Title: Fluid transients in fluid-structure interaction - 1985; Proceedings of the second symposium, Miami Beach, FL, November 17-22, 1985

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5657027

Topics discussed include the dynamics of liquid sloshing in upright and inverted bladdered tanks, velocity profiles in decelerating turbulent pipe flows, fluid-dynamic aspects of torsional aeroelasticity in steam turbine low-pressure bladings, and the effect of encroachments on structure impact loads during a pool swell transient based on small-scale testing. Consideration is also given to shock wave effects on shut-off-rod guide tubes, the response of an immersed elastic tube bundle to pressure transient, problems encountered in modeling water vapor column separation, and the mechanism of pressure oscillation due to steam condensation in water. Papers are presented on the impact pressure from the sudden arrival of gas/liquid mixtures at a relief valve discharging gas, a multidimensional waterhammer analysis using a node-flow link approach, Poisson's ratio effects on the celerity of a pressure surge in rectangular section pipes and conduits, and analysis and computer simulation for transient flow in a complex system of liquid piping.
