In the context of classic conical shell formulation, nonlinear forced vibration analysis of truncated conical shells and annular plates made of multi-scale epoxy/CNT/fiberglass composites has been presented. The composite material is reinforced by carbon nanotube (CNT) and also fiberglass for which the material properties are defined according to a 3D Mori-Tanaka micromechanical scheme. By utilizing the Jacobi elliptic functions, the frequency-deflection curves of truncated conical shells and annular plates related to their forced vibrations have been derived. The main focus is to study the influences of CNT amount, fiberglass volume, open angle, fiber angle, truncated distance and force magnitude on forced vibrational behaviors of multi-scale truncated conical shells and annular plates.

In the present investigation, by using the two numerical methods, free vibration analysis of laminated annular and annular sector plates have been studied. In order to obtain the main equations two different shell theories such as Love's shell theory and first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) have been used for modeling. After obtaining the fundamental equations in briefly, the methods of harmonic differential quadrature (HDQ) and discrete singular convolution (DSC) are used to solve the equation of motion. Accuracy, convergence and reliability of the present HDQ and DSC methods were tested by comparing the existing results obtained by different methods in the literature. The effects of some geometric and material properties of the plates are investigated via these two methods. The advantages and accuracy of the HDQ and DSC methods have also been examined with different grid numbers and shell theory. Some results for laminated annular plates and laminated circular plates were also been supplied.

Static stability behaviors of annular sandwich plates constructed from two layers of particle-reinforced nanocomposites have been investigated in the present article. The type of nanoscale particles has been considered to be graphene oxide powders (GOPs). The particles are assumed to have uniform and graded dispersions inside the matrix and the material properties have been defined according to Halpin-Tsai micromechanical model. The core layer is assumed to have honeycomb configuration. Annular plate has been formulated according to thin shell assumptions considering geometrical nonlinearities. After solving the governing equations via Galerkin's technique, it is showed that the post-buckling curves of annular sandwich plates rely on the core wall thickness, amount of GOP particles, sector radius, and thickness of layers.

The main objective of this work is to investigate the sloshing behavior in a baffled and unbaffled three dimensional annular-sectored water pool (i.e., tank) which is located at dome region of the primary containment. Initially two case studies were performed for validation. In these case studies, the theoretical and experimental results were compared with numerical results and good agreement was found. After the validation of present numerical procedure, an annular-sectored water pool has been taken for numerical investigation. One sector is taken for analysis from the eight sectored water pool. The free surface is captured by Volume of Fluid (VOF) technique and the fluid portion is solved by finite volume method while the structure portions are solved by finite element approach. Baffled and un-baffled cases were compared to show the reduction in wave height under excitation. The complex mechanical interaction between the fluid and pool wall deformation is simulated using a partitioned strong fluid-structure coupling.

Numerical simulation of steady, non-evaporating hollow-cone sprays interacting with concentric annular air jets is performed using the discrete stochastic particle method in KIVA. The spray characteristics such as SMD, mean droplet velocity, liquid volume flux, air/liquid mass ratio, and droplet number density arc obtained and compared with the measurements involving different air flow rates in large and small annuli. Overall satisfactory agreement is achieved between calculation and experiment except for the deviation in the downstream SMD arising from uncertainty in the size distribution function at injection, and inaccuracy in the averaged spray parameters due to the small volumes of axisymmetric 2-D sector meshes close to the axis.

This paper presents the influence of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) waviness and aspect ratio on the vibrational behavior of functionally graded nanocomposite sandwich annular sector plates resting on two-parameter elastic foundations. The carbon nanotube-reinforced (CNTR) sandwich plate has smooth variation of CNT fraction along the thickness direction. The distributions of CNTs are considered functionally graded (FG) or uniform along the thickness and their mechanical properties are estimated by an extended rule of mixture. In this study, the classical theory concerning the mechanical efficiency of a matrix embedding finite length fibers has been modified by introducing the tube-to-tube random contact, which explicitly accounts for the progressive reduction of the tubes' effective aspect ratio as the filler content increases. Effects of CNT distribution, volume fraction, aspect ratio and waviness, and also effects of Pasternak's elastic foundation coefficients, sandwich plate thickness, face sheets thickness and plate aspect ratio are investigated on the free vibration of the sandwich plates with wavy CNT-reinforced face sheets. The study is carried out based on three-dimensional theory of elasticity and in contrary to two-dimensional theories, such as classical, the first- and the higher-order shear deformation plate theories, this approach does not neglect transverse normal deformations. The sandwich annular sector plate is assumed to be simply supported in the radial edges while any arbitrary boundary conditions are applied to the other two circular edges including simply supported, clamped and free.

Spatially and temporally resolved gas temperature measurements have been made in aeroengine combustor sector rig burning standard kerosene fuel. Temperature PDFs have been obtained from a triple-sector double annular combustor rig running at simulated ground idle conditions, showing features of flow mixing within the burning rig. Mean temperature and temperature PDFs were measured by CARS to investigate flow characteristics of the recirculation zones.

가스터빈 연소기의 화염 특성을 알기 위하여 분할 연소기 시험을 수행하였다. 점화시험은 여러 가지 연소기 유입 공기속도와 공기과잉율에 따라 토치 점화장치를 이용하여 수행되었다. 또한, 연료를 충분히 공급한 상태에서 점화를 수행한 후 점차 연료량을 감소시켜가며 희박연소한계를 측정하였다. 실험결과, 공기과잉율 6에서 안정한 점화를 보였고 이 값은 연소기 공기 유입속도에 따라 점점 증가함을 보였다. 최소 실화한계는 연소기 공기 유입속도 40 m/s 에서 약 4였고, 이 값은 연소기 공기유입속도에 따라 약 10까지 증가함을 보였다. 화염특성 시험결과, 화염안정성은 연소기 유입속도가 커질수록 희박화염소실한계는 넓어짐을 알 수 있었고, 연소기 유입 공기속도가 약 65 m/s 에서 가장 큰 화염소실 한계를 보였다.
