The authors predicted mudflow and debris flow velocities with 350 field and laboratory measurements and obtained a slight trend for V=u to increase with h=d50, and the ratio of V=u is approximately 10 and rarely exceeds 30. The logarithmic relationship of turbulent resistance agrees reasonably well with the measurements. Good results also are obtained with the Manning-Strickler approach. The di...

We examine the changes in kinetic energy dissipation of a turbulent channel flow caused by a spanwise magnetic field. The numerical study is based on our simulation data from [1] obtained by direct and large eddy simulations. We find that the Joule dissipation can exceed the viscous dissipation in the weakly dissipative bulk region, but remains comparatively small in the turbulence-generating n...

Turbulence and turbulent mixing in natural fluids begin with big bang turbulence powered by spinning combustible combinations of Planck particles and Planck antiparticles. Particle prograde accretions on a spinning pair release 42% of the particle rest mass energy to produce more fuel for turbulent combustion. Negative viscous stresses and negative turbulence stresses work against gravity, extr...

Efficient mixing strategies in a fluid involve generation of multi-scale flows which are strongly suppressed in highly viscous systems. In this work, we report a novel form of multi-scale flow, driven by an external electric field, in a highly viscous (η∼ 1 Pa s) oil-in-oil emulsion system consisting of micron-size droplets. This electro-hydrodynamic flow leads to dynamical organization at spat...

The tip-clearance flow in axial turbomachines is studied using large-eddy simulation with particular emphasis on understanding the underlying mechanisms for viscous losses in the end-wall region and the unsteady characteristics of the tipleakage vortical structures. Systematic and detailed analysis of the mean flow field and turbulence statistics has been made in a linear cascade with a moving ...

steady hydromagnetic couette flow of class-ii of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium in a rotating system taking hall current into account is investigated. heat transfer characteristics of the fluid flow are considered taking viscous and joule dissipations into account. it is noticed that there exists flow separation at the moving plate in the sec...

Energy equation for turbulent flow in a rotating system was derived in terms of second order correlation tensors, where the correlation tensors were functions of space coordinates, distance between two points and time. To reveal the relationship of turbulent energy between two points, one point was taken as origin of the coordinate system. Due to rotation, the Coriolis force played an important...

The explosive viscous liquid becomes inject to warhead by discharge system. The injection device is consisted of a piston to move down and leads the viscous fluid through the cylindrical pipe towards the end of the duct. Then the viscous fluid leads into a convergent path that will be injected to the warhead or other injection equipment. In this project, the path of viscous fluid flow is divide...

Supersonic turbulent motions are the remarkable properties of interstellar medium. Previous numerical simulations have demonstrated that the thermal instability in a shock-compressed layer produces the supersonic turbulent motion that does not decay. In this paper we focus on twoand three-dimensional numerical simulations of the non-linear development of simple thermal instability incorporating...
