Influence of the meandering channel geometry on the thermo-hydraulic performances of an intensified heatexchanger/reactor [PDF]
, 2013 In the global context of process intensification, heat exchanger/reactors are promising apparatuses to implement exothermic chemical syntheses. However, unlike heat exchange processes, the implementation of chemical syntheses requires to control the ...

PIV-Measurements of Centrifugal Instabilities in a Rectangular Curved Duct with a Small Aspect Ratio
Fluids, 2021 In this study, experimental measurements were undertaken using non-intrusive particle image velocimetry (PIV) to investigate fluid flow within a 180° rectangular, curved duct geometry of a height-to-width aspect ratio of 0.167 and a curvature of 0.54 ...

Laminar-turbulent transition in Taylor-Dean flow
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2005 An experimental study is reported of flows produced in a moderate Taylor-Couette system, Γ ≈ 15, closed or azimuthally opened. In the last case, the flow is bounded by θ = 0 and (2π − θ1) where θ1 = 30° represents the region cut-off by a diaphragm.
