Abstract: The characteristics of water waves produced by flowing air in closed channels were studied to uncover the effects of surface pressure variation. From theoretical considerations, it is proposed ...

Abstract: In the previous paper on this subject it was found that the oil-water interface at the retention boom becomes unstable under certain conditions permitting an oil escape under the boom. In the ...

Abstract: The interfacial shear stress for air flowing over a wavy water surface was determined experimentally in a closed horizontal channel by measuring the pressure drop and the structure of the water ...

Abstract: This paper describes a submersible pressure probe, which permits the measurement of the pressure near the surface of a water wave, even in the regions below the crest. The probe is based on ...

Abstract: It has been observed that, under certain conditions, the oil retained by planar boom will escape under it. In this work it is proposed that this escape is due to the instability of the ...

Abstract: The effect of the wind on the distribution of an oil layer on wavy water has been examined analytically and the results are compared with experimental values. It is found that the wind tends ...

Abstract: Over the last twenty years a number of papers have appeared in literature concerning the transition to slug flow in horizontal two-phase flow. The theories proposed in these papers are described, ...
