Experimental investigations have shown that the enhancement in heat transfer coefficients for air flow in a channel roughened with low blockage (e/Dh < 0.1) angled ribs is on the average higher than that roughened with 90◦ ribs of the same geometry. Secondary flows generated by the angled ribs are believed to be responsible for these higher heat transfer coefficients. These secondary flows also...

The encounter between micro-aerial vehicles (MAVs) and gusts is often detrimental mitigating the effects of gust important for operating MAVs under severe environmental conditions. This study investigates impact vertical on stationary oscillating NACA0012 (National Advisory Committee Aeronautics) airfoils at low Reynolds numbers using high-order computational fluid dynamics methods, identifies ...

The Lattice Boltzmann Method algorithm is simplified by assuming constant numerical viscosity (the relaxation time fixed at $\tau=1$). This leads to the removal of distribution function from computer memory. To test solver Poiseuille and Driven Cavity flows are simulated analyzed. error solution decreases with grid size L as $L^{-2}$. Compared standard algorithm, presented formulation simpler s...

Flow-induced vibration is an enthralling phenomenon in the field of engineering. Numerous studies have been conducted on converting flow kinetic energy to electrical using fundamental. Wake-induced one configurations used optimise generation electricity. The results study effect gap between multiple bluff bodies will provide insight into optimising harvesting process. This focuses fluid behavio...
