Study on the Temporal and Spatial Evolution Mechanism of Rotating Cavitation in the First Stage Impeller of LNG Submersible Pump With Two‐Stage Splitter Blades

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study establishes a full‐flow passage numerical model of an LNG submerged pump equipped with two‐stage splitter blades through three‐dimensional modeling. Numerical simulations validated by liquid nitrogen experiments demonstrate that at 1.4 times the design flow rate, the peak efficiency reaches 60.6%, with a maximum head of 194.93 m ...

Life at low Reynolds number [PDF]

open access: possibleAIP Conference Proceedings, 1976
E d i t o r’s note: This is a reprint (slightly edited) of a paper of the same title that appeared in the book Physics and Our World: A Symposium in Honor of Victor F. Weisskopf, published by the American Institute of Physics (1976). The personal tone of the original talk has been preserved in the paper, which was itself a slightly edited transcript of

Intermittency and Reynolds number

Physics of Fluids, 1998
Hot wire measurements of longitudinal and transverse increments are performed in three different types of flows on a large range of Reynolds numbers (100≲Rλ≲3000). An improved technique based on cumulant expansion of velocity structure functions is used to estimate the spreading of the pdfs and to study their scaling properties in the inertial range ...

The cell Reynolds number myth

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, 1985
AbstractThe commonly accepted linear stability analysis for the forward‐time centred‐space (FTCS) algorithm applied to the transport equation has led to the concept of a cell Reynolds number restriction on the spatial grid size. This paper shows where the commonly accepted original analysis is in error and presents the correct stability restrictions ...

Effects of Reynolds Number and Turbulent Intensity on a Low Reynolds Number Airfoil [PDF]

open access: possible32nd AIAA Applied Aerodynamics Conference, 2014
The work investigates the effect of turbulent intensity (Tu) on the force and wake of a NACA0012 airfoil at chord Reynolds number Rec = 5.3×103 and 2×104. Lift and drag coefficients (CL and CD) on and flow fields around the airfoil were measured with Tu varied from 0.6% to 6.0%.

Uniqueness and the Cell Reynolds Number

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, 1980
Using some results from the theory of M-functions, we show how uniqueness and multiplicity of solutions for three finite-difference approximations of the steady Burgers equation are related to the cell Reynolds number.

Low-Reynolds-number predator

Physical Review E, 2015
To generalize simple bead-linker model of swimmers to higher dimensions and to demonstrate the chemotaxis ability of such swimmers, here we introduce a low-Reynolds predator, using a two-dimensional triangular bead-spring model. Two-state linkers as mechanochemical enzymes expand as a result of interaction with particular activator substances in the ...
