Research on wellhead flow detection method at low Reynolds number
International Journal of Thermofluids, 2023 The detection of wellhead fluid flow is critical in the development of low-production wells. The production status can be evaluated according to the flow of production wells. The thermal flowmeter designed in this paper mainly measures the flow of single-

Noisy swimming at low Reynolds numbers [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2009 Small organisms (e.g., bacteria) and artificial microswimmers move due to a combination of active swimming and passive Brownian motion. Considering a simplified linear three-sphere swimmer, we study how the swimmer size regulates the interplay between self-driven and diffusive behavior at low Reynolds number.

Rotational Maneuvers of Copepod Nauplii at Low Reynolds Number
Fluids, 2020 Copepods are agile microcrustaceans that are capable of maneuvering freely in water. However, the physical mechanisms driving their rotational motion are not entirely clear in small larvae (nauplii).

Biotechnology at low Reynolds numbers
Biophysical Journal, 1996 The shrinking of liquid handling systems to the micron and submicron size range entails moving into the area of small Reynolds numbers. The fluid dynamics in this regime are very different from the macroscale. We present an intuitive explanation of how the different physics of small Reynolds numbers flow, along with microscopic sizes, can influence ...

Optimal Strokes of Low Reynolds Number Linked-Sphere Swimmers
Applied Sciences, 2019 Optimal gait design is important for micro-organisms and micro-robots that propel themselves in a fluid environment in the absence of external force or torque.

Low-Reynolds-number swimming in a capillary tube [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2013 AbstractWe use the boundary element method to study the low-Reynolds-number locomotion of a spherical model microorganism in a circular tube. The swimmer propels itself by tangential or normal surface motion in a tube whose radius is of the order of the swimmer size.

Numerical simulation of low reynolds number 2-d rough blade compressor cascade
Frontiers in Energy Research, 2022 In this paper, a double-circular-arc cascade was used as the research object to study the effect of roughness on the compressor cascade under the conditions of different incoming attack angles. The Reynolds number of the cascade is 1.5×105 .

Low Reynolds Number Rotor Blade Aerodynamic Analysis
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 Maintaining a steady hover flight in a rotorcraft usually requires high energy input. The aim of the paper is to prove that it is possible to vastly reduce energy use in a rotorcraft by reducing the disc loading.

Control surface effectiveness of low Reynolds number flight vehicles
Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2014 Low-speed wind tunnel tests are carried out to investigate the control surface effectiveness at low Reynolds numbers (Re = 20,000-80,000). A thick airfoil, NACA0012, has a nonlinearity of the control surface effectiveness, which are associated with flow ...

Flow characteristics over NACA4412 airfoil at low Reynolds number
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016 In this study, the flow phenomena over NACA4412 were experimentally observed at various angle of attack and Reynolds number of 25000, 50000 and 75000, respectively.
