Estimation of Pressure Fluctuation Coefficient in Stilling Basins Using Computational Intelligent Models
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Shamsai, Abolfazl (Supervisor)
Abstract
Hydraulic jump is a significant hydraulic phenomenon that occurs in stilling basins and causes energy dissipation of water flow. Due to the severe pressure fluctuations, cavitation, and fatigue damage to concrete materials, hydraulic jump can cause damage to the stilling basin and its related components. Therefore, studying pressure fluctuations is one of the essential topics in the safe design and operation of stilling basins. Due to the nonlinear relationship between the effective variables in the pressure fluctuation phenomenon, the use of computational intelligent models that can extract the relationship between the effective variables is necessary. In this study, laboratory data...
Optimizing the Efficiency of Thermal to Electrical Power Conversion in Static Heat Converter for Radioisotope Heat Sources
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Vosoughi, Naser (Supervisor)
Abstract
Nowadays, due to various advances in the space industry, nuclear generators are widely used to provide the electrical power needed by satellites, spacecrafts and other instruments used in space; So that there is practically no other way than the nuclear industry to produce the required power in some missions; Therefore, it is vital to design nuclear mechanism-based electric power generators. Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (RTG) is one of the best and most widely used of these generators. These generators consist of 3 main components: heat source, thermoelectric converter and body. The source of thermal power used is General-purpose heat source (GPHS), which produces thermal power at...
