Abstract: This work is concerned with turbulent diffusion in gas-particle flows. The cases studied correspond to dilute flows and small Stokes number, this implies that the mean velocity of the particles ...

Abstract: The steady cavitating flow through a converging-diverging nozzle is considered. A continuum model is assumed with the Rayleigh-Plesset equation to account for the bubble dynamics. A similar problem ...

Abstract: The behavior of air cavities formed in the tip vortex trailing from rectangular and elliptical planform hydrofoils has been examined both theoretically and experimentally. These cavities have ...

Abstract: An analytical model is presented to describe the collapse of an elongated bubble, which appears in the core of a cavitating vortex. The flow field is assumed to be irrotational, due to a ...
