Abstract: Bubble dynamics is the most important subphenomenon, which basically affects the nucleate pool boiling heat transfer coefficient. Previous investigations state that the effect of physical properties ...

Abstract: AbstractSediment diversion to water and irrigation networks has always been one of the major problems in engineering projects. This article reviews the previous research on applying submerged vanes to specify the amount ...

Abstract: A spectral method for solving the steady flow of a shear-thinning Ellis fluid is discussed for the case of a planar channel with corrugated boundaries. Polynomial approximations are employed ...

Abstract: Friction factor plays a fundamental role in hydraulic analysis and design. In coarse-bed rivers friction factor depends on grain size and bed forms. Considering boundary-layer characteristics, this study first determines ...

Abstract: Vegetation on banks of natural channels exercises a significant influence on the flow structure and in turn on the velocity distribution as well as the distribution of Reynolds stress (the random turbulent fluctuations in ...

Abstract: Temperature index snowmelt models often require representation of a snowpack’s melt rate. Defining the melt rate as a function of an accumulated number of warming degree-days is achieved in some temperature index models ...
