Although the hydraulic jump has been investigated experimentally for nearly two centuries, little information is known of the air-water flow properties in the shear region. New experiments were performed in a horizontal channel with partially-developed inflow conditions. Distributions of air concentration, mean air-water velocity and bubble frequency were recorded and presented herein. The resu...

These eddies are parameterized using a is made with...

Similarity solutions for laminar two-fluid jets and wakes are derived in the boundary-layer approximation. Planar and axisymmetric fan jets as well as classical and momentumless planar wakes are considered. The interface between the immiscible fluids is stabilized by the action of gravity, with the heavier fluid, taken to be a liquid, placed beneath the lighter fluid. Velocity profiles for the ...

The synoptic variability of a two-level quasigeostrophic flow in response to plausible changes in the forcing of a localized baroclinic jet is investigated in the context of the midwinter minimum of the Pacific storm track (MWM). The changes in the model forcing are introduced in terms of a reference potential vorticity field that is associated with plausible changes in the global baroclinicity...

BACKGROUND Mortality of seabirds due to anthropogenic causes, especially entrapment in fishing gear, is a matter of increasing international concern. This study aimed at characterising the gross pathology of seabirds that drowned in fishing nets and comparing it with that in other common causes of mortality. RESULTS Post-mortem examinations were performed on 103 common guillemots, 32 razorbil...

Designing and manufacturing the multiple jets simulator and experimental investigation of the multiple jets in crossflow at low velocity ratios have been studied Together with design and build a low-speed wind tunnel. A specific rake is used to determine the flow field pressure and changes in static pressure measured by pressure taps in the near field of the jets. There are generally three regi...

In this study, the missile staging process by implementing a side-injected jet is simulated numerically. The problem is considered to be axisymmetric and the thin shear layer approximation of Navier-Stokes equations along with an algebraic turbulence model is used in a quasi-static form for the calculations. The free stream corresponds to a very high altitude flight condition with a Mach number...

A 25-year-old male, a thinner abuser, swam in a pond just after thinner-sniffing and he drowned. Death from drowning was confirmed by diatoms in the lung and kidney. The drowning would seem to be induced by the effect of considerable high concentrations of toluene, absorbed into the body from thinner-sniffing, in tissues of the cadaver.
