Abstract: This paper analyzes the mixing of a tee diffuser discharging in shallow water with currents. Experiments are conducted for tee diffusers with different designs discharging in a crossflow. Measurements of dilution are ...

Abstract: Most cooling reservoirs in the U.S. employ a surface intake, but many could obtain improved performance (decreased intake temperature during summer) by using a submerged intake. Potential improvements were studied using ...

Abstract: A submerged, negatively buoyant radial jet, discharging horizontally beneath a free surface into water of initially uniform density, was studied experimentally and theoretically. The situation relates to the operation of ...

Abstract: An extensive set of velocity and temperature measurements has been collected on two side arms of Lake Anna, a cooling lake in Virginia. The data are consistent with the basic pattern of two layer exchange flow postulated ...

Abstract: This paper presents an optimization scheme to estimate the internal entrained fluid fluxes for multiphase plumes in stratification from indirect experimental measurements and applies the results to field-scale plumes. ...

Abstract: This paper presents direct measurements of multiphase plumes in stratification and correlates characteristic plume properties with the nondimensional slip velocity

Abstract: Laboratory experiments have been conducted to understand the behavior of negatively buoyant cylindrical particles of density

Abstract: 3-D numerical models are being used more commonly to predict changes in coastal water quality associated with point discharges such as sewage outfalls. Because these “far field” models use grid sizes which are orders of ...
