The irrotational waves and the convergence of Levi-Civita's series

Summary The paper shows that the existence of irrotational surface waves established by an investigation of Levi-Civita may be extended till the breaking, but that it is valid when is 0,84 p 1 (and when p₁=np with n whole number). No solution is known till to day when is p<0,84 (and when is 1,00<p₁<<1,68).

Sommario La nota estende la dimostrazione dell'esistenza di onde superficiali irrotazionali, data dal Levi Civita per una ampiezza finita ma sufficientemente piccola dimostrando l'esistenza di queste onde fino al frangimento. Tanto questa dimostrazione che quella originaria di Levi Civita sono valide finchè sia 0,84 p 1 (e quando sia p₁=np con n intero). Nessuna soluzione è nota fino ad oggi quando sia p<0,84 (e quando sia 1 p₁ 1,68).

     

Whose Thoughts Are They, Anyway? Dimensionally Exploding Bion's “Double-Headed Arrow” into Coadapting, Transitional Space

The physics and biology that found psychoanalysis account for discontinuous experience only in the presence of nonmeasurable, metaphysical operators; these include the ego and its subsystems as well as biological experience inherited through Lamarckian principles. Complex, self-organizing systems, however, can link biology to experience without metaphysics. They can also account for psychoanalytically relevant behaviors without appealing to stable internal representations. These behaviors include what W. R. Bion called transformation in O and its corollary, the appearance of the selected fact. By dimensionally exploding the double-headed arrow that he used to link the states Ps and D in his model for thinking (Ps D), we can generate a space that is, at once, psychoanalytically imaginal and dynamically coadapting. Isomorphic to D. W. Winnicott's transitional space, it is self-organizing. It is describable according to dynamics formulated by W J. Freeman, S. Kauffman and C. Langton and it can generate instantaneous conscious contents by way of a selective process analogous to spatio-temporal binding. As a whole, this model supports a clinical stance advanced by D. W. Winnicott as play, within transitional space.     

Interpolation formulas for maxwell viscosity of certain metals as a function of shear-strain intensity and temperature

The purpose of this study is the construction of interpolation formulas for the dependence of Maxwell viscosity, a quantity which is the reciprocal of shear-strain relaxation time , on shear-strain intensity and temperature for several metals: iron, aluminum, copper, and lead. This function was interpolated in various temperature and deformation velocity ranges in accordance with available experimental data for iron (0 10⁷ sec^–1, 200 ° T 1500 °); aluminum (0 10⁷ sec^–1, 300 ° T 900 °); copper (0 10⁵ sec^–1, 300 ° T 1300 °); lead (0 10⁶ sec^–1, 90 ° T 400 °); temperatures in °K.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 4, pp. 114–118, July–August, 1974.     

Analysis of slip and temperature jump coefficients in a binary gas mixture

The possibility of simplifying the formulas obtained by the Maxwell-Loyalka method for the velocity _u, temperature _T and diffusion _d slip coefficients and the temperature jump coefficient in a binary gas mixture with frozen internal degrees of freedom of the molecules is considered. Special attention is paid to gases not having sharply different physicochemical properties. The formulas are written in a form convenient for use without linearization in the thermal diffusion coefficient. They are systematically analyzed for mixtures of inert gases, N₂, O₂, CO₂, and H₂ at temperatures extending from room temperature to 2500°K. It is shown that for the molecular weight ratios m^* = m₂/m₁ considered the expressions for _u and can be radically simplified. With an error acceptable for practical purposes (up to 10%) it is possible to employ expressions of the same structural form as for a single-component gas: for _u if 1 m^* 6, and for if 1 m^* 3. When 1 m^* 2 the expression for _T can be simplified with a maximum error of 5%. Within the limits of accuracy of the method the expression for _t can be linearized in the thermal diffusion coefficient. An approximate expression convenient for practical calculations is proposed for _d Finally, the , _u, and _T for a single-component polyatomic gas with easy excitation of the internal degrees of freedom of the molecules are similarly analyzed; it is shown that these expressions can be considerably simplified.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 6, pp. 152–159, November–December, 1990.     

Heat transfer process in turbulent flows

A system of differential equations is proposed to describe turbulent flows of incompressible fluid boundary layer type with constant thermophysical characteristics A turbulent temperature conductivity is introduced which is expressed in terms of the energy and scale of turbulence, the dimensionless gradients of the mean velocity and turbulence energy, and the dimensionless distance, to the surface being streamlined. This system is integrated on an electronc computer by the mesh method for the flow in a flat-plate boundary layer with different Prandtl numbers (0.2P100) For air (P=0.71) the system is integrated for nonzero values of the transverse mean velocity component on the streamlined surface (0v_W/U0.0045).Moscow.

Results are presented of a study of the gasdynamic parameters and the geometric characteristics of the mixing zone of axisymmetric jets of gases of differing density (Freon-12, air, and helium) propagating in a parallel air stream, within the limits of the initial segment (0x/R3–30).

Asymptotic Nusselt numbers for Newtonian flow through a parallel-plate channel with recycle

General expressions for evaluating the asymptotic Nusselt number for a Newtonian flow through a parallel-plate channel with recycle at the ends have been derived. Numerical results with the ratio of thicknesses as a parameter for various recycle ratios are obtained. A regression analysis shows that the results can be expressed by log Nur^0.83=0.3589 (log)² -0.2925 (log) + 0.3348 forR 3, 0.1 0.9; logNu=0.5982(log)² +0.3755 × 10^–2 (log) +0.8342 forR 10^–2, 0.1 0.9.

Distinctive Features of the Flow past a Flight Vehicle Integrated with an Air-Breathing Engine at High Supersonic Velocities

The aerodynamic characteristics and distinctive features of the flow past hypersonic integral-layout flight vehicles with air-breathing engines intended for cruising atmospheric flight are experimentally investigated. The experiments were conducted on a simplified model designed with regard for the general principles of integration for vehicles of the class considered. The tests were run in a high-speed supersonic wind tunnel over the Mach and Reynolds number ranges 4 M 9 and 10⁵ Re₀ 10⁶.Balance testing was conducted, the pressure distributions over the vehicle surface were measured, the flowfield parameters were determined using a moving total-pressure tube, and flow shadowgraphs were obtained. The measured data are compared with the results of the calculations for three-dimensional inviscid flows. The effects of mounting a nacelle and contouring the internal duct are considered. The effect of the corrections on the duct flow in the absence of jet modeling is estimated.     

Calculation of intense blowing on a blunt body and an airfoil

Various aspects of the problem of intense blowing through the surface of bodies have, been theoretically studied by a number of authors, within the framework of inviscid flow theory. A detailed bibliography on this topic is given, e.g., in [1, 2]. The well-known approaches to solution of this problem have a limited area of application. For example, asymptotic methods can be used for hypersonic flow regimes only at relatively low levels of the blown gas momentum ( = ² = _ov_o ²/ V ² 1). The same limitation applies to the numerical method of straight lines [2]. The forward Eulerian calculation schemes [3, 4] smear the contact discontinuity severely, and cannot handle the case where the blown gas and the gas in the incident flow have different thermodynamic properties (_o ). This paper presents results of a numerical investigation of supersonic flow over two-dimensional and axisymmetric bodies with intense blowing on the forward surface, performed using a time-dependent finite-difference method [5] with an explicit definition of the contact interface between the two cases. The calculations encompass a family of elliptic cylinders with semiaxis ratio 0.5 4, a flat-face cylinder, and a flat plate with rounding near the midsection, with variations in the blowing law, the incident flow Mach number M (3 M 10), the adiabatic indices, and the blowing parameter 0 0.5.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 1, pp. 117–124, January–February, 1977.In conclusion, the authors thank T.

Messung und Berechnung des örtlichen und mittleren Stoffübergangs an stumpf angeströmten Kreisscheiben bei unterschiedlicher Turbulenz

Zusammenfassung In einer vergleichenden Literaturübersicht zu Umströmung, Druck- bzw. Geschwindigkeitsverteilung sowie Wärme- und Stoffübergang werden bislang vorliegende Angaben zu stumpf angeströmten Kreisscheiben und -Zylindern zusammengefaßt. Wenige und zudem divergierende Ergebnisse zum Wärme- und Stoffübergang machen grundlegende experimentelle und theoretische Untersuchungen notwendig, wie sie in [l, 2] für die Eichung von Stoffübergangsmeßmethoden benötigt werden.Unter Einbeziehung des quer angeströmten Kreiszylinders wird gezeigt, daß genaue Angaben zum Wärme- und Stoffübergang bei zwei- wie dreidimensionalen Staupunktströmungen bislang nur über die Messung möglich sind. Über gemessene Geschwindigkeitsverteilungen berechnete Stoffübergangskoeffizienten werden von der Messung nicht bestätigt. Sie liegen gegenüber dem Experiment zu niedrig.Die Messungen wurden bei Turbulenzintensiten 0,8%Tu6%, Reynolds-Zahlen 2·10³5 und Scheibendurchmessern 9,3mmd73,7mm durchgeführt. Der Einfluß der Turbulenz auf den Stoffübergang im Staupunkt von Kreisscheiben kann nur näherungsweise über den Smith-Kuethe-Parameter Tu · Re/100 erfaßt werden. Differenzen zwischen Theorie nach Smith und Kuethe für Tu· Re<5 und Messung lassen sich über die Stabilitätstheorie erklären. Für eine genauere Erfassung des Stoffübergangs muß den unterschiedlichen Transportvorgängen über Turbulenzballen oder Längswirbeln sowie der Struktur der Turbulenz Rechnung getragen werden.

Measuring and computation of local and average mass transfer to disks in cross flow at different turbulence intensities

The results of different publications concerning the flow, pressure and velocity distributions as well as the heat and mass transfer of disks and cylinders in cross flow are compared by a literature review. A few diverging results for heat and mass transfer require new experimental and theoretical approaches. The calibration of recently developed techniques for the determination of mass transfer rates as published in [1, 2] make these investigations expecially necessary. Including the cylinder in cross flow the authors show, that up to now exact data of heat and mass transfer for two- or three-dimensional flow at a forward stagnation region can be obtained by direct measuring only.Mass transfer coefficients computed from measured velocity distributions are not confirmed by the experimental results. Compared to the experimental data they are too low. The measurements were accomplished for turbulence intensities 0.8%Tu6%, Reynolds-numbers 2· 10³5 and disk diameters 9.3 mm d 73.7 mm.The influence of the turbulence on the stagnation point mass transfer of disks can be obtained only approximately by the Smith-Kuethe-parameter Tu·Re/100. Differences between theoretical results of Smith and Kuethe and experimental ones for Tu·Re/100<5 may be explained by the stability theory. For a more accurate determination of the mass transfer the different transport mechanisms of the scale of turbulence or the tree-dimensional flow pattern like Taylor-Görtler-vortices as well as the structure of the turbulence itself have to be regarded.

Experimental investigation of the resistance to the flow of a conducting fluid in flat insulated ducts in the presence of a transverse magnetic field with allowance for fringe effects and wall roughness

The distribution of pressure, velocity, and electrical potential has been investigated for a mercury flow in insulated rectangular ducts with a large side ratio (Hartmann-type flow). The ranges of variation of the Reynolds, Hartmann, and Stewart numbers were 7·10²R5·10⁵, 0H490, and 0N24, respectively. Special attention is given to the sections of the channel where the flow enters and leaves the magnetic field. In these zones the pressure is sharply nonuniform and the velocity profiles in a plane perpendicular to the field acquire an M shape. A relation is established between the length of the entrance section, where the flow is three-dimensional, and the MHD similarity criteria. It is shown that ducts which are hydraulically smooth in the absence of a magnetic field become increasingly rough as the field grows stronger. Data are obtained on the resistance coefficient for a stabilized flow measured in a magnetic field and on the dependence of the critical Reynolds number on the Hartmann number.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 4, pp. 10–21, July–August, 1971.     

Effect of a longitudinal magnetic field on the characteristics of a stabilized channel arc

The results of calculations of the temperature profiles and volt-ampere characteristics of a long cylindrical argon arc in a longitudinal uniform magnetic field are presented. The calculation was made for the following parameters: pressure p =0.1–10.0 atm; temperatures T = 1000-20,000°K; magnetic field induction B =0-10 T; diameter of cylindrical channel d = 1.0 cm. It is shown that for strongly radiating arcs (p1.0 atm) the temperature profiles become more inflated with an increase in the magnetic field, while for weakly radiating arcs (p 0.1 atm) the appearance of loops in the volt-ampere characteristics is typical for certain conditions (14,000T20,000°K, B1.0 T), indicating the impossibility of arcing under these conditions.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 2, pp. 147–153, March–April, 1975.     

The onset of Taylor-like vortices in the flow induced by an impulsively started rotating cylinder

The onset of instability in the flow by an impulsively started rotating cylinder is analyzed under linear theory. It is well-known that at the critical Taylor number T_c=1695 the secondary flow in form of Taylor vortices sets in under the narrow-gap approximation. Here the dimensionless critical time _c to mark the onset of instability for TT_c is presented as a function of the Taylor number T. Available experimental data of water indicate that deviation of the velocity profiles from the primary flow occurs starting from a certain time 4_c. It seems evident that during _c4_c the secondary flow is very weak and the primary state of time-dependent annular Couette flow is maintained.     

Approximate relationships for the determination of the pressure on the surface of a sphere or cylinder with an arbitrary mach number in the free stream

Numerical calculations have been made [1–4] of the pressure distribution over the surface of a sphere or cylinder during transverse flow in the range 0 /2, where is the angle reckoned from the stagnation point along the meridional plane, and on the basis of these results simple analytical equations have been proposed in order to determine the pressure for arbitrary Mach numbers M in the free stream. The gas is assumed to be ideal and perfect.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, pp. 185–188, March–April, 1985.

Numerical Investigation of the Natural Convection of Water in the Neighborhood of the Density Inversion Point For Grashof Numbers up to 106

The natural convection of fresh water in a square cell is considered at a temperature close to the density inversion temperature for Grashof numbers 2.9 · 10⁴ Gr 10⁶. As a result of the numerical investigation, one steady-state and three self-oscillating regimes are found in addition to the three steady-state flows previously detected earlier and described for low Grashof numbers ( 0 Gr 2 · 10⁵). The basic characteristics of the unsteady flows are analyzed by means of the Fourier method, the fundamental oscillation frequencies are found, and the flow evolution and the variation of the oscillation characteristics with increase in the Gr number are considered.

Internal waves generated by the turbulent wake of a sphere

Internal waves generated by the turbulent wake of a sphere travelling horizontally through a linearly stratified fluid were studied using shadowgraph and particle-streak photography. The Reynolds and internal Froude number ranges considered were 2,000 Re 12,900 and 2.0 Fi 28.0, respectively. Two quite distinct flow regimes based on the structure of the turbulent wake were identified. In one, the wake is characterized by large-scale coherent structures. In the other, the wake, as viewed on a side-view shadowgraph, grows in a roughly symmetric fashion to a maximum height and then collapses slowly; such flows are termed the smallscale structures regime.Wave lengths and maximum wave heights of the internal waves were measured as functions of Nt and Fi, where N is the Brunt-Väisälä frequency and t the time. It was found that the wave lengths scale well with the streamwise dimension of the spiralling coherent structures. The maximum amplitude of the internal waves were found to scale with the vertical dimension of the turbulent wake, upon varying the internal Froude number.
