Abstract: A numerical study is made of the separated flow behind a flat plate. The plate is placed normal to the direction of the approach flow. The oncoming freestream velocity contains a pulsating ...

Abstract: An experimental study is made of two-dimensional uniform-shear flow (U = Uc + Gy) past a rotating cylinder of diameter D. A water-tunnel, equipped with a shear generator, was constructed. ...

Abstract: A “two-fluid” model has been applied to predict turbulent dilute gas-particle flow through a Venturi tube. Bulk motion of particles is considered as a secondary fluid flow which exchanges mass ...

Abstract: Extensive laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate the uniform-shear flow approaching a circular cylinder. The aim was to present the Strouhal number (St)- Reynolds number (Re) ...

Abstract: A “two-fluid model” has been incorporated with Lumley’s drag reduction model to analyze the mechanism of momentum transfer in the turbulent dilute gas-particle flow in a vertical pipe. The ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the flow dynamic behavior and pressure characteristics of a variable force solenoid (VFS) valve used in automatic transmissions. ...
