The structural channel, C-channel or parallel flange channel (PFC), is a type of (usually structural steel) beam, used primarily in building construction and civil engineering. Its cross section consists of a wide "web", usually but not always oriented vertically, and two "flanges" at the top and bottom of the web, only sticking out on one side ...
C is a roughness coefficient; R is the hydraulic radius (in ft for US customary units, in m for SI units) S is the slope of the energy line (head loss per length of pipe or h f /L) The equation is similar to the Chézy formula but the exponents have been adjusted to better fit data from typical engineering situations.
In fluid dynamics, the entrance length is the distance a flow travels after entering a pipe before the flow becomes fully developed. [1] Entrance length refers to the length of the entry region, the area following the pipe entrance where effects originating from the interior wall of the pipe propagate into the flow as an expanding boundary layer.
Friction loss is a significant engineering concern wherever fluids are made to flow, whether entirely enclosed in a pipe or duct, or with a surface open to the air. Historically, it is a concern in aqueducts of all kinds, throughout human history. It is also relevant to sewer lines. Systematic study traces back to Henry Darcy, an aqueduct engineer.
The Knudsen number is a dimensionless number defined as =, where = mean free path [L 1], = representative physical length scale [L 1].. The representative length scale considered, , may correspond to various physical traits of a system, but most commonly relates to a gap length over which thermal transport or mass transport occurs through a gas phase.
It is the first code with an explicit construction to provably achieve the channel capacity for symmetric binary-input, discrete, memoryless channels (B-DMC) with polynomial dependence on the gap to capacity. [1] Polar codes were developed by Erdal Arikan, a professor of electrical engineering at Bilkent University.
From March 2011 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Mukesh D. Ambani joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a -16.7 percent return on your investment, compared to a 9.2 percent return from the S&P 500.
