Exposure Experiments to Test the Kinetic Stability of 5‐Hydroxymethylfurfural Oxidase (HMFO) in Different Reactor Environments

open access: yesChemCatChem, EarlyView.
Scaling beyond the laboratory exposes enzymes to new stresses. Exposure experiments reveal that dynamic gas‐liquid interfaces introduced by sparging or air entrainment during agitation are the main drivers of HMFO deactivation. Replacing bubbles with a membrane‐based bubble‐free aeration system dramatically enhances stability. These experiments provide

Numerical and experimental investigation of swirling flow in a conical diffuser

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The decelerated swirling flow often breaks down into helical structure which is unstable and causes unsteady velocity and pressure fields. The numerical and experimental investigation of this flow pattern is carried out on the experimental apparatus ...

Equations for Turbulent Flood Waves [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1994
Long waves in rivers, estuaries and floods are described by the St Venant and Boussinesq equations in classical fluid dynamics. Based on the widely used $k$-$\epsilon$ model for turbulence, we use the techniques of centre manifold theory to show how these classical models can be derived from a unified approach to low-dimensional modelling.

An Improved K-Epsilon Model for Near-Wall Turbulence and Comparison with Direct Numerical Simulation [PDF]

open access: yes
An improved k-epsilon model for low Reynolds number turbulence near a wall is presented. The near-wall asymptotic behavior of the eddy viscosity and the pressure transport term in the turbulent kinetic energy equation is analyzed. Based on this analysis,

Improving the Efficiency of a Bioreactor Equipped With Mixed‐Flow Impellers

open access: yesChemical Engineering &Technology, EarlyView.
The present work investigated the biological performance of mixed‐flow impellers. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first experimental study on such impellers in a fermentation process using A. vinelandii, which was chosen as a microorganism due to its high oxygen demand.

First and Second Order Turbulence Closures Applied to Homogeneous Turbulent Bubbly Flows

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2019
First and second turbulence models for turbulent bubbly flows are implemented in the CFD code. In the second order turbulence closure, the Reynolds stress tensor of the continuous phase is split into two parts: a turbulent part produced by the gradient ...

Modeling of near-wall turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes
An improved k-epsilon model and a second order closure model is presented for low Reynolds number turbulence near a wall. For the k-epsilon model, a modified form of the eddy viscosity having correct asymptotic near wall behavior is suggested, and a ...
