Abstract The paper is dedicated to the experimental studies and numerical modeling of airflow in a 3D cylindrical bifurcation. computations are performed with standard k – ε turbulence model implemented ANSYS Fluid Flow (Fluent) code Workbench 2021R1. direct visualizations results corroborated, aim investigate evolution vortical structures distribution flow rate

The unstable flow with rotating-stall-like (RS) effects in a rotor-cascade of an axialcompressor was numerically investigated. The RS was captured with the reduction in mass flow rateand increasing of exit static pressure with respect to design operating condition of the single rotor.The oscillatory velocity traces during the stall propagation showed that the RS vortices repeatperiodically, and...

This paper is concerned with the transition to turbulence in flat plate boundary layers due to moderately high levels of free-stream turbulence. The turbulence is assumed to be generated by an (idealized) grid and matched asymptotic expansions are used to analyse the resulting flow over a finite thickness flat plate located in the downstream region. The characteristic Reynolds number Rλ based o...

Models of planetary, atmospheric and oceanic circulation involve eddy viscosity and eddy diffusivity, KM and KH , that account for unresolved turbulent mixing and diffusion. The most sophisticated turbulent closure models used today for geophysical applications belong in the family of the Reynolds stress models. These models are formulated for the physical space variables; they consider a hiera...

In this article, a Ranque–Hilsch Vortex Tube has been optimized utilizing axial angles for nozzles. Effect of nozzles angles on the flow behavior has been investigated by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques. A finite volume approach with the standard k–ε turbulence model has been used to carry out all the computations. The dimensions of studied vortex tubes are kept the same for all m...

In the present study, the conjugate turbulent free convection with the thermal surface radiation in a rectangular enclosure bounded by walls with different thermophysical characteristics in the presence of a local heater is numerically studied. The effects of surface emissivity and wall materials on the air flow and the heat transfer characteristics are the main focus of the present investigati...

Flow and dispersion of traffic pollutants in a generic urban neighborhood with avenue-trees were investigated with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). In Part I of this two-part contribution, quality assessment and assurance for CFD simulations in urban and vegetation configurations were addressed,before in Part II flow and dispersion in a generic urban neighborhood with multiple layouts of ave...

The analysis of impeller shape performance was carried out with the SST (Shear-Stress Transport) model coupled with the streamline curvature turbulence model. This model combines the advantages from the κ−ε and κ−ω models, ensuring proper relation between turbulent stress and turbulent kinetic energy and allowing accurate and robust prediction of the impeller blade flow separation. The Multiple...
