Effect of a Suction Upon Laminar Flow Along a Vertical Wall
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The laminar flow of a thin film past a vertical wall subjected to suction is studied. An approximate solution for small porosity is obtained in the accelerated region. A relation between film ...
Discontinuous Galerkin Method for 1D Shallow Water Flow in Nonrectangular and Nonprismatic Channels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A total variation diminishing Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for the solution of one-dimensional (1D) shallow water flow equations for natural channels is presented. The hydrostatic pressure force ...
Flow Field Upstream of an Orifice under Fixed Bed and Equilibrium Scour Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Flow behavior upstream of a circular orifice with the invert at the bed level (initially) is investigated under fixed bed and equilibrium scour (mobile bed) conditions. The experiments are performed under three different ...
Numerical Simulation of Equal and Opposing Subcritical Flow Junctions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study presents measured and computational results of a flow pattern at a junction with equal and opposing flows in the upstream channel that collide and turn
Investigation of Flow Upstream of Orifices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A physical model study is conducted to investigate the flow field upstream of orifices. In particular, new experimental data for the upstream flow pattern resulting from multiple orifices, an orifice near a free surface, ...
CFD Study of Merging Turbulent Plane Jets
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of two-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of merging turbulent plane jets were conducted to establish the point at which the jets can be regarded as having merged to form a single jet. ...
Impact of Freeway Geometric and Incident Characteristics on Incident Detection
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The potential improvement in incident detection can be achieved by examining the major factors that may influence incident rates and incident detection rates. The subsections of the central I-4 corridor were grouped by ...
Closure to “Investigation of Flow Upstream of Orifices” by D. B. Bryant, A. A. Khan, and N. M. Aziz
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Investigation of Flow through Orifices in Riser Pipes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study the discharge coefficient for circular orifices of different size in two different sizes of riser pipe is investigated experimentally. This type of outlet structure is common in detention ponds to achieve ...
Hydraulic Performance of Aggregate Beds with Perforated Pipe Underdrains Flowing Full
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Results are presented from an experimental study of the stage discharge relationship for a porous pipe buried under loose laid aggregate. A series of steady-state experiments were performed in which the depth of flow over ...
