An experimental study on the burning rates of interacting fires in tunnels
SHAFEE, SINA; Yozgatlıgil, Ahmet (2018-03-01)
Multiple fires may occur in close proximity in process industries, power generation and fuel storage facilities and confinement conditions such as tunnels, which can lead to a considerable alteration in fire characteristics and safety design. The topic is of significant importance to the fire safety research because there is little work in the literature that investigates the case of interacting fires, which have a destructive potential. In this work, we study the effects of an adjacent fire source on the b...
An Experimental study on the performance of geotextile tubes in beach nourishment applications
Işık, Emrecan; Baykal, Cüneyt; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
In this study, performance of submerged geotextile tubes as toe protection for the beach nourishment applications was investigated through physical model tests. Crossshore sediment transport volumes and sand protection performances of geotextile tubes were evaluated based on the measured post-storm beach profile changes and recessions or progressions of shoreline. In the experiments, the effects of fill material sediment grain sizes, fill angles, negative freeboards of geotextile tubes, and wave steepnesses...
An experimental study on the CO2-CH4 swap process between gaseous CO2 and CH4 hydrate in porous media
Ors, Oytun; Sınayuç, Çağlar (Elsevier BV, 2014-07-01)
Recently, exhaustion of primary energy sources and increase in the atmospheric CO2 levels have become two major energy challenges of the world; therefore, utilization of alternative energy sources and avoiding the emission of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere are some of the serious problems of this century that should be addressed immediately. Many alternatives are being assessed to solve or at least to cease the negative effects of these issues.
An experimental study on channel type shear connectors
Baran, Eray; Topkaya, Cem (2012-07-01)
This paper describes an experimental study on European channel shear connectors. While shear studs are widely used in steel-concrete composite elements, the channel connectors are also gaining popularity due to their certain advantages. The channel connectors do not require special equipment and standard welding procedures are adequate for attachment purposes. In addition, this type of connector offers higher amounts of shear resistance due to its high contact area with surrounding concrete. Although first ...
An experimental study on off-design performance and noise in small pumps
Şahin, Fatma Ceyhun; Eralp, O. Cahit; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
This thesis study is focused on experimentally investigating pump noise at design and off-design operations and its relations with pressure fluctuations. Small size pumps are placed in a semi-anechoic chamber and operated at various system conditions and various rotational pump speeds. Pump operational data, noise data and time dependent pressure data are recorded. Fast Fourier Transform spectra of noise and pressure data are compared. Coherence spectrum between sound pressure level and hydraulic pressures ...
