چکیده

We report on measurements of energy spectra, second and higher order structure functions in bubbly turbulence. The void fraction is up to 2.9 % with an mean equivalent bubble size of 3-5 mm. We find the results of [I. Mazzitelli, D. Lohse, F. Toschi, Phys. Fluids, 15 L5 (2003)] qualitatively confirmed, i.e. a more pronounced energy enhancement on small scales than on large scales due to the presence of the bubbles, leading to a less steep slope in the spectrum as compared to the Kolmogorov -5/3 law.

Numerical Simulation of Separation Bubble on Elliptic Cylinders Using Three-equation k-? Turbulence Model

Occurrence of laminar separation bubbles on solid walls of an elliptic cylinder has been simulated using a recently developed transitional model for boundary layer flows. Computational method is based on the solution of the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and the eddy-viscosity concept. Transitional model tries to simulate streamwise fluctuations, induced by freestream turbulen...

The effect of microbubbles on developed turbulence

The motion and the action of microbubbles in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence are investigated through ~three-dimensional! direct numerical simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations and applying the Lagrangian approach to track the bubble trajectories. The forces acting on the bubbles are added mass, drag, lift, and gravity. The bubbles are found to accumulate in vortices, preferably on th...

Heat transfer enhancement due to air bubble injection into a horizontal double pipe heat exchanger

If an air flow is injected into a liquid fluid, many ambulant air bubbles are formed inside the fluid. Air bubbles move inside the liquid fluid because of the buoyancy force, and the mobility of these air bubbles makes sizable commixture and turbulence inside the fluid. This mechanism was employed to enhance the heat transfer rate of a horizontal double pipe heat exchanger in this paper. Howeve...

Hydrodynamic investigation of multiple rising bubbles using lattice Boltzmann method

Hydrodynamics of multiple rising bubbles as a fundamental two-phase phenomenon is studied numerically by lattice Boltzmann method and using Lee two-phase model. Lee model based on Cahn-Hilliard diffuse interface approach uses potential form of intermolecular forces and isotropic finite difference discretization. This approach is able to avoid parasitic currents and leads to a stable procedure t...

Stock Market Bubbles and Business Cycles: A DSGE Model for the Iranian Economy

T his paper investigates the movement between stock market bubbles and fluctuations in aggregate variables within a DSGE model for the Iranian economy. We apply a new Keynesian monetary framework with nominal rigidity in wages and prices based on the study by Ikeda (2013), which is developed with appropriate framework for the Iranian economy. We consider central bank behavior differe...

Numerical Solution for Gate Induced Vibration Due to Under Flow Cavitation

Among the many force s to which hydraulic structures are exposed to, the forces induced by cavitation incident are of typical hydrodynamic unknown forces. The aim of this study is to define these forces as coupled fluid-structure interaction under two dynamic effects. The first dynamic effect which incorporates facilities for dealing with cavitation fluid is based on the appearance and bursting...
