Abstract: The flow through turbopumps is characterized by highly unsteady phenomena at part load conditions, involving large separation and generation of vortical structures. This behavior is strongly dependent on the interaction ...

Abstract: Turbopumps operating at reduced flow rates experience significant separation and backflow phenomena. Although ReynoldsAveraged Navier–Stokes (RANS) approaches proved to be usually able to capture the main flow features ...

Abstract: In this paper, we found, by means of numerical simulations, a transition in the oscillatory character of the flow field for a particular combination of buoyancy and spacing in an array of six circular cylinders at a Reynolds ...
