Energy dissipation by triangular screens
Bozkuş, Zafer; Ger, Ahmet Metin (null; 2006-10-13)
The main drive for the present study is to investigate experimentally the energy dissipation through triangular screens. Recent experimental studies have shown that screens placed in vertical and inclined configurations below small hydraulic structures may dissipate more energy than a hydraulic jump formed in conventional stilling basins. In the present study a series of laboratory experiments were performed in order to determine the effect of triangular screens on the energy dissipation. The location of th...
Energy harvesting from piezoelectric stacks via impacting beam
Özpak, Yiğit; Çalışkan, Mehmet; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014)
Piezoelectric materials can be used for energy harvesting from ambient vibration due to their high power density and ease of application. Two basic methods, namely, tuning the natural frequency to the operational frequency and increasing the operation bandwidth of the harvester are commonly employed to maximize the energy harvested from piezoelectric materials. Majority of the studies performed in recent years focus mostly on tuning the natural frequency of the harvester. However, small deviations in operat...

Energy Dissipation Through Screens
Bozkuş, Zafer; Ger, Ahmet Metin; Özeren, Yavuz (null; 2004-07-01)
Screens may be utilized efficiently for dissipating energy of water. In this study, water flowing beneath a gate is used to simulate the flow downstream of a hydraulic structure and screens are used as an alternative tool for energy dissipation. Investigations are done conducting a series of experiments. The porosity, thickness, and the location of the screens are the major parameters together with the Froude number of the upstream flow. The experiments covered a range of Froude numbers between 5 and 18, po...
