Swirl jets in crosflow are investigated experimentally and numerically. The main difference with non-swirl cases is an asymmetry of the dominant kidney vortex and a slight distortion of the jet trace downstream of the injection hole. Jet rotation, at relat ...
In this paper, we discuss the application of IsoGeometric Analysis to incompressible viscous flow problems. We consider, as a prototype problem, the Stokes system and we propose various choices of compatible spline spaces for the approximations to the velo ...
The roughness coefficient is a significant factor in hydraulic design process, but carries vast uncertainty in practice. This paper reports the resistance coefficients of corrugated PVC pipes under different flow regimes (i.e. pressurised, gradually varied ...
Side-channels are a typical element of earth or rockfill dams to discharge floods sideways instead frontally, such as normally adopted for concrete dams. The side channel received attention from the hydraulics community from the 1920s, once the first large ...
It is known that, when the immersed boundary method (IBM) is implemented within spectral-like methods, the Gibbs oscillation seriously deteriorates the calculation of derivatives near the body surface. In this paper, a radial basis function (RBF) based smo ...
The prediction of flutter and forced response at normal flow conditions has become a standard procedure during the design of compressor airfoils. But at severe off-design conditions, the flow field becomes very complex, especially during the surge blow-dow ...
In pipe systems, pressure and flow fluctuations below cutoff frequency propagate as plane waves along pipes. Depending on the pipe length and propagation velocity, resonance leading to high amplitude pressure fluctuation may occur. At low pressure, cavitat ...
The axial compressor is an essential component of aero-engines and gas turbines. This work investigates how flow control by aspiration applied to the hub and to the blades of axial compressor wheels can improve the static pressure rise by preventing detrim ...
This paper presents a Lagrangian approach for the simulation of two-dimensional free-surface flows along with a systematic validation. Fluid-flow is traditionally modeled using an Eulerian description in association with finite differences and, more recent ...
Meandering rivers and streams are a common planform in the world’s populated areas. Furthermore the recent increased focus on renaturalization projects has lead policy makers to also consider the partial remeandering of previously trained rivers. Economic ...
