Longitudinal velocity measurements above a uniform dry lakebed were carried out to investigate the applicability of the random sweeping decorrelation hypothesis to thermally stratified turbulent flow. The higher order velocity structure functions of order ...
The precise flow-rate measurement is a basic problem in the management and the exploitation of a hydraulic power-plant. The efficiency characterisation of an hydraulic machinery or of a water distribution net is linked to the accurate knowledge of the flow ...
The feasibility of Thomson scattering to determine the beam velocity in a gyrotron has been analyzed and preliminary experiments to implement such a system on our 100 GHz quasi-optical gyrotron are reported. Although the project had to be abandoned due to ...
The present work focuses on the flow characteristics and mixing induced by Sulzer SMRX static mixers. It is obsd. both exptl. and numerically that pressure drop increases linearly with velocity for this mixer type and that, as expected, this effect is ampl ...
The structure df atmospheric surface layer turbulence low wavenumbers was analyzed using 56 Hz triaxial velocity and temperature measurements above a uniform dry lake bed, A key feature of this experiment was the, small roughness length of the surface that ...
The shallow flow expansion is used to derive equations describing the flow of fluid in an unconfined aquifer. The expansion, which is carried out to second order, is combined with an approximation accounting for the influence of the capillary fringe to giv ...
The aim of this paper is to present the results obtained with a 3-D numerical method allowing the prediction of the cavitation behaviour of a centrifugal pump and to compare this prediction to model tests. The proposed method consists in assuming the cavit ...

We develop a model to investigate the time evolution of the mean location and variance of a random walker subject to Poisson-distributed collisions at constant rate. The collisions are instantaneous velocity changes where a new value of velocity is generat ...
