the flow of fluids in annular conduits has been studied for over sixty years, however the resulted data are very scattered. in this paper the problem is analytically solved, starting out with navier-stokes equations. a computer solution is used to determine the shape of velocity profiles, the discharge and the friction factor in a large number of concentric and eccentric annular conduits. the e...

The two-fluid flow is produced by the combined effects of electroosmotic force in a conducting liquid and pressure gradient force in a non-conducting liquid. The Poisson-Boltzmann and Navier-Stokes equations are solved analytically; and the effects of governing parameters are examined. Poiseuille number increases with increasing the parameters involved. In the absence of pressure gradient, the ...

Tip leakage loss introduces major part of losses of the rotor in axial gas turbines. Therefore, the rotor blade tip has a considerable effect on rotor efficiency. To understand the flow physics of the rotor tip leakage, we solve the flow field for different tip platforms (passive flow control) and by considering coolant tip injection (active flow control). Various blade tip configurations s...

When depth of flow past a river bridge exceeds opening under the bridge, the flow under the bridge becomes pressurized. The water is directed downward and under the bridge deck, causing increase in velocity and shear stress on the bed thereby increasing bed scour. This is termed as Pressure Flow Scour. The present study investigates the phenomenon of pressure flow scour resulting from a submerg...

in the maximum flow network interdiction problem, an attacker attempts to minimize the maximum flow by interdicting flow on the arcs of network. in this paper, our focus is on the nodal interdiction for network instead of the arc interdiction. two path inequalities for the node-only interdiction problem are represented. it has been proved that the integrality gap of relaxation of the maximum fl...
