The Rankine body, discovered by Scottish physicist and engineer William Rankine, is a feature of naval architecture involving the flow of liquid around a body/surface.. In fluid mechanics, a fluid flow pattern formed by combining a uniform stream with a source and a sink of equal strengths, with the line joining the source and sink along the stream direction, conforms to the shape of a Rankine ...
Schematic diagram to describe Rankine half body flow. In the field of fluid dynamics, a Rankine half body is a feature of fluid flow discovered by Scottish physicist and engineer William Rankine that is formed when a fluid source is added to a fluid undergoing potential flow. Superposition of uniform flow and source flow yields the Rankine half ...
The Rankine vortex is a simple mathematical model of a vortex in a viscous fluid. It is named after its discoverer, William John Macquorn Rankine . The vortices observed in nature are usually modelled with an irrotational (potential or free) vortex.
A schematic diagram of a shock wave situation with the density , velocity , and temperature indicated for each region.. The Rankine–Hugoniot conditions, also referred to as Rankine–Hugoniot jump conditions or Rankine–Hugoniot relations, describe the relationship between the states on both sides of a shock wave or a combustion wave (deflagration or detonation) in a one-dimensional flow in ...
The case = corresponds to the axisymmetric stagnation point flow, where is a constant. When =, = /, a Burgers vortex is ... The Rankine vortex and Kaufmann ...
Elon Musk looks on, in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, D.C., U.S. - Kevin Lamarque/Reuters
Although the Oval Office was built in 1909, it retained the oval design to mirror those first three rooms in the original White House. (Don’t miss these 12 other mind-blowing White House facts ...
