Model predictions and experimental results for the rotordynamic characteristics of leakage flows in centrifugal pumps [PDF]
The role played by fluid forces in determining the rotordynamic stability and characteristics of a centrifugal pump is gaining increasing attention. The present research investigates the contributions to the rotordynamic forces from the discharge-to ...

Effect of solid thermal conductivity and particle-particle contact on effective thermodiffusion coefficient in porous media [PDF]
Transient mass transfer associated to a thermal gradient through a saturated porous medium is studied experimentally and theoretically to determine the effect of solid thermal conductivity and particle-particle contact on thermodiffusion processes.

Thermal vibrational convection in near-critical fluids. Part 2. Weakly non-uniform heating [PDF]
The governing equations and effective boundary conditions to describe thermal vibrational convection in a near-critical fluid are derived with the help of the multiple-scale method and averaging procedure. In contrast to Part 1, this paper focuses on the

Experimental study of the transport properties of rough self-affine fractures [PDF]
An experimental study of the transport properties of fluid-saturated joints composed of two complementary rough fracture surfaces, translated with respect to each other and brought in contact, is reported. Quantitative roughness measurements on different

Analytical continuum mechanics \`a la Hamilton-Piola: least action principle for second gradient continua and capillary fluids [PDF]
In this paper a stationary action principle is proven to hold for capillary fluids, i.e. fluids for which the deformation energy has the form suggested, starting from molecular arguments, for instance by Cahn and Hilliard.

Écoulements au-dessus de macro-rugosités artificielles constituées de plots
Les écoulements au-dessus de macro-rugosités, dans lesquels les dimensions des éléments rugueux sont du même ordre de grandeur que les profondeurs des écoulements, trouvent de nombreuses applications dans l'hydraulique environnementale, en particulier ...
