This study experimentally and numerically investigated the hydrodynamic characteristics of a 180° curved open channel over rough bed under condition constant downstream water depth. Three different sizes particles (the small, middle big cases based upon grain size diameter D50) were selected for flume tests. Three-dimensional instantaneous velocities obtained by acoustic Doppler velocimeter (AD...

objective(s):iron oxide nanoparticles have found prevalent applications in various fields including drug delivery, cell separation and as contrast agents. super paramagnetic iron oxide (spio) nanoparticles allow researchers and clinicians to enhance the tissue contrast of an area of interest by increasing the relaxation rate of water. in this study, we evaluate the dependency of hydrodynamic si...

this paper addresses an experimental investigation in the hydrodynamic behavior of a modified slotted sieve tray. slotted sieve tray (push valve sieve tray) is a sieve tray that the push valves have been utilized on the tray deck to eliminate liquid gradients and non-uniformity of liquid distribution on the tray. the air-water system was used in an industrial scale experimental rig with an inte...

A Lattice Boltzmann method is applied to demonstrate the comparison results of simulating natural convection in an open end cavity using different hydrodynamic and thermal boundary conditions. The Prandtl number in the present simulation is 0.71, Rayleigh numbers are 104,105 and 106 and viscosities are selected 0.02 and 0.05. On-Grid bounce-back method with first-order accuracy and non-slip met...
