Systems to provide distributed flow control actuation to manage the behavior of a global flow field, are provided. An example of a system can include an aerodynamic structure having an outer surface, and an array of a plurality of nano-scale effectors connected to the outer surface of the aerodynami ...
Disclosed is an abrasion resistant fibrous nonwoven structure composed of (1) a matrix of meltblown fibers having a first exterior surface, a second exterior surface, and an interior portion; and (2) at least one other fibrous material integrated into the meltblown fiber matrix so that the concentra ...
A distinctive apparatus for forming an absorbent body includes a forming chamber, and a fiber delivering mechanism for providing a flow of fibrous material within the forming chamber. A forming layer, which is located in the forming chamber and is movable therein, receives deposit of the fibrous mat ...
A flow conditioner for use in pipelines to isolate a measuring device from the effects of piping induced disturbances thereby allowing more accurate metering of fluids flowing in pipelines. The device comprises three sections: an anti-swirl device; a settling chamber; and a profile device. The three ...
A method of obtaining a free disperse system in liquid which produces a controlled hydrodynamic cavitation by regulation of constriction ratio, volumetric flow rate, and degree of cavitation parameters. Selection of the parameters with regard to the properties of components of the fluid make it poss ...

A hydraulic unit for wheel slip control, which is located between a master cylinder and wheel brake cylinders. Reflection damping devices are installed in main brake lines located between the hydraulic unit and the master cylinder which damp pressure waves that originate at control valves of the hyd ...
A flow conditioner comprising an apertured circular plate to be placed in a conduit in an orientation substantially perpendicular to the axis of the conduit. The apertures are circular and are arranged in a plurality of radially spaced circular arrays around a central aperture. The center of the cen ...
A cylindrical chamber accommodates an axially movable rod having a helically grooved portion of the periphery, to which a starting flow of liquid is fed via an inlet passage of said cylindrical chamber, outlet passages for discharging separate streams of liquid after splitting of the initial flow to ...
A perforated-plate type straightener adapted to be fitted in a cylindrical pipe across the passage of a fluid flowing through the pipe, comprising a perforated plate having a plurality of round holes which are the same in diameter and so provided that the distances between the adjacent holes are sho ...
