Pressure Drop of Fully-developed, Laminar Flow in Rough Microtubes
The characteristics of fully-developed, laminar, pressure-driven, incompressible flow in rough circular microchannels are studied. A novel analytical model is developed that predicts the increase in pressure drop due to wall roughness in microtubes. The wall roughness is assumed to posses a Gaussian isotropic distribution. The present model is compared with experimental data, collected by other...
متن کاملFriction factor correlations for laminar, transition and turbulent flow in smooth pipes
In this paper we derive an accurate composite friction factor vs. Reynolds number correlation formula for laminar, transition and turbulent flow in smooth pipes. The correlation is given as a rational fraction of rational fractions of power laws which is systematically generated by smoothly connecting linear splines in log-log coordinates with a logistic dose curve algorithm. This kind of corre...
متن کاملLaminar-turbulent transition process in pulsatile flow.
A controlled ex-vivo study of a simple, sinusoidally oscillating flow in a rigid, constant-area, smooth tube, has produced significant insight into the laminar-turbulent transition phenomenon. The development of turbulence was studied by analyzing the dynamic characteristics of the transition process; i.e., the velocity, growth rate, and intermittency which describe the generation and propagati...
متن کاملLaminar-to-turbulent transition in pulsatile flow through a stenosis.
Laminar-to-turbulent transition in pulsatile flow through a stenosis is studied by means of three-dimensional numerical simulations. The flow transition is associated with the occurrence of a flow instability initiating in the stenosis region. The instability is manifested by a three-dimensional symmetry-breaking and leads to asymmetric separation and intense swirling motion downstream of the s...
متن کاملRough-wall turbulent boundary layers with constant skin friction
A semi-empirical model is presented that describes the development of a fully developed turbulent boundary layer in the presence of surface roughness with length scale ks that varies with streamwise distance x. Interest is centred on flows for which all terms of the von Kármán integral relation, including the ratio of outer velocity to friction velocity U+ ∞ ≡ U∞/uτ , are streamwise constant. F...
