Experimental study of horizontal effects of flow on non-erosion absorbers in the presence of cavitation
This article is devoted to one relatively small issue of the dynamics of hydraulic structures, the determination of horizontal hydrodynamic loads on energy absorbers of a high-pressure catchment area in a cavitating flow in the presence of erosion-free absorbers.In connection with the intensive construction of high and medium-pressure hydroelectric
Developing the processing stages of carbon fiber composite paper as efficient materials for energy conversion, storage, and conservation
Carbon is a wonder material and has served the mankind since the inception of civilization in a variety of ways.Among its different forms, carbon fibers are especially known for their conductivity and favorable strength to weight ratio.Here the development of PAN based carbon fibers embedded in a matrix material followed by pyrolysis to form a fibr
