Abstract: Vortex separators are increasingly utilized to remove suspended solids from stormwater runoff. Understanding flow patterns in a confined vortex chamber is crucial when investigating the mechanisms of liquid-solid separation. ...

Abstract: The fix-grid method of characteristic (MOC) has been the main numerical scheme for modeling the transient pipe flows with an entrapped air pocket, where the Courant number Cr usually equals one (i.e., Cr=1) to ensure ...

Abstract: An approach combining the Brunone unsteady friction model and first- and second-order Godunov-type scheme (GTS) is developed to simulate transient pipe flow. The exact solution to the Riemann problem calculates the mass ...
