    Experimental Study of Spray Pattern of Two Impinging Jets of Non-Newtonian Gel Fluid Containing Aluminum Nanoparticles

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Jafari, Maryam (Author) ; Kebriaee, Azadeh (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In most of the studies conducted on the physics of the outflow from impinging jet injectors, Newtonian fluids have been used for their research and experiments. These studies have investigated the effect of factors such as geometrical parameters of the injector and physical properties of the fluid on different regimes resulting from the impact of the jet stream; Unfortunately, very few studies have been conducted on how to form spray and atomization in gel non-Newtonian fluids containing nanoparticles to investigate the above factors when using impinging jet injectors. Furthermore, although the addition of nanoparticles has advantages for better combustion, there are still problems in...

    Abstract
    With the increase in the average age of the world's population, osteoporosis is a worldwide incidence. This disease, along with natural disasters, are important factors in the occurrence of fractures in various bones of the body. One of the methods for solving this problem and replacing with broken body bones is the use of metal implants with hydroxyapatite-based coatings. One of the common problems with using implants in the body is the infection in the adjacent parts of the implant. To overcome this problem, several studies have been carried out on the use of hydroxyapatite coatings with metal ions or antibacterial oxide compounds. In the present study, the influence of factors such as the... 

    Interferometric Laser Imaging for Droplet Sizing (ILIDS)in Sparse Sprays

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Rezaee, Hassan (Author) ; Kebriaee, Azadeh (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In the present work we first introduced ILIDS and review the theory of interferometry and light scattering from droplets. Bases on ILIDS method, droplets are irradiated by monochrome sheet laser, where the superposition of reflected and first-order refracted beams form a parallel fringe pattern at out of focus plane on the imaging sensor in the forward-scatter region. This pattern can be related to the droplet size by using simple geometrical optics. For the present work, an image processing algorithm is utilized to capture weak and noisy images of droplets to reduce the lost data in the sizing procedure. Since ILIDS method is applied for small and dilute spray, it is suitable for... 

    Experimental Study of Liquid Sheet Breakup in Cross Flow

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Olyaei, Ghader (Author) ; Kebriaee, Azadeh (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Injecting liquid fuel into the cross flow of air provides high penetration of the liquid, rapid mixing with air, and increased efficiency. This method has widespread applications in the propulsion systems of gas turbines, scramjets, turbine blade cooling, and fuel injection for engine afterburners. One of the design strategies for future aircraft engines is to reduce pollutants using fuel spray into the cross flow instead of direct jet fuel injection and using renewable energy sources. The applications of cross flows include injecting fluid through rotating pressure injectors in exhaust flows, injecting fluid through pressure-rotating injectors in radial injectors, and using slinger...

    Implementation of an Optical Imaging Technique for Surface Pressure Visualization in Fluid Flows

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ahmadi, Farhad (Author) ; Kebriaei, Azadeh (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Quantitative measurement of pressure on surfaces in wind tunnels and flight tests is essential to understand the aerodynamic performance of flying vehicles. Pressure data are also essential for validation and verification of computational fluid dynamics codes. One of the relatively new methods of measuring pressure distribution on aerodynamic surfaces is the method of pressure sensitive paint (PSP). The PSP method is an optical technique that can measure the pressure distribution on the surface without using common pressure sensors or transducers, with greater spatial resolution and lower cost. This method has a unique ability for non-contact (non-interfering) measurements. In this method,... 

    Numerical Simulation of Flow Formed by Three Impinging Jets

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Derakhshan, Mona (Author) ; Kebriaee, Azadeh (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    This article provides numerical study of the flow formed by three impinging jets. The liquid film formed by these jets and its first atomization area is investigated. Due to the small time and length scale in liquid film break up phenomena, the study is done by dynamic mesh refinement, which decreases the cost very enormously. The results show that when three jets impinge in low velocities, after the sheet forms, they will merge together and after the merging point a jet will form which at the end breaks up to large drops. This collapse follows the capillary instability. The pattern of the flow is relevant to the Reynolds and Weber number of the flow and for Re numbers higher than 50 the...

    Abstract
    We study the problem of finding a target t from a start point s in street environments with the cooperation of two robots which have a minimal sensing capability; that is, robots do not know any information about the workspace including information on distances, edges, coordinates, angles etc. They just can detect the discontinuities in the visibility region of their location. The robots can detect target point t as soon as it enters their visibility region and have communication peripherals to send messages to each other. Our aim is to minimize the length of the path passed by the robots. We propose an online algorithm for robots such that they move in the workspace and find the target.... 

    Investigation of Flow Formed by two Impinging Jets

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Dolatkhahi, Hamed (Author) ; Kebriaei, Azadeh (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Due to importance of designing geometry and working condition of injector it is necessary that by testing cold flow, we gain better understanding of atomization characteristics and in particular initial atomization close to injector which defines the spray characteristics. Up to today experimental measurements in the high density zone close to injector has been difficult to to optical limitations and also analytical solutions of atomization process is limited due to complexity and highly nonlinear equations. Numerical solutions are also under development and researchers have recently done researches and simulations. In this field the modeling of liquid sheet collapse has challenged numerical...

    Abstract
    We consider the problem of walking a robot in an unknown polygon called “street”, starting from a point (Formula presented.) to reach a target (Formula presented.). The robot is assumed to have minimal sensing capability in a way that cannot infer any geometric properties of the environment, such as its coordinates, angles or distances; but it is equipped with a sensor that can only detect the discontinuities in the depth information (or gaps). Our robot can also locate the target point (Formula presented.) as soon as it enters in robot’s visibility region. In addition, one pebble is assumed to be available to the robot to be used as an identifiable point and to mark any position of the...

    Abstract
    We consider the problem of walking a simple robot in an unknown street. The robot that cannot infer any geometric properties of the street traverses the environment to reach a target t, starting from a point s. The robot has a minimal sensing capability that can only report the discontinuities in the depth information (gaps), and location of the target point once it enters in its visibility region. Also, the robot can only move towards the gaps while moving along straight lines is cheap, but rotation is expensive for the robot. We maintain the location of some gaps in a tree data structure of constant size. The tree is dynamically updated during the movement. Using the data structure, we...

    Abstract
    We consider the problem of walking in an unknown street, starting from a point s, to reach a target t by a robot which has a minimal sensing capability. The goal is to decrease the traversed path as short as possible. The robot cannot infer any geometric properties of the environment such as coordinates, angles or distances. The robot is equipped with a sensor that can only detect the discontinuities in the depth information (gaps) and can locate the target point as soon as it enters in its visibility region. In addition, a pebble as an identifiable point is available to the robot to mark some position of the street. We offer a data structure similar to Gap Navigation Tree to maintain the... 

    CRA based Control of non-minimum phase fractional order systems

    , Article Proceedings of the IEEE International Conference on Control Applications ; 2012 , Pages 855-858 ; 9781467345033 (ISBN) Tabatabaei, M ; Haeri, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    2012
    Abstract
    In this paper the characteristic ratio assignment (CRA) method is employed to control transient response of a class of non-minimum phase fractional order systems. Since fractional order all-pass filter could not be realized, the fractional unstable zeros are converted to integer unstable zeros by multiplying complementary polynomials to numerator and denominator polynomials of system's transfer function. Doing so, the closed loop system would be an integer order all-pass filter multiple an all-pole fractional transfer function determined from CRA method. Computer simulation results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method. m

    Abstract
    This paper focuses on robust performance analysis of a closed loop fractional order system through a sensitivity approach. The characteristic ratio assignment method is selected to attain a desired closed loop transient response. Then, we compute the sensitivity of such a desired transfer function with respect to its characteristic ratio and we explore its specifications. The relation between the coefficient diagram shape and the relative stability of the closed loop system is discussed. Also, the closed loop poles variations due to the changes in the characteristic ratios are investigated. Finally, we study a pseudo second order process to verify the robust performance of the characteristic... 

    CRA based control of fractional order systems subject to control signal constraint

    , Article International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems ; 2011 , Pages 268-272 ; 15987833 (ISSN) ; 9781457708350 (ISBN) Tabatabaei, M ; Haeri, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    An approach is proposed to control transient response of fractional order systems with maximum permissible control signal. This goal is achieved using a newly suggested characteristic ratio assignment method. Based on the proposed method, the generalized time constant τ and the characteristic ratios including their pattern, an adjustable parameter β, and the product of two successive characteristic ratios ρ are determined such that predefined level of overshoot and time specification of closed loop step response are obtained while the control signal is confined to a pre assigned maximum magnitude. The raised issue is solved by defining an optimization problem in which the design parameters...
