Abstract: This paper presents the results of an empirical study undertaken to assess the appropriateness and applicability of a simple, analytical model of pump-piping system flow instability. The analysis ...

Abstract: Experiments are reported concerning turbulent separated flow downstream of a backward-facing step in a two-dimensional channel that was rotated at a steady rate about a spanwise axis. Reattachment ...

Abstract: Experiments with incompressible flow are reported concerning the effects of Coriolis acceleration on flow separation and on separated flow in plane-wall diffusers of rectangular cross section. The ...
