Abstract: Turbulent Taylor-Couette flow in an annulus formed by two concentric cylinders with dead end walls was investigated with Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV). The test apparatus was designed to provide ...

Abstract: Experimental measurements were carried out in an incompressible three-dimensional turbulent shear layer in the vicinity of an appendage mounted perpendicular to a flat plate. The thickness of the ...

Abstract: Experimental and computational methods were used to study the structure and behavior of the shedded vortices around a V-ball valve. Strouhal frequency for shedded vortices around the valve over ...
