  2. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    [4] [5] [6] A generalized model of the flow distribution in channel networks of planar fuel cells. [6] Similar to Ohm's law, the pressure drop is assumed to be proportional to the flow rates. The relationship of pressure drop, flow rate and flow resistance is described as Q 2 = ∆P/R. f = 64/Re for laminar flow where Re is the Reynolds number.

  3. Orr–Sommerfeld equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orr–Sommerfeld_equation

    The Orr–Sommerfeld equation, in fluid dynamics, is an eigenvalue equation describing the linear two-dimensional modes of disturbance to a viscous parallel flow. The solution to the Navier–Stokes equations for a parallel, laminar flow can become unstable if certain conditions on the flow are satisfied, and the Orr–Sommerfeld equation determines precisely what the conditions for ...

  4. Parallel transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_transport

    In differential geometry, parallel transport (or parallel translation [a]) is a way of transporting geometrical data along smooth curves in a manifold. If the manifold is equipped with an affine connection (a covariant derivative or connection on the tangent bundle ), then this connection allows one to transport vectors of the manifold along ...

  5. Volume of fluid method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_of_fluid_method

    The term “Volume of Fluid method” and it acronym “VOF” method were coined in the 1980 Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory report, “SOLA-VOF: A Solution Algorithm for Transient Fluid Flow with Multiple Free Boundaries,” by Nichols, Hirt and Hotchkiss [6] and in the journal publication “Volume of Fluid (VOF) Method for the Dynamics of ...

  6. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

    An axial fan is a type of fan that causes gas to flow through it in an axial direction, parallel to the shaft about which the blades rotate. The flow is axial at entry and exit. The fan is designed to produce a pressure difference, and hence force, to cause a flow through the fan. Factors which determine the performance of the fan include the ...

  7. Parallel coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_coordinates

    Inselberg (Inselberg 1997) made a full review of how to visually read out parallel coordinates relational patterns. [10] When most lines between two parallel axes are somewhat parallel to each other, it suggests a positive relationship between these two dimensions. When lines cross in a kind of superposition of X-shapes, it's a negative ...

  8. Axial piston pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_piston_pump

    Cutaway side-view diagram of an axial piston pump 3-D rendering of an axial piston pump with the parts labeled Animation of an axial piston pump in operation. An axial piston pump has a number of pistons (usually an odd number) arranged in a circular array within a housing which is commonly referred to as a cylinder block, rotor or barrel.

  9. Circuit topology (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_topology_(electrical)

    Circuit diagram of a ladder network low-pass filter: a two-element-kind network. Comprehensive cataloguing of network graphs as they apply to electrical circuits began with Percy MacMahon in 1891 (with an engineer-friendly article in The Electrician in 1892) who limited his survey to series and parallel combinations. MacMahon called these ...
