an optimal design and fabrication of compressors requires flow investigation through the compressor components. flow field inside the volute is fully three dimensional and turbulent. better understanding of flow mechanism leads to improve the volute design procedure. in this research the experimental and numerical flow investigation through a radial flow compressor volute are performed to recog...

due to high applicability of the fixed bed catalytic naphtha reforming reactors, hydrodynamic features of this kind of reactors with radial flow pattern are improved in this work by utilising computational fluid dynamics technique. effects of catalytic bed porosity, inlet flow rate and flow regime through the bed on the flow distribution within the system are investigated.it is found that the f...

We consider magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows in a conducting rectangular duct with a non-conducting flow channel insert (FCI) in a constant transverse magnetic field. The computations based on the fully developed flow model are performed for three FCI modifications: (i) without pressure equalization openings, (ii) with the pressure equalization slot (PES) in the FCI wall parallel and (iii) perpe...

First and foremost, production analysis techniques require accurate rate and bottomhole pressure histories. In most cases the pressure history of the well is not measured directly at the bottomhole condition, but is calculated from surface measurements by the use of single or multiphase flow correlations. In some cases significant error is introduced through the use of these correlations. This ...

water scarcity is today’s world biggest challenge which requires different countries to manage their water resources in the most efficient way. sprinkler irrigation increases water consumption efficiency due to more uniform distribution of water across the field. precision farming is based on the site-specific use of inputs according to soil characteristics and plant needs. one of the main inpu...

The airflow in the modeled glottal constriction was simulated by the solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for laminar flow, and the corresponding Reynolds equations for turbulent flow in generalized, nonorthogonal coordinates using a numerical method. A two-dimensional model of laryngeal flow is considered and aerodynamic properties are calculated for both laminar and turbulent steady flows...

An effective two-dimensional micromixer named rectangle-square wave micromixer with very simple structure has been presented. The rectangle-square wave micromixer based on split and recombination principle was simulated to analyze the fluid flow and the mixing efficiency. The flow rate, sample concentration, pressure drop at different position in the micromixer was researched. The simulation re...
