    Tallinn Radiocarbon Dates IV (1977)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1977-01-01
    Description: The following list includes samples dated in 1975. The measurement of 14C activity was performed with 1-channel and 2-channel scintillation devices. Special attention was paid to the decrease of the background. The effectiveness of the measurement is ca 50% (Punning, Rajamäe, 1975). The “enriched standard” (Alekseejev et al, 1971) has been used as a contemporary reference standard of modern carbon. Age calculations are based on the 14C half-life of 5568 ± 30 yr, with 1950 as the standard year of reference. All samples are calculated to ± 1σ with respect to sample, standard and background after counting times of at least 2800 minutes. 13C/12C measurements and corrections have not been made for these samples.

    Glasgow University Radiocarbon Measurements VIII (1976)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1976-01-01
    Description: The analytical facilities at Glasgow have been extended to include gas proportional (CO2 and CH4) and liquid scintillation (C6H6) counting laboratories. The results presented here were obtained during 1972-1974 using the CO2 gas counting system only. In brief, organic samples, after pretreatment as described in the text, are burned in a tube combustion unit and the evolved CO2 absorbed in KOH solution. BaCO3 is precipitated and acid-hydrolyzed in vacuo using H3PO4. Evolved CO2 is purified via adsorption/desorption on CaO and is stored prior to counting. The 2.6L proportional counter is surrounded by a gas-flow Geiger anticoincidence guard and 10cm thick Pb shielding to reduce background count rates to ca 4.9 cpm at 1 atm filling and barometric pressures. A barometric sensitivity in background of −0.01cpm/mbar is observed. Constant gas gain is ensured by monitoring the coincidence meson spectrum and normalizing the detector operating voltage. All sample activities are related to the NBS oxalic acid standard count rate which averages 14.71 cpm at 1 atm filling pressure and 15°C. Mass spectrometric assay of CO2 after counting is performed on a VG Micromass 602B instrument to a precision of 0.05% (±1σ). Since uncertainties quoted on all results represent 1σ counting errors alone, they are related to precision of measurement rather than accuracy. The bulk of data quoted here are connected with a long-term study of the medical aspects of artificial 14C from nuclear weapon tests. These results should therefore be assessed in conjunction with those pub previously (Harkness and Walton, 1972; Farmer et al, 1972).

    On the stability of slowly varying flow: the divergent channel (1975)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1975-05-27
    Description: The linear stability of a slowly varying flow, the flow in a diverging straight-walled channel, is studied using a modification of the ‘WKB’ or ‘ray’ method. It is shown that ‘quasi-parallel’ theory, the usual method for handling such flows, gives the formally correct lowest-order growth rate; however, this growth rate can be substantially in error if its magnitude is comparable to that of the rate of change of the basic state. The method used clearly demonstrates the dependence of the growth rate, wavenumber, neutral curves, etc., on the cross-stream variable and on the flow quantity under consideration. When applied to the divergent channel, the method yields a much wider ‘unstable’ region and a much lower ‘critical’ Reynolds number (depending on the flow quantity used) than those predicted by quasi-parallel theory. The determination of the downstream development of waves of constant frequency shows that waves of all frequencies eventually decay. © 1975, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

    Separation in a slow linear shear flow past a cylinder and a plane (1977)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1977-07-01
    Description: In a slow linear shear flow over a cylinder in contact with a plane, there is an infinite set of eddies within the cusps at the point of contact. If the cylinder is not in contact with the plane, there is a flux of fluid between the cylinder and the plane, no matter how small the gap. When the gap is approximately 0.685 times the cylinder radius or less, the flow separates from the boundaries. Single eddies form alternately on the plane and the cylinder. These interlace as the cylinder approaches the plane and force the fluid which flows through the gap to take a tortuous path. The expressions for the force and torque acting on the cylinder are also given. © 1977, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

    Transonic equivalence rule: a nonlinear problem involving lift (1975)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1975-11-11
    Description: The inviscid transonic flow past a thin wing having swept leading edges, with smooth lift and thickness distributions, is shown to possess an outer nonlinear structure determined principally by a line source and a line doublet. Three domains (the thickness-dominated, the intermediate, and the lift-dominated), representing different degrees of lift control of the outer flow, are identified; a transonic equivalence rule valid in all three domains is established. Except in one domain, departure from the Whitcomb-Oswatitsch area rule is significant; the equivalent body corresponding to the source effect has an increased cross-sectional area depending nonlinearly on the lift. This nonlinear lift contribution results from the second-order corrections to the inner (Jones) solution, but produces effects of first-order importance in the outer flow. Of interest is an afterbody effect dependent on the vortex drag, which is not accounted for by the classical transonic small-disturbance theory. © 1975, Cambridge University Press.

    Computation of the flow between two rotating coaxial disks (1977)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1977-08-05
    Description: A numerical investigation of the problem of rotating disks is made using the Newton–Raphson method. It is shown that the governing equations may exhibit one, three or five solutions. A physical interpretation of the calculated profiles will be presented. The results computed reveal that both Batchelor and Stewartson analysis yields for high Reynolds numbers results which are in agreement with our observations, i.e. the fluid may rotate as a rigid body or the main body of the fluid may be almost at rest, respectively. Occurrence of a two-cell situation at particular branches will be discussed. © 1977, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

    The free shear layer tone phenomenon and probe interference (1978)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1978-07-26
    Description: Free shear layer stability measurements with a hot wire revealed that the probe itself can trigger and sustain upstream instability modes like the slit jet-wedge edge tones. The flow fields associated with the free shear layer tones induced in axisym-metric and plane air shear layers by a hot-wire probe and by a plane wedge were then explored experimentally, and found to be different in many ways from the widely investigated jet edge tone phenomenon. As many as four frequency stages have been identified, there being a fifth stage associated with the subharmonic attributed to vortex pairing in the free shear layer. No evidence of hysteresis could be found in the shear layer tone. In the interstage jump (i.e. bimodal) regions, the tone occurred in only one mode at a time while intermittently switching from one to the other. Frequency variations in each stage are shown to collapse on a single curve when non-dimensionalized with the initial momentum thickness θe or with the lip-wedge distance h, and plotted as a function of h/θe. Phase average measurements locked onto the tone fundamental show that the phase velocity and wavelength of the tone-induced velocity fluctuation are essentially independent of the stage of tone generation; in each stage, both phase velocity and wavelength decrease with increasing frequency but undergo jumps at starts of new stages. The measured amplitude and phase profiles, as well as the variations of the shear tone wavenumber and phase velocity with the Strouhal number, show reasonable agreement with the predictions of the spatial stability theory. The wavelength λ bears a unique relation to h, this h, δ relation being different from the Brown-Curle equation for the jet edge tone. Shear layer tones would be typically induced in near-field shear layer measurements involving invasive probes, and can produce misleading results. A method for determining the true free shear layer natural instability frequency is recommended. © 1978, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

    Ground effects on pressure fluctuations in the atmospheric boundary layer (1978)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1978-06-14
    Description: Proposals are made for modelling the pressure-containing correlations which appear in the transport equations for Reynolds stress and heat flux in a simple way which accounts for gravitational effects and the modification of the fluctuating pressure field by the presence of a wall. The predicted changes in structure are shown to agree with Young's (1975) measurements in a free stratified shear flow and with the Kansas data on the atmospheric surface layer. © 1978, Cambridge University Press.
