A Model of Mass and Heat Transfer for Disc Temperature Prediction in Open Compressor Cavities

Accurate prediction of heat transfer in compressor cavities is crucial to the design of efficient and reliable aircraft engines. The heat transfer affects the thermal expansion of the compressor rotor and, in turn, the tip...

Non-invasive technical investigation of english portrait miniatures attributed to Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver
This study presents the results of the technical investigation carried out on several English portrait miniatures painted in the 16th and 17th century by Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver, two of the most famous limners...

Evidence for a lineage of virulent bacteriophages that target Campylobacter.
BACKGROUND: Our understanding of the dynamics of genome stability versus gene flux within bacteriophage lineages is limited. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in the use of bacteriophages as 'therapeutic' agents; a...
Mass and Heat Exchange in Rotating Compressor Cavities With Variable Cob Separation
Next generation aeroengines will operate at ever-increasing pressure ratios with smaller cores, where the control of blade-tip clearances across the flight cycle is an emerging design challenge. Such clearances are affected by...
Structural development and testing of a prototype house using timber and straw bales
One approach to reducing embodied carbon dioxide of buildings is the increased use of plant-based construction materials such as prefabricated straw bale panels. This paper presents findings from the development and structural...
Geopolymer stabilisation of unfired earth masonry units
D Maskell, A Heath, P J Walker
Mar 01, 2014
Contemporary domestic structures typically use masonry units that are approximately 100mm thick. There is interest in using commercial methods of manufacture to produce earthen bricks that have a similar form factor to...

Inorganic Stabilisation Methods for Extruded Earth Masonry Units
D Maskell, A Heath, P J Walker
Nov 30, 2014
Addressing the challenges of embodied environmental impact of materials has led to growing interest in the use of earth as a construction material and the use of commercial methods of extruding bricks has potential to overcome...

A review of moisture buffering capacity
It is important to control indoor humidity level in buildings as it influences occupant’s health and comfort. Hygroscopic building materials present great potential to passively regulate air humidity due to their ability to...

Comparing the environmental impact of stabilisers for unfired earth construction
D Maskell, A Heath, P J Walker
Mar 01, 2014
Buildings account for approximately one third of the total worldwide energy emissions, of which approximately a quarter can be attributed to the embodied energy of the building. Current UK legislation for low-energy homes is...
