Air entrainment in hydraulic engineering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Despite the relevance of 'white water' phenomena to hydraulic engineering, most progresses have been led by multiphase flow experts. In this paper the writer reviews the basic mechanisms of air entrainment : singular aeration and interfacial entrainment. He presents a ba-sic dimensional analysis and he discusses similitude and scale effects.

Air Entrainment and Slope Erosion During Overflow on a Levee Covered by Non-Uniform Turfgrass

open access: yesFluids
To mitigate flood damage caused by overflow from a levee, it is essential to prevent the levee failure or extend the time to breaching. Although turfgrass on a levee slope is effective in suppressing erosion, insufficient maintenance can reduce its ...

Numerical Simulation and Evaluation of Campbell Running and Gating Systems

open access: yesMetals, 2020
The most common problems encountered in sand casting foundries are related to sand inclusions, air, and oxide films entrainment. These issues can be addressed to a good extent or eliminated by designing proper running systems.

An Experimental Analysis of Water–Air Two-Phase Flow Pattern and Air Entrainment Rate in Self-Entrainment Venturi Nozzles

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
For self-entrainment venturi nozzles, the effects of nozzle shapes and operating conditions on the water–air two-phase flow pattern, and the characteristics of the air entrainment rate have been investigated.

Zwitterionic Polymer Coating Enabled Chronic Dopamine Sensing and Electrophysiology Recording in Free‐Moving Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Application of a zwitterionic poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (PSB) coating to microelectrode arrays and Ag/AgCl reference electrodes effectively inhibits biofouling and structural degradation. This strategy successfully enables simultaneous, long‐term electrophysiological recording and dopamine sensing in freely behaving mice, facilitating ...

Measurement of the Film Thickness, Film Velocity and Entrainment Fraction in a Liquid-Air Annular Flow Using a Conductance Flowmeter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In certain older oil wells in the Middle East, the produced fluid is predominantly natural gas which flows at very high rates (e.g. 50,000 m3 / day ). Smaller quantities of crude oil (e.g. 50m3 / day ) and water (950m3 / day ) are also produced.

In-Roll Stress Analysis Considering Air-Entrainment at the Roll-Inlet with the Effect of Grooves on Nip Roll Surface

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2008
High-speed winding of paper web sometimes leads the winding system into unstable states, interlayer slippage of wound roll, paper breakage and so on, due to the excessive air-entrainment at the roll-inlet of nip contact region.
