Influence of geometrical parameters of chamfered or rounded orifices on head losses

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

Orifices are largely used in pipeline systems. The most common application is to measure the discharge of the water flowing through. However, orifices may be used to adapt hydroelectric power plants submitted to moderate increase of installed generation ca ...

Turbulent Flows over Rough Permeable Beds in Mountain Rivers: Experimental Insights and Modeling

Gauthier Paul Daniel Marie Rousseau

Steep mountain streams exhibit shallow waters with roughness elements such as stones and pebbles that are comparable in size to flow depth. Owing to the difficulty in measuring fluid velocities at the interface, i.e., from the rough permeable bed to the fr ...

Density effects on nanoparticle transport in the hyporheic zone

David Andrew Barry, Ho Ling Li, Qihao Jiang

A carbon solution composed of nanoparticles was used in experiments designed to explore nanoparticle transport characteristics within the hyporheic zone of a riverbed. Experiments and numerical simulations demonstrated that nanoparticle transport in the hy ...

Characterization of hydraulic behavior of orifices in conduits

Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

High-head power plants are the main pillar of Swiss peak electricity production. With the 2050 Energy Strategy approved by Swiss voters, the annual production of hydroelectricity should increase by 4%, while 90% of the technically feasible potential is alr ...

An experimental study on flow boiling pressure drop in multi-microchannel evaporators with different refrigerants

John Richard Thome, Houxue Huang

A key parameter in designing two-phase flow systems for the cooling of high heat flux electronics is the pressure drop in microchannel evaporators. As a result, an experimental study was performed to investigate the flow boiling pressure drop of refrigeran ...

Head loss coefficient through sharp-edged orifices

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Cécile Münch-Alligné, Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

Nowadays, high-head power plants could increase their installed power capacity for many reasons, e.g. dam heightening, increase of their peak power capacity or refurbishment with new turbines. Frequently, due to several considerations, e.g. topographical o ...

Bingham-Papanastasiou and Approximate Parallel Models Comparison for the Design of Magneto-Rheological Valves

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Daniel Grivon

Magneto-Rheological Fluids (MRFs) are smart materials whose physical properties can be controlled by an exciting magnetic field. MRFs are described as Bingham plastics with variable magnetic field dependent yield stress. Thanks to their particular features ...

Quadrant Analysis of Shear Events in Open Channel Flows Over Mobile and Immobile Hydraulically Rough Beds

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca

Sediment overfeeding may induce important changes in the structure of the near-bed region of gravel-bed river flows, mainly in what concerns exchange of momentum and mass between the flow within the riverbed roughness elements and the flow in the upper reg ...

Shear velocity estimates in rough-bed open-channel flow

Ulrich Lemmin, Fereshteh Bagherimiyab Hunkeler

Shear velocity u(*) is an important parameter in geophysical flows, in particular with respect to sediment transport dynamics. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of applying five standard methods [the logarithmic mean velocity profile, the Reyno ...

Discussion “Propagation of surge waves in channels with large-scale bank roughness"

Anton Schleiss, Tobias Meile

In open channels, a sudden rise in water elevation generates a positive surge. Positive surges are commonly observed in man-made channels (Bazin 1865, Treske 1994) and a natural occurrence is the tidal bore in macro-tidal estuaries (Tricker 1965, Chanson 2 ...
