Turbulence Characteristics of the Flexible Circular Cylinder Agitator

open access: yesFluids, 2021
A flexible protruding surface was employed as the flow disturbance to promote turbulence at the area of interest. An ultrasonic velocity profiler, UVP technique, was used to study the mean and fluctuating flow properties in the near wake of the rigid and

The 21 cm Signature of Shock Heated and Diffuse Cosmic String Wakes

open access: yes, 2012
The analysis of the 21 cm signature of cosmic string wakes is extended in several ways. First we consider the constraints on $G\mu$ from the absorption signal of shock heated wakes laid down much later than matter radiation equality.

Clocking In Turbines: Remarks On Physical Nature And Geometric Requirements

open access: yesPolish Maritime Research, 2015
The article discusses two issues relating to the clocking phenomenon in turbines, which are the physical course of stator wake deformation in rotor passages and its further interaction with downstream stator blades, and turbine geometry parameters which ...

Bio-inspired nano rotor investigation based on UVLM

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2019
Nano rotor is of great value in military and civilian applications. Due to its nano size, it works at an ultra-low Reynolds number and aerodynamic performance deteriorates dramatically.

The large-scale impact of anthropogenic mixing by offshore wind turbine foundations in the shallow North Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Structure drag from offshore wind turbines and its physical impacts on the marine environment of the German Bight are investigated in this study. The flow past vertical cylinders, such as wind turbine foundations, and associated turbulent mixing has long

A superelement-based method for computing unsteady three-dimensional potential flows in hydraulic turbomachines [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
A numerical method is presented for the computation of unsteady, three-dimensional potential flows in hydraulic pumps and turbines. The superelement method has been extended in order to eliminate slave degrees of freedom not only from the governing ...
