Abstract: In this study, the difference between laminar fast transient flow of shearthinning liquids and that of Newtonian liquids under similar conditions is numerically studied. Since the literature appears to lack fast transient ...

Abstract: Adding back vanes to the rear shroud of centrifugal pumps is sometimes practiced in order to alleviate large axial forces. Effective design and flow characteristics of back vanes remain obscure due to lack of knowledge ...

Abstract: Fluid starvation and congestion at the meshing area of external gear pumps (EGPs) happen inevitably as an intrinsic nature of these pumps. As a result, cavitation and excessive pressure pulsation are the two significant ...
