A robust design optimization of a mixed-flow compressor impeller
Çevik, Mert; Uzol, Oğuz; Yavrucuk, İlkay (null; 2009-06-08)
This paper presents the results of a design and optimization study for the impeller of a small mixed-flow compressor. The objective of the optimization is to obtain an impeller geometry that could minimize a cost function based on the specific thrust and the thrust specific fuel consumption (TSFC) of a small jet engine. The design methodology is based on generating a configurational database for various compressor geometries using ID design codes and a commercial turbomachinery design/analysis software, app...

Design and implementation of low leakage MEMS microvalves
Yıldırım, Ender; Külah, Haluk; Arıkan, Mehmet Ali Sahir; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
This thesis presents analysis, design, implementation, and testing of electrostatically actuated MEMS microvalves. The microvalves are specifically designed for lab-on-a-chip applications to achieve leakage ratios below 0.1 at pressure levels in the order of 101 kPa. For this purpose, two different microvalves are presented in the study. In the proposed designs, electrostatic actuation scheme is utilized to operate the microvalves in normally open and normally closed modes. Characterization of normally open...
Design of a Novel THz Sensor for Structural Health Monitoring Applications
Pavia, J. P.; Ribeiro, M. A.; Sarikaya, C. K.; Akbar, D.; Altan, Hakan; Souto, N. (2019-01-01)
In this paper, we propose a study on the characterization, design and simulation of a THz sensor for applications in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). The proposed sensor is assembled using two frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) based on metamaterial wire resonators. We present a theoretical model to describe its electromagnetics which is used not only to understand the physical principles underlying the functioning of the sensor but also to determine a set of optimized parameters for its operation in th...
Design optimization of rocket nozzles in chemically reacting flows
Yumusak, M.; Eyi, Sinan (2012-07-30)
The objective of this study is to develop a reliable and efficient design tool that can be used in chemically reacting flows. The flow analysis is based on the axisymmetric Euler and the finite rate chemical reaction equations. The finite rate chemistry model includes eight species and eleven reaction equations. These coupled equations are solved by using Newton's method. Both the numerical and the analytical methods are used to calculate the Jacobian matrices. Sensitivities are evaluated by using the adjoi...
