Experimental Studies on Swirling Flow in a Vertical Circular Tube
Swirling flows are related to the spiral motion in the tangential direction in addition to the axial and radial direction using several swirl generators. These type of flows are used in combustion chambers to improve flame stability, heat exchanger to enhance heat transfer coefficients, agricultural spraying machines and some vertical pipes to move slurries or transport of materials. However, o...
متن کاملStability of flow through a slowly diverging pipe
Although the critical Reynolds number for linear instability of the laminar flow in a straight pipe is infinite, we show that it is finite for a divergent pipe, and approaches infinity as the inverse of the divergence angle. The velocity profile at the threshold of inviscid stability is obtained. A non-parallel analysis yields linear instability at surprisingly low Reynolds numbers, of about 15...
متن کاملStreak breakdown instability in pipe Poiseuille flow
This work is devoted to the study of the stability of Hagen–Poiseuille flow or pipe flow. The analysis is focused on the streak breakdown process by which two-dimensional streamwise-independent finite amplitude perturbations transiently modulate the basic flow leading to a profile that contains saddle points and is linearly unstable with respect to very small streamwise-dependent perturbations....
متن کاملAxisymmetric vortex breakdown Part 1. Confined swirling flow
A comparison between the experimental visualization and numerical simulations of the occurrence of vortex breakdown in laminar swirling flows produced by a rotating endwall is presented. The experimental visualizations of Escudier (1984) were the first to detect the presence of multiple recirculation zones and the numerical model presented here, consisting of a numerical solution of the unstead...
متن کاملEntropy Generation in Laminar Fluid Flow through a Circular Pipe
A numerical solution to the entropy generation in a circular pipe is made. Radial and axial variations are considered. Navier-Stokes equations in cylindrical coordinates are used to solve the velocity and temperature fields. Uniform wall heat flux is considered as the thermal boundary condition. The distribution of the entropy generation rate is investigated throughout the volume of the fluid a...
