Effect of Corrugated Bed on Hydraulic Jump Characteristic Using SPH Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A hydraulic jump is a common phenomenon that can be observed in open channel flows such as rivers and spillways. It can cause damage of the downstream bed and bank of the channel due to the process of continuous erosion ...
Numerical Investigation of Baffle-Plate Effect on Hood-Capture Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To protect laborers in a working environment containing toxic vapor, particles and contaminants, an efficient ventilation facility is essential. A well-designed industrial ventilation facility should ...
Numerical Investigation of a Pitching NACA 0012 Wing with Plasma-Based Flow Control Using Prediction–Correction Direct-Forcing Immersed Boundary Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Dynamic stall is a nonlinear fluid phenomenon. It is caused by the vortex generation and motion of the leading edge of the wing. When the angle of attack (AOA) changes rapidly, it causes the vortex to delay and shed. ...
Control of Volumetric Flow-Rate of Ball Valve Using V-Port
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The control of volume flow rate in a ball valve is very important when a ball valve is utilized in a piping system. It is difficult to linearly control the flow rate in a ball valve ...
Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine Blade-Shape Optimization Using a Genetic Algorithm and Direct-Forcing Immersed Boundary Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The aim of this study was to prove that an optimization method combining genetic algorithms with a direct-forcing immersed boundary method as a distinguished numerical method could improve the performance of vertical-axis ...
Numerical Study on Cavitation Occurrence in Globe Valve
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cavitation in a valve leads to trouble and inconvenience for factories. Valves in a piping system are ruined, leading to costly replacements every several months. To reduce the cost caused by cavitation in a valve, a cage ...
Computational Study on the Effect of Inlet Port Configuration on In-Cylinder Flow of a Motored Four-Valve Internal Combustion Engine
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A numerical simulation is carried out to investigate the effect of inlet port cross-section geometry on the in-cylinder flow of a motored four-valve, single-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine during the intake ...
