The energy equation for turbulent flow of fiber suspensions was derived in terms of second order correlation tensors. Fiber motion of turbulent energy including the correlation between pressure fluctuations and velocity fluctuations was discussed at two points of flow field, at which the correlation tensors were the functions of space coordinates, distance between two points, and time.

due to the complex structure of the pressure-adjusting device used in most sprinklersfor variable irrigation, it is not possible to observe the flow behavior of the water passingthrough the flow field. in this paper, an integral three dimensional (3d) numerical modelbased on the structural characteristics of the fluidic sprinkler was constructed to simulatethe flow field distribution using comp...

We analyzed the relationship between diastolic coronary artery pressure and flow in the canine coronary bed, using an electrical analog model of the coronary circulation based on the theory of critical closure. The model contains a voltage-dependent nonlinear resistance and capacitance. The behavior of the resistive element was described using experimental diastolic pressure-flow curves obtaine...

in this research, shock wave motion, shock/boundary layer interaction, and flow separation in a transonic flow over a naca0012 airfoil were investigated experimentally. thirteen kulite sensors were utilized for measurement of pressure fluctuations over the airfoil. experiments were performed for angles of attack between -4 to 4 degrees and flow mach numbers of m= 0.39 to 0.82. the kulite sensor...

in the present study the effect of curvature ratio and coil pitch for tio2/water nanofluid laminar flow on heat transfer behavior and pressure drop through helical coils with different geometries was investigated experimentally. the tio2/water nanofluids at 0.25% to 2% particle volume concentrations have been prepared by using a two-step method. the experiments were performed for coils with cur...

The aim of this paper is numerical and experimental study of the effects of flow hydraulics, pipe structure (particularly elastic behaviour) and submerged jet on leak behaviour. In this regard, experimental tests were performed on a high-pressure circulation set up. Experiments were performed on an old steel pipe and a High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe discharged to the atmosphere in a wide...

Cavitation and turbulence in a diesel injector nozzle has a great effect on the development and primary breakup of spray. However, the mechanism of the cavitation flow inside the nozzle and its influence on spray characteristics have not been clearly known yet because of the internal nozzle flow complexities. In this paper, a comprehensive numerical simulation is carried out to study the intern...

Potential flow over rotating cylinder is usually solved by the singularity method. However,in this paper a mathematical solution is presented for this problem by direct solution of the Laplace’sequation. Flow over the cylinder was considered non-viscous. Neumann and Dirichlet boundaryconditions were used on the solid surfaces and in the infinity, respectively. Because of non-viscous flow,the La...

Among the all parameters affecting the performance of a downhole de-oiling hydrocyclone, the investigation of internal flow field deserves more attempts especially in the petroleum industry. In this study, the effects of inlet flow rate, inlet oil volume fraction, and oil droplet diameter on the separation efficiency and pressure drop ratio have been investigated along the hydrocyclone body.
