The Dynamics of a Small-scale Oceanic Front under the Action of Wind.
(1981-01-01)An unsteady model of the dynamics of a small-scale front in a two-layer stratified viscous fluid is proposed. An equation describing the evolution of a frontal surface is derived. An analogy is noted between the motion ... -
DYNAMICS OF A SLOWLY MOVING FRONT IN A SHALLOW WATER BODY.
(1983-01-01)The movement of fronts occurring upon interaction of water masses differing in density is examined. Some examples are the propagation of light fresh water over the surface of heavier salt water in coastal regions of seas, ... -
Spreading of a Viscous Fluid Over a Horizontal Surface.
(1983-01-01)The three-dimensional spreading of a thin viscous fluid layer over a horizontal surface is examined allowing for the gravitational force and surface tension. Using an asymptotic expansion based on two small parameters ... -
Further Developments in the Taylor 'V' Type VAWT Concept.
(Pergamon PressMontreal, Canada, 1985-06)This paper describes the development of the Taylor 'V' Type Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (V-VAWT) which was first described at the 1983 ISES Solar Energy Congress in Perth, Australia. The aerodynamic performance prediction ... -
The Aerodynamic Control of the 'V' Type Vertical Axis Wind Turbine by Blade Tip Control
(Mechanical Engineering Publications Ltd.London, 1986-08)This paper presents results of wind tunnel tests carried out on a small V-type Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (V-VAWT). This model wind turbine was specifically designed to study the effect of tip area and tip pitch on the ...
