pair of two-transducer arrays. In a onedimensional quasi-longitudinal wave field, the intensity variation is zero, the intensity is proportional to only one imaginary part of a cross spectral density and it can be measured using a two-transducer array. If bending and quasi-longitudinal waves coexist and the contribution from bending waves cannot be eliminated or reduced to a certain extent, the measured quasi-longitudinal wave intensity will contain a large error. The results measured on the three-beam structure show that quasi-longitudinal wave intensity can be accurately measured using the intensity technique when bending waves are negligible in comparison with quasi-longitudinal waves.
