Sentence examples for drag factors from inspiring English sources

Historically, interaction forces have tended to be expressed in terms of drag factors, within a traditional fluid mechanics framework, with the drag factors depending strongly on an equivalent Reynolds number for the non-Newtonian debris material.

With 1992 approaching our unashamed European commitment could be turned from a political drag factor to a positive asset.

A normalized drag factor allows direct comparison of different dopants, and validation of theoretically predicted trends.

An empirically determined measure of the solute drag force called the drag factor is derived and defined.

From the obtained data, the order of magnitude of the drag factor for slushflows interacting with obstacles could be estimated.

The objective was to maximize the drag factor by closing the vanes on convex shape and opening when air hits the concave part.

The solute drag factor is also used to understand the role of drag in grain-boundaries that have mobilities that are enhanced relative to the pure material.

The drag factor is the derivative of mobility with respect to grain size, and describes well the drag effect of solute in the six different aluminas measured.

The analogy provides simple correlations for pressure drop and heat transfer prediction that contain explicitly permeability, drag factor and thermal dispersion.

Due to the movement of vanes for and against the wind, a higher drag factor is worked on the impeller scoop-frame type with movable vanes and has higher efficiency than flat vanes.

A larger "slip" velocity of coolant occurs at a higher permeability, a smaller quadratic drag factor, or a larger width ratio of fin-to-pitch, which corresponds to a larger "slip" length.
