The alternating current electroosmotic flow of a non-Newtonian power-law fluid is studied in a circular microchannel. A numerical method is employed to solve the non-linear Poisson-Boltzmann and the momentum equations. The main parameters which affect the flow field are the flow behavior index, the dimensionless zeta potential and the dimensionless frequency. At very low dimensionless frequenci...

In the framework of the Gas-Power Conversion System for the Advanced Sodium Technological Reactor for Industrial Demonstration (ASTRID) project design, works done at CEA are focused on the design of the sodium-gas heat exchanger. Compact plate heat exchangers are indicated as the most suitable technology for such applications. An innovative compact heat exchanger geometry is proposed in this pa...

Nowadays, developed and applied hydrology become very important thing in the life due to the wide verity advantages for the applications of this field. Hydraulic Structures such as crump weir are placed in channels to estimate or measure flow rate and flow control devices. In this study there is a new performance for crump weir which appears by adding opening holes in the model  of crump weir. ...

The paper presents the research of flow instabilities in inlet part a centrifugal compressor channel equipped with radial guide vanes. A simplified model is created and for that, dimensional analysis carried out. Methods computational fluid dynamics (CFO) are employed parametric study, which gives basic information about influence dimensionless parameters to field. Reconstruction comprehensive ...

The motion of an individual particle in a circular channel flow induced with fluid injection is considered. Analysis takes into account drag and gravitational forces acting on particle. change the radial structure studied. A number simplifying assumptions about fluidflow makes it possible to obtain analytical solution problem for particles. results qualitative analysis trajectories are compared...

A canonical flow geometry was utilized for a fundamental study of the coupling between bulk flow and a Newtonian gas-liquid interface in the presence of an insoluble surfactant. We develop a Navier-Stokes numerical model of the flow in the deep-channel surface viscometer geometry, which consists of stationary inner and outer cylinders, a floor rotating at a constant angular velocity, and an int...
