    Computer program for calculating critical speeds of rotating shafts

    Get PDF
    Shaft may include bearings, couplings, extra masses, and disks for gyroscopic effect. Shaft deflection is taken into account and provision is made in program for sections of shaft that are tapered. Plotter produces drawing of shaft with superimposed deflection curves at critical speeds together with all pertinent information related to shaft

    GASPLOT - A computer graphics program that draws a variety of thermophysical property charts

    Get PDF
    A FORTRAN V computer program, written for the UNIVAC 1100 series, is used to draw a variety of precision thermophysical property charts on the Calcomp plotter. In addition to the program (GASPLOT), which requires (15 160) sub 10 storages, a thermophysical properties routine needed to produce plots. The program is designed so that any two of the state variables, the derived variables, or the transport variables may be plotted as the ordinate - abscissa pair with as many as five parametric variables. The parameters may be temperature, pressure, density, enthalpy, and entropy. Each parameter may have as many a 49 values, and the range of the variables is limited only by the thermophysical properties routine

    The effect of minority carrier mobility variations on solar cell spectral response

    Get PDF
    Analysis of multistep diffused, high voltage 0.1 ohm-cm solar cells suggests that the increased voltage capability of these cells is correlated with localized variations in the base minority carrier mobility. An attempt to calculate the behavior of those cells revealed unexpected results. It is shown, contrary to what was expected, that spatial variations in the mobility effects severe changes in the short-circuit current and the spectral response. Variations in cell output as a result of imposing abrupt, linear, and exponential mobility variations are presented
