In this paper the flow behaviour over a number of car bodies is studied. For this purpose the unsteady 2-D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations have been applied. After averaging and nondimensionalizing the equations, the system of equations has been transformed from the Cartesian (x-y) coordinates to a body fitted generalized (-) coordinate. As the flow is incompressible, the density in the ...

commonly used environmental flow evaluation techniques range in complexity. some requires stream flow records alone, and some accounts for the habitat requirements of individual species life-stages and physical characteristics of the stream. hydrological based methods for environmental flow assessment are the first step in planning for environmental allocation in developing countries. for deter...

doppler ultrasound can provide important information about vascular problems through the analysis of blood flow wave-form. the purpose of this study was obtaining the normal images of color doppler and estimation of blood flow velocity parameters of femoral artery in rabbits. left and right femoral arteries of 8 healthy adult new zealand rabbits were evaluated. color and spectral doppler images...

steady hydromagnetic couette flow of class-ii of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium in a rotating system taking hall current into account is investigated. heat transfer characteristics of the fluid flow are considered taking viscous and joule dissipations into account. it is noticed that there exists flow separation at the moving plate in the sec...

One of the challenging problems in the Oil & Gas industry is accurate and reliable multiphase flow rate measurement in a three-phase flow. Application of methods with minimized uncertainty is required in the industry. Previous developed correlations for two-phase flow are complex and not capable of three-phase flow. Hence phase behavior identification in different conditions to designing and mo...

due to the complex structure of the pressure-adjusting device used in most sprinklersfor variable irrigation, it is not possible to observe the flow behavior of the water passingthrough the flow field. in this paper, an integral three dimensional (3d) numerical modelbased on the structural characteristics of the fluidic sprinkler was constructed to simulatethe flow field distribution using comp...

conventional passive distribution networks are changing to modern active distribution networks which are not radial. conventional load flow methods should be modified for new distribution networks analysis. in modern distribution networks distributed generation (dg) units are embedded with conventional and/or renewable resources. dg units are generally modeled as pv or pq nodes which inject ...

various scaling methods such as relative viscosity, peclet and reynolds scaling were used to find the best scaling law. scaling and modeling of the flow curves of various model emulsions consist of tragacanth gum (tg) (0.5, 1 % wt), oleic acid (5, 10% v/v) and wpi (2, 4 % wt) were investigated and the best models were selected. as these emulsions are non-newtonian, they do not obey the usual, si...

this paper presents a numerical study of local mass transfer coefficients in a 90° bend using the rng version of k–e model to include the influence of curvature on the turbulent transport. simulations were performed for flow through a 90°, 3-d bend for reynolds numbers of 13500, 90000, and 390000, schmidt numbers of 2.53 and 700 and curvature ratios of 1.5, 2, and 2.5. the differences between t...
