The effects of surface instabilities on laminar film condensation
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1965], 1965)Heat transfer rates for laminar film condensation of Freon-1l3 were measured on the underside of horizontal surfaces, inclined surfaces, and vertical surfaces. Several distinct regimes of flow were observed. On the underside ... -
Entrance effects in a developing slug flow
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Division of Industrial Cooperation, [1960], 1960)The kinetics of a Taylor bubble, as it rises behind a series of other bubbles in a gas-liquid slug flow, have been determined. The rise velocity of a bubble is expressed as a function of separation distance from the bubble ... -
An experimental and theoretical study of density wave oscillations in two-phase flow

An experimental and theoretical study of radiative and conductive heat transfer in nongray semitransparent media
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Engineering Projects Laboratory, [1969], 1969)One dimensional temperature profiles and heat fluxes within a slab of molten glass were measured experimentally. The glass slab was contained in a platinum foil lined ceramic tray inside a high temperature furnace. An ... -
Film boiling of saturated liquid flowing upward through a heated tube : high vapor quality range
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1964], 1964)Film boiling of saturated liquid flowing upward through a uniformly heated tube has been studied for the case in which pure saturated liquid enters the tube and nearly saturated vapor is discharged. Since a previous study ... -
Film boiling on the inside of vertical tubes with upward flow of the fluid at low qualities
(Cambridge, Mass. : Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1963], 1963)Flow regimes, local heat transfer coefficients, and temperature distributions along the wall have been studied for film boiling inside a vertical tube with upward flow of a saturated liquid. The area of interest has been ... -
Film condensation of liquid metals -- precision of measurement
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Engineering Projects Laboratory, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1969], 1969)Major differences exist in results published by investigators of film condensation of liquid metal vapors. In particular, the reported dependence of the condensation coefficient on pressure has raised questions about both ... -

Forced-convection condensation inside tubes
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Heat Transfer Laboratory, [1971], 1971)High vapor velocity condensation inside a tube was studied analytically. The von Karman universal velocity distribution was applied to the condensate flow, pressure drops were calculated using the Lockhart- Martinelli ... -
Forced-convection surface-boiling heat transfer and burnout in tubes of small diameters
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1962], 1962)A basic heat-transfer apparatus was designed and constructed for the study of forced-convection boiling in small channels. The various regions of forced-convection surface boiling were studied experimentally and analytically. ... -
Forced-convection, dispersed-flow film boiling
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1969], 1969)This report presents the latest results of an investigation of the characteristics of dispersed flow film boiling. Heat transfer data are presented for vertical upflow of nitrogen in an electrically heated tube, 0.4 in. ... -
Forces on oscillating uniform and tapered cylinders in a crossflow
(Cambridge University Press, 1998)Forces are measured at both ends of rigid cylinders with span 60 cm, performing transverse oscillations within an oncoming stream of water, at Reynolds number Re ~3800. Forced harmonic motions and free vibrations of ... -
Foundations of Infrastructure CPS
(2015-10-07)Infrastructures have been around as long as urban centers, supporting a society’s needs for its planning, operation, and safety. As we move deeper into the 21st century, these infrastructures are becoming smart – they ... -
Frequency Control using Cooperative Demand Response through Accumulated Energy
(2015-10-07)This paper proposes a hierarchical control architecture for engaging demand into providing primary frequency response services. The proposed architecture relies on the use of information about accumulated energy for the ...
