Abstract: The two constituent phases of the nanofluids have thermal expansion coefficients that are significantly different. Moreover, the variability of the thermal expansion coefficients of fluids with ...

Abstract: Recent advances on the analytical form of the hydrodynamic force and heat/mass transfer from a particle, bubble, or drop are examined critically. Also some of the recent computational studies, ...

Abstract: The equation of motion of a small spherical particle moving in a fluid is solved numerically with the radius of the sphere and the ratio of fluid to particle densities being parameters. The ...

Abstract: This paper examines the turbulent flow of heavy particles in horizontal channels and pipes. Calculations for the fluid are performed within an Eulerian frame of reference, while the particulate ...

Abstract: A finite-difference scheme is used to solve the Navier-Stokes equations for the steady flow inside and outside viscous spheres in a fluid of different properties. Hence, the hydrodynamic force ...

Abstract: The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is used to simulate the particle resuspension process in a two-dimensional simple shear flow. At first, the lift force on a single disk-shaped particle attached at the channel wall is ...

Abstract: Particle collisions with the walls are very important in understanding the fluid-particle behavior near the walls and determining the boundary conditions of the particulate phases in two-fluid ...

Abstract: The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system has been widely used in the automotive and heavy-duty trucks to reduce NOx , SOx , and other controlled emissions. A liquid-cooled or air-cooled heat ...
