Dynamic viscosity of gas mixtures
An oscillating disc viscometer was designed and calibrated for the determination of viscosity of gases and gas mixtures at room temperature and pressure. The viscosity of oxygen, carbon dioxide and air were determined at ... -
Dynamics of gas bubbles in liquids
The study of bubble formation in liquids is of great importance because of its application in the design of many industrial bubble contactors like distillation columns, bubble cap columns, absorption towers, reactors, extraction ... -
Heat transfer from flat plates to an air let
Heat transfer from an electrically heated flat plate to an air jet at different angles of attack was investigated. Brass plates of diameters 1 in., 2 in., 4 in., 5 in., 6 in., and 8 in. were used in the study. The jet ... -
Inverse transition from turbulent to laminar flow in a two-dimensional channel
An experimental investigation on inverse transition from turbulent to laminar flow in a two-dimensional channel was carried out. The experiments were conducted in the inverse transition region at Reynolds numbers of 525, ... -
Studies in the elastic stress analysis of hollow circular cylinders
From the investigations on the analysis of hollow cylinders subjected to axisymmetric boundary conditions reported in the previous five chapters, the following conclusions are summarized: 1) In Chapter 1, an exact solution ... -
Studies in the oxidation of benzene
Oxidation as an important unit process having considerable promise has been highlighted. A new process of phenol manufacture based on the direct oxidation of benzene as opposed to the multi-stage processes (like Scientific ...
