Flow Simulation of Gas Cyclone Separator at High Reynolds Number Using theElliptic-Relaxation Hybrid LES/RANS (ER-HRL) Model

In this paper, we investigate Wall-Modeled Large Eddy Simulation (WMLES) in a stairmand high-efficiency cyclone separator at two Reynolds numbers i.e. Re = 33,045 - 280,000. We compute the gas flow using the elliptic relaxation hybrid RANS/LES (ER-HRL). Th ...

Directional Cross-Correlation for Improved Aberration Phase Estimation in Pulse-Echo Speed-of-Sound Imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Samuel Denys Beuret, Simon Canales

There has been a recent surge in methods targeting the recovery of a speed-of-sound map from pulse-echo ultrasound measurements. We focused in this work on a particular technique and identified a drawback shared by similar methods - namely the necessity of ...

Experimental Characterization of Additively Manufactured Metallic Heat Exchangers

Mahbod Heidari

In this study, three manifold-microchannel heat exchangers were additively manufactured by direct metal laser sintering. The heat exchangers were manufactured from stainless steel (SS17-4) with an overall dimension of 64.2 x 46.0 x 27.1 mm. The thermal and ...

Particle subgrid scale modeling in hybrid RANS/LES of turbulent channel flow at low to moderate Reynolds number

Konstantin Mikityuk

Particle dispersion in a periodic channel is studied using the elliptic relaxation hybrid RANS/LES (ER-HRL) model. This approach employs a four-equation linear eddy viscosity (LEV) model while in Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) mode near the wall, a ...

Counting using deep learning regression gives value to ecological surveys

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger

Many ecological studies rely on count data and involve manual counting of objects of interest, which is time-consuming and especially disadvantageous when time in the field or lab is limited. However, an increasing number of works uses digital imagery, whi ...

Geometric mixing

Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

Mixing fluids often involves a periodic action, like stirring one's tea. But reciprocating motions in fluids at low Reynolds number, in Stokes flows where inertia is negligible, lead to periodic cycles of mixing and unmixing, because the physics, molecular ...

Investigation of the symmetry-breaking instability in a T-mixer with circular cross section

Lorenzo Siconolfi

This paper investigates the laminar flow inside a T-mixer composed of three pipes with a circular cross section. The flow enters the mixer symmetrically from the two aligned pipes and leaves the device from the third pipe. In similar devices, but involving ...

Modelling the vertical structure of turbulent free-surface flows over rough permeable beds

Christophe Ancey, Joris Heyman, Gauthier Paul Daniel Marie Rousseau

Understanding diffusive processes across the sediment-water interface is important for quantifying hyporheic exchanges and related biogeochemical processes (e.g., denitrification, biomass growth). Viscous, turbulent and dispersive effects all contribute to ...

Modeling turbulent stream flows over rough permeable beds

Christophe Ancey, Ivan Pascal, Gauthier Paul Daniel Marie Rousseau

In steep streams, turbulent flows run over coarse sediments that are similar in size to flow depth. Under these conditions, a significant part of the flow may seep through the permeable bed. Based on experimental data, this paper presents a model able to r ...

Sparse convolutional plane-wave compounding for ultrasound imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Adrien Besson

Ultrafast ultrasound imaging enables imaging at kilohertz frame rates, at the cost of a degraded image quality in terms of contrast and resolution. To reach an image quality comparable to focused imaging, the standard technique is coherent compounding, whi ...
