Simplified Model Of Duct Flow

Simplified, lumped-parameter mathematical model of flow in duct proves useful in estimating quasi-steady inlet and outlet flows. Simulates important features of compressible or incompressible flows including aspiration, shock losses, combustion, transfers of heat, and changes in phase. Also simulates flows in straight or twisted ducts with constant or varying cross sections. In comparision with full three-dimensional, finite-difference model, requires much less computation and matched with experimental data more easily.

Digital Low-Pass Filter Without Phase Shift

Relatively simple low-pass-filtering algorithm suppresses high-frequency noise in digitally sampled signal. Algorithm derived from convolution of signal with causal exponential. Filter implemented by algorithm does not introduce phase shift. Algorithm applies forward convolution in time followed by backward convolution in time, and phase shift in second convolution cancels phase shift in first convolution.
