Abstract: Experimental observations were made for the nominally fully developed flow through a helically coiled pipe of circular cross-section with a curvature radius to pipe radius ratio Rc /a = 18.2. ...

Abstract: Visualization observations are reported for the time evolving vortex structure at the interface of a counter-current channel flow. The results are primarily qualitative in nature, but show clearly ...

Abstract: The two-dimensional wall-driven flow in an enclosure has been a numerical paradigm of long-standing interest and value to the fluid mechanics community. In this paradigm the enclosure is infinitely ...

Abstract: Time-resolved laser-Doppler velocimeter measurements of the circumferential velocity component were obtained for the flow between the center pair of four disks of common radius R2 corotating at ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation has been carried out in a curved duct of rectangular cross section in order to study the development of flow instability in such geometries. Hot wire anemometry ...

Abstract: Time-resolved measurements of the circumferential velocity component were obtained with a laser-Doppler velocimeter in the space between the center pair of four disks corotating in air in an ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation has been performed for the ventilated flow of air in the unobstructed space between the center pair of four disks corotating in a fixed cylindrical enclosure. This ...

Abstract: The characteristics of the flow around a bluff body of square cross-section in contact with a solid-wall boundary are investigated numerically using a finite difference procedure. Previous studies ...
