Abstract: An experimental investigation was carried out to study the effects of single and multiple vortex generators (VGs) on the mean velocity, turbulence levels, and surface temperature distributions in a square channel. The flow ...

Abstract: Visualization of the flow structure generated by passive vortex generators continues to be a matter of research in the fluid mechanics and heat transfer communities. In this study, selfsustaining counterrotating vortex ...

Abstract: Laboratory experiments are performed to explore distinct features of the unsteady wake induced by a rigid plate undergoing a series of accelerated and decelerated phases in a quiescent water tank. Each plate motion pattern ...

Abstract: An experimental and numerical investigation was carried out to explore the effects of four vortex generators (VG) on the onset of flow instabilities, the paths and characteristics of the induced coherent counter-rotating ...
