Experimental Investigations and Computational Analysis on Subsonic Wind Tunnelijtsrd
This paper disclose the entire approach to design an open circuit subsonic wind tunnel which will be used to consider the wind impact on the airfoil. The current rules and discoveries of the past research works were sought after for plan figuring of different segments of the wind tunnel. Wind speed of 26 m s have been practiced at the test territory. The wind qualities over a symmetrical airfoil are viewed as probably in a low speed wind tunnel. Tests were finished by moving the approach, from 0 to 5 degree. The stream attributes over a symmetrical airfoil are examined tentatively. The pressure distribution on the airfoil area was estimated, lift and drag force were estimated and velocity profiles were acquired.

Numerical analysis for two phase flow distribution headers in heat exchangerseSAT Journals
Abstract A flow header having number of multiple small branch pipes are commonly used in heat exchangers and boilers. In beginning the headers were designed based on the assumption that the fluid distribute equally to all lateral pipes. In practical situation the flow is not uniform and equal in all lateral pipes. Mal distribution of flow in heat exchangers significantly affects their performance. Non-uniform flow distribution from header to the branch pipes in a flow system will lead to 25% decrease in effectiveness of a cross flow heat exchanger. Mal distribution of flow in the header is influenced by the geometric parameters and operating conditions of the header. In this work the flow distribution among the branch pipes of dividing flow header system is analyzed for two phase flow condition. In the two phase flow condition, the effect of change in geometric cross sectional shape of the header (circular, square), inlet flow velocities are varied to find the flow mal distribution through the lateral pipes are investigated with the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics software. Keywords: circular, square headers and Computational Fluid Dynamics software. (CFD)

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. Introduction
A well-designed airport drainage system is a
prime requisite for operational safety and
efficiency as well as pavement durability
Inadequate drainage facilities may result in
costly damage due to flooding
Constitute a source of serious hazards to air
traffic
Erosion of slopes
Saturated and weakened pavement foundations
3. Airport Drainage - Introduction
Airport drainage system is similar to street and
highway drainage design.
Airports are characterized by large areas of
relatively flat gradient.
Airports require prompt removal of surface and
subsurface water.
Hence, they need an integrated drainage
system.
Removal of water should be done from
runways, taxiways, aprons, parking lots etc.
4. Airport drainage
Runoff is removed from airports by means of
surface ditches, inlets and an underground
storm drainage system
Airport drainage can be described into
following sections
1. Estimation of runoff
2. Design of basic system for collection and
disposal of runoff
3. Provision for adequate subsurface drainage
5. 1. Estimation of Runoff
No of formulas and analytical procedures exist
for finding runoff
All methods are not precise and accurate
Of the available methods Rational Method is
widely used one
Co-efficient of runoff, rain fall intensity, duration
and frequency are the factors on which this
method depends on.
6. Only a portion of the rainfall flows as runoff
Some water evaporates
Some intercepted by vegetation
Some infiltrates into ground
Airport drainage channels and structures must be
designed for the precipitation – losses
Losses depends on slope, soil condition,
vegetation and land use.
Some of these factors change with time
Important to assess the effects of planned
development works on the runoff as they may
disturb the existing pattern of runoff.
7. Runoff coefficient indicates the hydrologic
nature of the drainage area
It is defined as the ratio of quantity of runoff to
the total precipitation that falls on the drainage
area
The below table gives the recommended
values of runoff coefficient.
9. Rainfall intensity is the rate at which rain falls,
typically expressed in inches per hour.
Because of the probabilistic nature of weather, it
is discussed in terms of its frequency and
duration
Procedures for the construction of rainfall
intensity–duration curves have been published
by the FAA.
Making use of such charts we can determine
the intensity of a 5 year rainfall of desired
duration
11. To obtain values for short-duration rainfalls, the
following relationships between a
30-min rainfall and 5-, 10-, 15-min amounts
may be used:
Duration (min) Ratio
5 0.37
10 0.57
15 0.72
12. In the previous example we took, the 30 mm rainfall
intensity that is 1.37 inch will be multiplied by the
ratios given to yield the rainfalls of smaller
durations as follows.
0.51 in. in 5 min
0.78 in. in 10 min
0.99 in. in 15 min
After that values will be converted into inches per
hour to get the intensity
Now the above obtained values can be used for
drawing a 5 year storm intensity duration curve.
Similarly for other periods like 2, 10, 20 we can
develop curves.
13.
14. A designer must choose correct curve for the
design
This involves the weighing and judging various
factors related to physical and social damages
that might result from the flood of a given
frequency.
Normally a return period of 5 years is used for
the design of drainage systems at airports
Choosing a higher return period will return a
costly design which is not economical
15. Time of concentration
In the design of airport drainage facilities, a rainfall
duration equal to the time of concentration is
chosen.
It is the time taken by the water droplet from the
remotest area of the catchment to reach the inlet of
drainage.
It consists of 2 components
Time of surface flow or inlet time
Time of flow within the structural drainage system
Inlet time can be obtained using the formula
D = KT2
D – distance in mts
T – inlet time in minutes
16. Following is the formula recommended by FAA for
finding the time T
where
T = surface flow time (min)
C = runoff coefficient
S = slope (%)
D = distance to most remote point (ft)
Or else following figure can be used for finding the
approximate inlet time
17. The time of flow within the structural system
can be determined by dividing the structure
length (in feet) by the velocity of flow (in feet
per minute).
18.
19. The rational method is recommended for the
calculation of runoff from airport surfaces, especially
for drainage areas of less than 200 acres
The method is expressed by the equation
Q = CIA
Q = runoff (cfs)
C = runoff coefficient (typical values are given in Table
12.1)
I = intensity of rainfall (in./hr for estimated time of
concentration)
A = drainage area (acres); area may be determined
from field surveys, topographical maps, or aerial
photographs
20. COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL
OF RUNOFF
The hydraulic design of a system for the
collection and disposal of surface runoff is
discussed in the framework of four subtopics:
Layout of drainage system
Design of underground pipe system
Design of open channels
Design of inlets, manholes, and other
apparatus
21. 1. Layout of Drainage System
A generalized topographical map showing existing
2-ft ground contours should be obtained or
prepared.
All natural and man made objects influencing the
drainage should be represented
Existing water courses, canals, irrigation ditches,
roads etc,
In addition, a more detailed or grading and
drainage plan, which shows the runway–taxiway
system and other proposed airport features,
should be prepared.
22. Each drainage subarea should be outlined on the
plan
pipe sizes, lengths, and slopes should also be shown.
The grading plan makes it possible to select
appropriate locations for drainage ditches, inlets,
and manholes.
Storm drain inlets are placed as needed at low
points
FAA recommends that inlets be located laterally at
least 75 ft from the edge of pavements and also at
air carrier airports and 25 ft from the edge at
general aviation airports.
23. Placing drain inlets nearer to pavements
should be avoided as it might lead to ponding
and may cause flooding or saturation of sub-
grade
24.
25. 2. Design of Underground Pipe
System
After the location of ditches, pipes, inlets, and manholes on the layout next
step is to determine the size and gradient of pipe
The Manning equation is the most popular formula for determination of the
flow characteristics in pipes.
Its use is recommended by the FAA in the design of underground airport
pipe systems
where
Q = discharge (cfs)
A = cross-sectional area of flow (ft2)
R = hydraulic radius (ft: area of section/wetted perimeter)
S = slope of pipe invert (ft/ft)
n = coefficient of roughness of pipe
26. It is important that sufficient velocities be
maintained to prevent the deposition and
accumulation of suspended matter within the
pipes.
a mean velocity of 2.5 ft/sec will normally
prevent the depositing of suspended matter in
the pipes
27. Ponding
When the rate of runoff inflow at a drainage
inlet exceeds the capacity of the drainage
structure to remove it, temporary storage or
ponding occurs in the vicinity of the inlet.
Excessive ponding is not desirable
Operational hazards
Damage of pavement subgrades
Kills grass
Hence probability of ponding and its
magnitude must be understood.
28. Study involves the computation of runoff that flows
into ponding system, then the runoff removed by
the drainage facilities
Vin = QCIAt
Vout = qct
qc = capacity of drainage system
Capacity is independent of time hence varies linearly
It is also possible determine the amount of ponding at
different times.
Cumulative runoff graphs can be used to evaluate
ponding
29.
30. 3. Design of Open Channels
Open channels, ditches play a major role in
airport drainage system
Size, shape, and slope of these channels must
be carefully determined
Avoid overflow, flooding, erosion
Flow in long, open channels is assumed to be
uniform
Energy losses due to friction are balanced by
slope
Hence, mannings equation can be applied
here.
31. To solve the Manning equation directly, the
depth and cross-sectional area of flow and the
slope, shape, and frictional characteristics of
the channel must be known.
By solving the manning equation, we can
design the cross-section of channel according
to our requirement
Nomographs and charts are used for
eliminating the use of mannings equation
Generally, wide and shallow open channels are
preferred
32. Channel slope should not be steeper than
2.5:1 (H:V)
To prevent erosion flow velocities should be
restricted to standard values
When flow velocity exceeds 6ft/s special
treatment and lining should be done to edges
and sides
33.
34. Design of inlets, manholes and
headwalls
Where high heads are permissible, the
capacity of an inlet grating can be determined
by the orifice formula
For low heads, the discharge conforms to the
general weir equation
35. With the equations given above, the number
and size of grates needed to accommodate a
given runoff and head can be readily
determined.
The general weir formula should be applied for
aircraft servicing aprons and other areas
where significant ponding depths would be
unacceptable.
The orifice formula normally applies to grates
in turfed areas
A safety factor 1.25 for paved areas and 1.5 –
2.0 for turfed areas should be applied.
36. 4.Subsurface Drainage
Special drainage systems are required to control
and avoid the undesirable effects of sub-surface
moisture
Subsurface drainage has three functions
to drain wet soil masses
to intercept and divert subsurface flows, and
to lower and control the water table.
Subsurface drains consist of small pipes (typically
6–8 in. in diameter) which are laid in trenches
approximately 1.5–2.0 wide and backfilled with a
pervious filter material.
37. The pipes should be bedded in a minimum
thickness of filter material.
Subsurface drainage systems are most likely
to be effective in sandy clays, clay silts, and
sandy silts.
The finer grained materials (predominantly
silts and clays) are more difficult to drain
whereas the coarser grainer materials (gravels
and sands) tend to be self-draining.
38. Subsurface drainage systems must be inspected
and maintained. To allow for this manholes should
be placed at intervals of not more than 1000 ft and
at principal junction points in base and subgrade
drainage systems.
Inspection and flushing holes (risers) are normally
placed between manholes and at dead ends.
It is recommended that subsurface drains be laid
on a slope of at least 0.15 ft/100 ft.
the drain pipes must be backfilled with a carefully
graded filter material.
