Abstract: Two tubes in tandem and normal to flow were studied on the basis of the unsteady-flow theory. Motion-dependent fluid forces were measured in a water channel, and the pitch-to-diameter ratio ...

Abstract: This paper reports a numerical investigation of the transcritical droplet vaporization phenomena. The simulation is based on the time-dependent conservation equations for liquid and gas phases, ...

Abstract: This paper presents an unsteady-flow theory for flow-induced vibration of tubes in cross-flow. It includes a general description of motion-dependent fluid forces, characteristics of fluid-force ...

Abstract: A mathematical model based on the unsteady-flow theory is presented for wake-induced vibration of an elastic circular cylinder in the wake of another circular cylinder. Motion-dependent fluid forces were measured for six ...

Abstract: A tube array supported by baffle plates in cross-flow may be subjected to fluidelastic instability in the tube-support-plate-inactive mode. An experimental study is presented to characterize the ...

Abstract: The objective of this investigation was to characterize the high-pressure vaporization processes of engine fuels, which are too complex in composition to be described with conventional methods. ...

Abstract: Motion-dependent fluid forces acting on a tube array were measured as a function of excitation frequency, excitation amplitude, and flow velocity. Fluid-damping and fluid-stiffness coefficients ...

Abstract: A correction for the turbulence dissipation rate, based on nonequilibrium turbulence considerations from rapid distortion theory, has been derived and implemented in combination with the RNG k-ε ...
