PLASMA FOCUS DEVICE STUDY. (2005)
Rugge, H. F., Maxwell, D. E., Zwick, S. A.
A program to determine the X-ray and neutron yields from a plasma focus device as a function of capacitor bank energy was carried out. The capacitor bank energy was varied from 20 kJ to 90 kJ, and...
THE GROWTH OF VAPOR BUBBLES IN SUPER-HEATED LIQUIDS (2005)
The growth of a vapor bubble in a superheated liquid is controlled by the inertia of the liquid, the surface tension, and the vapor pressure. As the bubble grows, evaporation takes place at the...
THE GROWTH AND COLLAPSE OF VAPOR BUBBLES (2001)
A theory is developed which describes the behavior of a vapor bubble in a liquid. Its physical basis is the assumption that the heat transfer effects which accompany the evaporation occurring at the...
A Non-Steady Heat Diffusion Problem with Spherical Symmetry, (1998)
A solution in successive approximations is presented for the heat diffusion across a spherical boundary with radial motion. The approximation procedure converges rapidly provided the temperature...
Demetriades,S. T., Argyropoulos,G. S., Maxwell,C. D., Zwick,S. A.
The report describes a realistic analytical method of modeling the time-dependent behavior of MHD generators and accelerators. This method can give accurate quantitative prediction of the performance...
Growth of vapor bubbles in a rapidly heated liquid (1960)
The earlier theory of the growth of vapor bubbles in superheated liquids is extended to the situation in which the rate of temperature rise of the liquid is large. Numerical solutions are presented...
The Growth of Vapor Bubbles in Superheated Liquids (1954)
The growth of a vapor bubble in a superheated liquid is controlled by three factors: the inertia of the liquid, the surface tension, and the vapor pressure. As the bubble grows, evaporation takes...
A Nonsteady Heat Diffusion Problem with Spherical Symmetry (1952)
A solution in successive approximations is presented for the heat diffusion across a spherical boundary with radial motion. The approximation procedure converges rapidly provided the temperature...
