A 'reciprocal' theorem for the prediction of loads on a body moving in an inhomogeneous flow at arbitrary Reynolds number [PDF]
Several forms of a theorem providing general expressions for the force and torque acting on a rigid body of arbitrary shape moving in an inhomogeneous incompressible flow at arbitrary Reynolds number are derived.

Analysis of low Reynolds number flow past Gurney flap [PDF]
The trailing edge region of a single element wing fitted with Gurney flap at low Reynoldsnumbers has been studied.The complex flow separation phenomena on airfoils with Gurney flap at low Reynolds numbershave some specific features as the separation on ...

Turbulence via Intermolecular Potential: Viscosity and Transition Range of the Reynolds Number
Turbulence in fluids is an ubiquitous phenomenon, characterized by spontaneous transition of a smooth, laminar flow to rapidly changing, chaotic dynamics.

High-Reynolds-Number Flow past a Pipe
The present aim is to reveal the flow past a pipe which is immersed parallel to the mainstream at high Reynolds numbers. In a wind tunnel, we carry out (1) base-pressure measurements, (2) velocity-fluctuation measurements using a hot-wire anemometer and (

Comparison of a grid-based CFD method and vortex dynamics predictions of low Reynolds number cylinder flow [PDF]
Computational fluid dynamics models range from the finite difference type grid-based method to the Lagrangian style vortex cloud simulation technique for solving the Navier-Stokes equations.

Bluff bodies in deep turbulent boundary layers: Reynolds-number issues [PDF]
It is generally assumed that flows around wall-mounted sharp-edged bluff bodies submerged in thick turbulent boundary layers are essentially independent of the Reynolds number Re, provided that this exceeds some (2–3) × 104.

Geometrically Nonlinear Static Analysis of High-Aspect-Ratio Truss-Braced Wing
Truss-braced wings (TBWs) feature higher aspect ratios with a lighter weight and lower bending moment than conventional wings. These wings show significant potential for performance improvements in terms of fuel efficiency.

Population Dynamics At High Reynolds Number [PDF]
We study the statistical properties of population dynamics evolving in a realistic two-dimensional compressible turbulent velocity field. We show that the interplay between turbulent dynamics and population growth and saturation leads to quasi-localization and a remarkable reduction in the carrying capacity. The statistical properties of the population

Design of a control system for a 1.5 m diameter coaxial rigid rotor model
As a key equipment for rotor wind tunnel testing, the design specifications and control accuracy of the rotor test bench directly determine the testing accuracy and effectiveness of the rotor wind tunnel testing.

Reynolds number calculation and applications for curved wall jets [PDF]
The current paper refers to the preliminary estimation of the Reynolds number for curved wall jets. This, in turn, can be a useful tool for controlling the boundary layer mesh size near a generic curved wall which is wetted by a thin, attached jet.
