The critical layer in pipe flow at high Reynolds number [PDF]
We report the computation of a family of travelling wave solutions of pipe flow up to Re =75 000. As in all lower branch solutions, streaks and rolls feature prominently in these solutions. For large Re , these solutions develop a critical layer away from the wall.

Nonlinear aspects of high Reynolds number channel flows [PDF]
This paper considers the flow in a two-dimensional channel at high Reynolds number, with wall deformations which can lead to flow separation. An asymptotic model is proposed by using the successive complementary expansion method with generalized ...

Phenomenology of a flow around a circular cylinder at sub-critical and critical Reynolds numbers [PDF]
In this work, the flow around a circular cylinder is investigated at Reynolds numbers ranging from 79 000 up to 238 000 by means of a combined acquisition system based on Temperature Sensitive Paint (TSP) and particle velocimetry. The proposed setup allows simultaneous and time-resolved measurement of absolute temperature and relative skin friction ...

Unsteady forces on a circular cylinder at critical Reynolds numbers [PDF]
It is well known that the flow past a circular cylinder at critical Reynolds number combines flow separation, turbulence transition, reattachment of the flow, and further turbulent separation of the boundary layer. The transition to turbulence in the boundary layer causes the delaying of the separation point and an important reduction of the drag force

A 'reciprocal' theorem for the prediction of loads on a body moving in an inhomogeneous flow at arbitrary Reynolds number [PDF]
Several forms of a theorem providing general expressions for the force and torque acting on a rigid body of arbitrary shape moving in an inhomogeneous incompressible flow at arbitrary Reynolds number are derived.

Effects of the Reynolds Number on the Efficiency and Stall Mechanisms in a Three-stage Axial Compressor [PDF]
The Reynolds number (Re) is an important parameter that can affect compressor performance. This study experimentally and numerically investigated the effect of Re variations on the efficiency and stall mechanisms for a three-stage axial flow compressor ...

Bluff bodies in deep turbulent boundary layers: Reynolds-number issues [PDF]
It is generally assumed that flows around wall-mounted sharp-edged bluff bodies submerged in thick turbulent boundary layers are essentially independent of the Reynolds number Re, provided that this exceeds some (2–3) × 104.
