Abstract: A differential temperature controller is incorporated in a solar water heating system to study the influence of its set points on system performance. The effectiveness of the controller set ...

Abstract: The flow past a square cylinder at a Reynolds number of 20,000 has been simulated through direct calculations and through the calculations using turbulence model. The present investigation ...

Abstract: The wake of a square cylinder at zero angle of incidence oscillating inline with the incoming stream has been experimentally studied. Measurement data are reported for Reynolds numbers of 170 ...

Abstract: The force coefficients and the frequency of vortex shedding in the wake of a square cylinder exposed to a uniform shear flow and the flow structure around it were numerically investigated. The Reynolds number defined on ...

Abstract: The present study is a comparison of two- and three-dimensional models of flow past a square cylinder at a Reynolds number of 250. The models are computational in nature. The governing equations have been solved by the ...

Abstract: The unsteady wake of a long square cylinder has been numerically analyzed in the present study. Velocity signals at selected locations in the near-wake and the instantaneous forces on the cylinder have been recorded from ...

Abstract: Flow past a square cylinder placed at an angle to the incoming flow is experimentally investigated using particle image velocimetry, hot wire anemometry, and flow visualization. The Reynolds number based on cylinder size ...

Abstract: Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of incompressible, spatially developing circular jets at a moderate Reynolds number of 1030 is performed to understand the details of the evolution of the flow ...

Abstract: Experimental observations of dropwise condensation of water vapor on a chemically textured surface of glass and its detailed computer simulation are presented. Experiments are focused on the ...
