PIV Study of Separated and Reattached Open Channel Flow Over Surface Mounted Blocks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A particle image velocimetry is used to study the mean and turbulent fields of separated and redeveloping flow over square, rectangular, and semicircular blocks fixed to the bottom wall of an ...
Characteristics of Shallow Turbulent Near Wakes at Low Reynolds Numbers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present study deals with the noninvasive measurement of both velocity and concentration in the near region of shallow turbulent wakes using a laser-Doppler anemometer and a video-imaging ...
Roughness Effects on the Mixing Properties in Open Channel Turbulent Boundary Layers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of surface roughness on the transport and mixing properties in turbulent boundary layers created in an open channel. The measurements were obtained on a ...
Open Channel Boundary Layer Relaxation Behind a Forward Facing Step at Low Reynolds Numbers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper reports laser-Doppler anemometer measurements of mean velocity and turbulence statistics upstream and downstream of a 3-mm forward facing step in a shallow open channel flow. The ...
Particle Image Velocimetry Study of Flow near Trashrack Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper provides results of an experimental study of turbulent flow near trashrack models that are comprised of an array of three rectangular bars. The bar thickness, bar depth, and center-to-center spacing were maintained ...
The Effects of Surface Roughness on the Mean Velocity Profile in a Turbulent Boundary Layer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental measurements of the mean velocity profile in a canonical turbulent boundary layer are obtained for four different surface roughness conditions, as well as a smooth wall, at moderate ...
Flow Characteristics beneath Ice Blocks with Smooth and Rough Undersurfaces
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Separating and reattaching flows beneath semisubmerged ice blocks with smooth and rough undersurfaces were systematically studied using a planar particle image velocimetry system. The examined Froude and Reynolds numbers ...
