Abstract: Experiments were conducted in a steady flow test apparatus with an axisymmetric aortic shaped test chamber using hot-wire anemometry to obtain local momentum transfer and turbulence data in the ...

Abstract: Numerical solutions for the steady axisymmetric flow through a disk-type prosthetic heart valve were obtained for Reynolds numbers from 50 to 600. A nonuniform mesh in both directions was used ...

Abstract: Numerical solutions for the steady axisymmetric flow through a disk-type prosthetic heart valve were obtained for Reynolds numbers from 20 to 1300. Stream function, vorticity, and shear and ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the magnitude of shear stresses and areas of stasis of several types of prosthetic occluder heart valves. These experiments were performed ...

Abstract: The separated base flow region within a linear aerospike nozzle segment is investigated experimentally in an ejector-diffuser system. The nozzle-diffuser system and base pressure characteristics ...

Abstract: An experimental and theoretical investigation is presented which describes the character of the mean motion and the structure of turbulence for the separation, reattachment, and redevelopment of ...
