Turbulent diffusion of chemically reacting gaseous admixtures

open access: yes, 2014
We study turbulent diffusion of chemically reacting gaseous admixtures in a developed turbulence. In our previous study [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 80}, 69 (1998)] using a path-integral approach for a delta-correlated in time random velocity field, we ...

Modelling the dynamics of turbulent floods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Consider the dynamics of turbulent flow in rivers, estuaries and floods. Based on the widely used k-epsilon model for turbulence, we use the techniques of centre manifold theory to derive dynamical models for the evolution of the water depth and of ...

Turbulent thermal diffusion in a multi-fan turbulence generator with the imposed mean temperature gradient

open access: yes, 2006
We studied experimentally the effect of turbulent thermal diffusion in a multi-fan turbulence generator which produces a nearly homogeneous and isotropic flow with a small mean velocity. Using Particle Image Velocimetry and Image Processing techniques we

Sudden viscous dissipation of compressing turbulence

open access: yes, 2016
Compression of turbulent plasma can amplify the turbulent kinetic energy, if the compression is fast compared to the viscous dissipation time of the turbulent eddies.

Turbulence and fossil turbulence in oceans and lakes

open access: yesChinese Journal of Oceanology and Limnology, 2004
Turbulence is defined as an eddy-like state of fluid motion where the inertial-vortex forces of the eddies are larger than any of the other forces that tend to damp the eddies out. Energy cascades of irrotational flows from large scales to small are non-turbulent, even if they supply energy to turbulence. Turbulent flows are rotational and cascade from

Chemical turbulence equivalent to Nikolavskii turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2004
We find evidence that a certain class of reaction-diffusion systems can exhibit chemical turbulence equivalent to Nikolaevskii turbulence. The distinctive characteristic of this type of turbulence is that it results from the interaction of weakly stable long-wavelength modes and unstable short-wavelength modes.

Design and Evaluation of Face Mask Filtration: Mechanisms, Formulas, and Fluid Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The global adoption of face masks as a preventive measure against the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) has spurred extensive research into their filtration efficacy. This study begins by elucidating various mechanisms of particle penetration and

Erosion modeling in parallel gate valve [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2020
Gate valves, which are widely used in oil production and transportation processes, can be eroded by high fluid pressures and sand particles contained in crude oil during operation.

A Lagrangian-based flame index for the transported probability density function method

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2022
We propose a new flame index for the transported probability density function (PDF) method. The flame index uses mixing flux projections of Lagrangian particles on mixture fraction and progress variable directions as the metrics to identify the ...

Simulation of Turbulent Mixing Effects on Essential NOx–O3–Hydrocarbon Photochemistry in Convective Boundary Layer

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
The turbulence kinetics model (TKM) describes an overall reaction rate for microscopic mass transfer phenomenon expressed as separation intensity, Is, in a turbulent reacting flow.
