Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigations on single stage modified Savonius rotor
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of geometrical parameters on the performance of the rotors in terms of coefficient of static torque, coefficient of torque and coefficient of power was investigated in an open jet wind tunnel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study and theoretical analysis of local heat transfer distribution between smooth flat surface and impinging air jet from a circular straight pipe nozzle
Vadiraj Katti,S.V. Prabhu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of jet-to-plate spacing and Reynolds number on the local heat transfer distribution to normally impinging submerged circular air jet on a smooth and flat surface was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance tests on helical Savonius rotors
TL;DR: In this paper, a helical Savonius rotor with a twist of 90° was proposed to decrease the variation in static torque from 0° to 360°, and the performance of the helical rotor with and without shaft was compared in an open jet wind tunnel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the deflector plate on the performance of modified Savonius water turbine
TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal position of the deflector plate upstream to the water flow was investigated to find out the maximum power generated by a Savonius rotor with water as the working medium at a Reynolds number of 1.32 × 10 5.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survey on measurement of tangential momentum accommodation coefficient
Amit Agrawal,S.V. Prabhu +1 more
TL;DR: The tangential momentum accommodation coefficient (TMAC) as discussed by the authors is the boundary condition for flow of gases in the slip and transition flow regimes, and its precise determination is important for several other applications as well.
