An experimental investigation has been conducted in the non-rotating annular test facility of the "Laboratoire de Thermique Appliquée et de Turbomachines" (LTT), "École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne" (EPFL). During this investigation, the unsteady aer ...
This investigation centers on the effects of oscillating normal shocks in unsteady flow. Systematic measurements in a turbine model in an annular cascade preceded the detailed investigations. This setup was used to detect the phenomena which cause shock in ...
Reasons for the continuing difficulty in making definitive measurements of pulse wave attenuation in elastic tubes and arteries in the presence of reflections are sought. The measurement techniques available were re-examined in elastic tubes mimicking the ...
The paper discusses numerical simulations of dispersion processes of inert solutes in two-dimensional random log-permeability fields Y(x). A suitable number of realizations is generated preserving a given spatial correlation structure. For each realization ...
This paper presents investigations of unsteady flow conditions influence over cavitation dynamics. Measurements of wall pressure fluctuations in a model turbine are first introduced. It is shown that the wake of the spiral casing tongue modulates cavity dy ...
In this thesis we will show that unsteady, incompressible fluid-flow problems, as described by the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, can efficiently be simulated by a parallel computer code based on a spectral element discretization. This efficien ...
This paper presents a microfabricated impedance spectroscopy flow cytometer which permits rapid and easy dielectric characterization of cells as they flow in a microchannel. Both a simple theoretical model and a finite element simulation show that the effe ...
