Effect of initial tangential velocity distribution on the mean evolution of a swirling turbulent free jet [PDF]

open access: yes
An existing cold jet facility at NASA-Lewis was modified to produce swirling flows with controllable initial tangential velocity distribution. Distinctly different swirl velocity profiles were produced, and their effects on jet mixing characteristics ...

A numerical flow simulation of a mixed flow pump [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Mixed flow pumps are primarily axial flow pumps, but they impart some degree of radial and swirling momentum to the pump fluid as it passes through the rotor section.

Technical wildness: Modernity, romanticism, and the technocratic turn in Scottish rewilding

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Technical wildness is a new and increasingly influential culture of nature. This paper marks its emergence in Scotland in the early 2020s. Focusing on Scotland's rapidly evolving land management sector, the paper traces how private rewilding companies position science‐led land management and natural capital markets as the most effective ...

Development and Assessment of Fluorescent‐Dyed, Preserved Invasive Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) Eggs as Surrogates for Live Eggs in Transport and Dispersal Control Experiments

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Invasive species such as grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) pose substantial ecological threats to North American freshwater ecosystems. Understanding their early life stage behavior is critical for management efforts. From spawning to hatching, invasive carp eggs must remain suspended in the water column while drifting downstream for the ...

Numerical investigation on oil–water flow characteristics and construction optimization for novel wellbore lubrication fitting

open access: yesAIP Advances
Water-lubricated oil–water flow is an effective low-energy consumption method for pipeline transportation. This study proposes a novel wellbore lubrication fitting (WLF) for developing a core-swirling flow to reduce flow resistance and enhance ...

Turbulent Von Kármán Swirling Flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate the turbulent Von Karman flow generated by two counterrotating flat or bladed disks. Numerical predictions based on a Reynolds Stress Model (RSM) are compared to velocity measurements performed at CEA [2]. This flow is of practical importance in many industrial devices such as in gas-turbine aeroengines.

Ionogel Actuators: A Review

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Ionogels dynamically and functionally couple ionic liquids with polymer networks, enabling multiscale programmable deformation and motion under electrical, magnetic, optical, thermal, humidity, and chemical stimuli. This article systematically elucidates the constituent components, structural design, and multiscale actuation mechanisms of ionogel ...
