Characteristics of Oscillating Buoyant Plumes.

March 13, 1996
Author(s)
B M. Cetegen, K D. Kasper
An experimental study of round buoyant turbulent plumes is described, emphasizing conditions where the flow has lost source momentum and other source distrubances, and has become self preserving. Plume conditions were simulated using dense gas sources in a

Computations of Enhanced Soot Production in Flickering Diffusion Flames.

March 13, 1996
Author(s)
K C. Smyth, C R. Shaddix, C R. Kaplan
Recent experimental measurements of soot volume fraction in a flickering CH4/air diffusion flame show that for conditions in which the tip of the flame is clipped, soot production is ~5 times greater than that measured for a steady flame burning with the

Enhancement of R123 Pool Boiling by the Addition of N-Hexane (NISTIR 5780)

March 1, 1996
Author(s)
Mark A. Kedzierski
This paper presents the heat transfer data used to file international patent WO 94/18282. The data consisted of pool boiling performance of a GEWA-TTM surface for three fluids: (1) pure R123, (2) R123/n-hexane (99/1), and (3) R123/n-hexane (98/2). The heat

Multizone Modeling of Three Residential Indoor Air Quality Control Options

March 1, 1996
Author(s)
Steven J. Emmerich, Andrew K. Persily
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) performed a preliminary study of the use of central forced-air heating and cooling system modifications to control indoor air quality (IAQ) in residential buildings. The objective of this effort was

Test Optics Error Removal

March 1, 1996
Author(s)
Christopher J. Evans, R Kestner
Wave-front or surface errors may be divided into rotationally symmetric and nonrotationally symmetric terms. It is shown that if either the test part or the reference surface in an interferometric test is rotated to N equally spaced positions about the
