TL;DR: In this article, a fatigue curve based on strain-fatigue data for use in pressure vessel design is presented. But the focus of this paper is not on the design of a pressure vessel, but on how to evaluate the effects of combined mean and alternating stress.
Abstract: Methods are described for constructing a fatigue curve based on strain- fatigue data for use in pressure vessel design. When this curve is used, the same fatigue strengthreduction factor should be used for low-cycle as for highcycle conditions. When evaluating the effects of combined mean and alternating stress, the fatigue strength-reduction factor should be applied to both the mean and the alternating component, but then account must be taken of the reduction in mean stress which can be produced by yielding. The complete fatigue evaluation of a pressure vessel can be a major task for the designer, but it can be omitted, or at least drastically reduced, if certain requirements can be met regarding design details, inspection, and magnitude of transients. Although the emphasis is on pressure vessel design, the same principles could be applied to any structure made of ductile metal and subjected to limited numbers of load cycles.

TL;DR: In this article, the symmetric vortex in a cylindrical cyclone with a flat bottom was studied with the aid of smoke, and was probed for the distribution of the velocity.
Abstract: The symmetric vortex in a cylindrical cyclone with a flat bottom was studied with the aid of smoke, and was probed for the distribution of the velocity. The smoke studies revealed a laminar regime of flow at very low velocities, the normal turbulent regime of operation, and a new periodic regime of flow in which the vortex turned and attached to the cylindrical wall of the cyclone. A curious core region apparently capable of separating tobacco smoke from the air was also found. The velocity distribution measured in the vortex showed how the flow pattern is strongly influenced by the inlet area of the cyclone.

TL;DR: In this article, a free-streamline flow through a cascade of semi-infinite flat plates is taken as a simplified model of the cavitation process in a helical inducer pump.
Abstract: A free-streamline flow through a cascade of semi-infinite flat plates is taken as a simplified model of the cavitation process in a helical inducer pump. The length and thickness of the resulting cavity is determined as a function of blade geometry and cavitation parameter. Loss coefficients resulting from the cavitation are estimated and representative cavity shapes are calculated to aid in designing the leading edge shape of the blades.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the theory of rotating fluids is applied to the flow in the cyclone and the effects of radial instabilities in the boundary layers on the walls are discussed, and the dynamics of the central core in the flow are studied in a simple nonviscous model which exhibits wave propagation and weir flow similar to a free surface flow.
Abstract: The theory of rotating fluids is applied to the flow in the cyclone. The effects of radial instabilities in the boundary layers on the walls are discussed. The dynamics of the central core in the flow are studied in a simple nonviscous model which exhibits wave propagation and weir flow similar to a free surface flow. A momentum-integral analysis is used to show the effect of friction and to predict the axial distribution of radial inflow.

TL;DR: In this paper, a venturi contour designed specifically for use at critical flow conditions is described, and a theoretical method is presented for determining the discharge coefficient of this venturi.
Abstract: Abstract : A venturi contour designed specifically for use at critical flow conditions is described, and a theoretical method is presented for determining the discharge coefficient of this venturi. An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the discharge coefficient of such a venturi, and the results are compared with the theoretical values. This investigation covered a range of Reynolds number from 0.4 x 10 to the 6th power to 5.4 x 10 to the 6th power based on venturi throat diameter. The venturi used had a throat diameter of 5.6436 in. and an airflow capacity of 8.6 lb/sec at an inlet total pressure of one atmosphere and an inlet total temperature of 519 R. The values of discharge coefficient ranged from 0.992 to 0.994, and the theoretically and experimentally determined coefficients agreed within + or - 0.06% over the range of conditions investigated.
