Scaling behavior of bedload transport: what if Bagnold was right?

There is a paradox in the relationship between bedload transport rates and flow variables: laboratory and field studies have reported on how bedload transport rates depend on flow variables through a power law, but none of the empirical laws fitted to the ...

Growth, timing, & trajectory of vortices behind a rotating plate

Diego Francescangeli

The presence of aerodynamic vortices is widespread in nature. They can be found at small scales near the wing tip of flying insects or at bigger scale in the form of hurricanes, cyclones or even galaxies. They are identified as coherent regions of high vor ...

Homogenization-based design of microstructured membranes: wake flows past permeable shells

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

A formal framework to characterize and control/optimize the flow past permeable membranes by means of a homogenization approach is proposed and applied to the wake flow past a permeable cylindrical shell. From a macroscopic viewpoint, a Navier-like effecti ...

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

Konstantin Mikityuk

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 ...

Fluid flow through replicated microcellular materials in the Darcy-Forchheimer regime

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, David Ingram, Alexandros Athanasiou-Ioannou, Sandra Guardia

We extend here a “bottleneck” flow model derived earlier for incompressible fluids flowing under creeping flow conditions [Despois, J. and Mortensen, A: Acta Materialia 53 (2005) 1381] to flow regimes where inertial losses are no longer negligible, causing ...

Basal entrainment by Newtonian gravity-driven flows

Christophe Ancey, Nicolas Andreini, Belinda Margaret Bates

Gravity-driven flows can erode the bed along which they descend and increase their mass by a factor of 10 or more. This process is called basal entrainment. Although documented by field observations and laboratory experiments, it remains poorly understood. ...

High resolution infrared measurements of single-phase flow of R245fa and R236fa within a compact plate heat exchanger, Part 1: Experimental setup and pressure drop results

John Richard Thome, Raffaele Luca Amalfi

This two-part paper presents experimental work to characterize thermal and hydraulic performances of a compact plate heat exchanger. Upward single-phase heat transfer and pressure drop of low pressure, liquid refrigerants R245fa and R236fa was investigated ...

High resolution infrared measurements of single-phase flow of R245fa and R236fa within a compact plate heat exchanger, Part 2: Heat transfer results

John Richard Thome, Raffaele Luca Amalfi

In the second article of the present two-part paper, upward single-phase heat transfer within a compact plate heat exchanger was investigated experimentally. The experimental setup, the data reduction technique and pressure drop results were presented in P ...

Impact of rotating and fixed nozzles on vortex breakdown in compressible swirling jet flows

François Gallaire, Leonhard Kleiser

Vortex breakdown of swirling, round jet flows is investigated in the compressible, subsonic regime by means of Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). This is achieved by solving the compressible Navier-Stokes equations on a cylindrical grid using high-order sp ...
