Flow Visualization of 3-D Flow Structure in Boiler Tube Bank by Oil-Lampblack Method

Flow Visualization Around a Non - Circular Tube

The flow behavior around a cam shaped tube in cross flow has been investigated experimentally using flow visualization and pressure distribution measurement. The range of attack angle and Reynolds number based on an equivalent circular diameter are within 0 ≤ α ≤ 360˚ and 2 x 104 < Reeq < 3.4 x 104, respectively. The pressure drag features are clarified in relation to the flow behavior around t...

the effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends

flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...

3-D Flow Visualization of a Turbulent Boundary Layer

The application of a novel technique for 3-D visualization of a zero-pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer is discussed. Measurements of a 1.65δ x 1.65δ x 1.65δ volume were taken at a flow speed of 96 ft/s, Reθ ~ 5900, and δ = 1.21 inches in a 2 ft x 2 ft open circuit wind tunnel. Many different mechanisms for flow seeding were explored in order to find the most suitable technique. Experim...
