Experimental and Numerical Study on Flow Control Using 3-Array Submerged Vane in Laboratory Channel Bend

Numerical Study Scour Pattern on Channel Bend Using Flow-3D Software

In nature, a direct route to the river is uncommon. Most rivers have channels that bend wherea complex scour pattern dominates. We have intended to study the behavior patterns necessary to scour a river known as the dominant bends. Numerical models are powerful instruments for the prediction of such areas and can provide a good understanding of these areas. In the present study we have used a t...

Experimental Investigation on the Deviated Sediment and Flow to Sediment Bypass Tunnels (SBTs) Using Submerged Plates

Sediment Bypass Tunnels (SBTs) are deviant channels that convey the current containing sediments from the upstream of the reservoir to the downstream of the dam. In this research, by applying submerged plates on the entrance of a 90-degree diversion channel for sediment transport, the effect of hydraulic parameters of flow and changes in the angle of plates on sediment transport and deviated fl...

Numerical Study of Reynolds Number Effects on Flow over a Wall-Mounted Cube in a Channel Using LES

Turbulent flow over wall-mounted cube in a channel was investigated numerically using Large Eddy Simulation. The Selective Structure Function model was used to determine eddy viscosity that appeared in the subgrid scale stress terms in momentum equations. Studies were carried out for the flows with Reynolds number ranging from 1000 to 40000. To evaluate the computational results, data was compa...

A numerical and experimental study on tubular channel angular pressing (TCAP) as a noble SPD method

The current study conducted a finite element (FE) and experimental investigation on tubular channel angular pressing as a noble severe plastic deformation technique for producing ultrafine grained and nanostructure tubular components. To examine the effects of the TCAP process on the strain distribution and deformation behavior, FE simulations were employed. The FE results demonstrated that equ...
