  • Kennedy, A. J. (College of Aeronautics, 1959-11)
    The state of fundamental knowledge on the subject of graphite and the graphitisation process is reviewed. The principle methods of manufacture may be considered to include (1) conventional graphitisation of a coke ...
  • Boshier, G. C. (College of Aeronautics, 1967)
    An investigation has been made into the sequential control of a grinding machine using electro—pneumatic, ball valve and wall attachment switching elements. Each system has been tested on a grinding cycle simulator ...
  • Hillier, M. J. (College of Aeronautics, 1962-09)
    This report presents a review and extension of current grinding theory. Grinding operations are classified on the basis of (a) the cutting action of the grit, (b) the geometry of wheel and work, (c) the type of chip ...
  • Kusmarwanto, I. (Cranfield University, 1985-03)
    The effect of the ground on a rotor wake in forward flight has been investigated experimentally in the working section of an 8ft x Oft straight-through wind tunnel. A three bladed fully articulated rotor with a solidity ...
  • Lilley, G. M.; Spillman, J. J. (College of Aeronautics, 1960-05)
    The Whitham-Walkden theory for the estimation of the strength of shock waves at ground level from aircraft flying at supersonic speeds is applied to the case of a typical projected supersonic civil transport aeroplane. If ...
  • Thornber, Ben; Drikakis, Dimitris; Youngs, D. L.; Williams, R. J. R. (2011-09-30)
    This paper presents a numerical study of a reshocked turbulent mixing layer using high-order accurate Implicit Large-Eddy-Simulations (ILES). Existing theoretical approaches are discussed, and the theory of Youngs (detailed ...
  • Kember, Paul (Cranfield Institute of Technology, 1981-12)

  • Ellis, J. R. (College of Aeronautics, 1963-09)
    Handling track requirements When the handling qualities of a vehicle are to be assessed, it is desirable that the test procedure enables the effects of the main vehicle parameters to be determined separately. The tests ...
  • Boston, Nathalie (Cranfield University, 2010)
    Hazards on accident sites are such that investigators must balance personal safety against the risks involved in collecting evidence intended to prevent future loss of life. Better knowledge of hazards and their mitigation ...
  • Kist, R. A. (1993)
    The local velocities induced in the wake of a helicopter can be a serious hazard to light aircraft operating nearby. A theoretical model is developed which makes it possible to estimate the rolling moment induced on a light ...
  • Parra Saldivar, Maria Luisa (Cranfield University, 2005-03)
    Heat storage as a means to respond to the requirements for improved energy efficiency motivated this study. The objective was to evaluate the impact of thermal energy storage systems in dwellings under Mexican climatic ...
  • Hirayama, Y. (Cranfield University, 1998-02)
    The application of room radiators for the purposes of cooling and dehumidification in buildings for hot and humid climates is investigated. The radiator is purposely brought below the dew point temperature of the room ...
  • Clarke, J. F. (College of Aeronautics, 1960-05)
    The rate of energy transfer between parallel flat plates is evaluated when the (stagnant) gas between them is polyatomic with one inert internal mode. Deviations of the thermal conductivity from the complete equilibriu ...
  • Mote, R. T. (Cranfield University, 1991-09)
    The behaviour of natural convective buoyancy-driven flows within a hot-water store due to the forced passage of colder water through the heat-exchanger's pipe are reviewed in the light of recent advances in experiment ...
  • Alhajeri, Hamad (Cranfield University, 2016)
    The demand for high power in aircraft gas turbine engines as well as industrial gas turbine prime mover promotes increasing the turbine entry temperature, the mass flow rate and the overall pressure ratio. High turbine ...
  • Smith, A. G. (College of Aeronautics, 1962-04)
    Heat transfer in the converging section of the nozzle of a simulated solid propellant rocket with a star-shaped conduit has been investigated in the following way: (a) Area-average heat transfer has been measured on a ...
  • Kang, Heeyoon (1997-07)
    Heat pipe heat exchangers (HPHEs) offer many advantages over other types of heat exchangers for the recovery of heat from industrial gaseous waste streams in the low and medium temperature ranges. Heat pipes employed in ...
  • Mahmood, M. (Cranfield University, 1980-04)
    This thesis is concerned with the determination of the local and average mass/heat transfer--from swirling jets impinging orthogonally onto flat surfaces. ApplicatioCn> of swirl alters the flow field of the' jet ...
  • Ekundayo, C. O. (Cranfield University, 1994-12)
    The use of natural convection to effect heat transfers in enclosures is limited principally because of its low heat transfer coefficients. This study aimed to establish a better understanding of the heat transfers occurring ...
  • Batty, William J. (Cranfield University, 1984-03)
    Buildings are complex thermally-dynamic structures serving aesthetic as well as, utilitarian functions. It is essential that careful planning is undertaken if buildings are to be energy efficient and cheap to run ...
