In the present paper, a numerical method has been demonstrated which works on an overall NewtonRaphson type algorithm and is capable of solving the “inverse” problem for turbulent, fullydeveloped, pulsating pipe flows, where the mass flow rate, rather than the pressure gradient is prescribed as a periodic function of time. The momentum equation, governing the transient, fullydeveloped pulsating...

In the present study, an unlooped pulating heat pipe has been considered with two liquid slugs and three neighboirng vapor plugs.The governing equations such as momentum, energy and mass equations are solved explicitly except the energy equation of liquid slugs.The aim of the present study is to calculate the entropy generation through the performance of a pulsating heat pipe. Additionally, the...

In this paper, both linear and non-linear dynamics of a slender uniform pipe conveying pulsating fluid, which is axially moving in an incompressible are comprehensively studied. The vibration equations the system established by considering various factors, including coordinate conversion system, “axial added mass coefficient” describing additional inertia forces caused external Kelvin–Voigt vis...

GW Vir variables are the pulsating members in the spectroscopic class of the PG 1159 stars. In order to understand the characteristic differences between pulsating and non-pulsating PG1159 stars, we analyse FUSE spectra of eleven objects, of which six are pulsating, by means of state-of-the-art NLTE model atmospheres. The numerous metal lines in the FUV spectra of these stars allow a precise de...

The aim of this work is to introduce a novel 3-D model of pulsating vessels, through which the dynamic acoustic response of arterial regions can be predicted. Blood flow is numerically simulated by considering the fluid-dynamic displacements of the scatterers (erythrocytes), while a mechanical model calculates the wall displacement due to fluid pressure. The acoustic characteristics of each reg...
