Abstract: In swirling turbulent flows, the structure of turbulence is nonhomogeneous and anisotropic and it has been observed that the assumptions leading to the formulation of the k-ε model, which is ...

Abstract: A theoretical model is developed for the prediction of the main flow pattern in hydrocyclones. The model regards the main body of the cyclone as inviscid and includes provisions for the fluid ...
