A universal velocity profile for smooth wall pipe flow

Effect of Hydrophobic Surface on Velocity Profile of Pipe Flow

The branch of fluid mechanics is also familiar with biomechanics recently. The combination of hydrodynamic and mechanical specification of the flow can reach the complex description of the liquid flow in the hydraulic system. The hydraulic system can represent the airways and ventilation system, and external blood circulation. An important role in the study of hemo-transport has its interaction...

Turbulence Intensity and the Friction Factor for Smooth- and Rough-Wall Pipe Flow

Abstract: Turbulence intensity profiles are compared for smoothand rough-wall pipe flow measurements made in the Princeton Superpipe. The profile development in the transition from hydraulically smooth to fully rough flow displays a propagating sequence from the pipe wall towards the pipe axis. The scaling of turbulence intensity with Reynolds number shows that the smoothand rough-wall level de...

Wall corrections in modeling rotating pipe flow

Unsteady boundary layer flow of a Casson fluid past a wedge with wall slip velocity

In this paper an analysis is presented to understand the effect of non–Newtonian rheology, velocity slip at the boundary, thermal radiation, heat absorption/generation and first order chemical reaction on unsteady MHD mixed convective heat and mass transfer of Casson fluid past a wedge in the presence of a transverse magnetic field with variable electrical conductivity. The partial differential...

EXACT SOLUTIONS FOR FLOW OF A SISKO FLUID IN PIPE

By means of He's homotopy perturbation method (HPM) an approximate solution of velocity eld is derived for the ow in straight pipes of non-Newtonian uid obeying the Sisko model. The nonlinear equations governing the ow in pipe are for- mulated and analyzed, using homotopy perturbation method due to He. Furthermore, the obtained solutions for velocity eld is graphically sketched...
