The numerical simulation of the three-dimensional flow upwind of a vertical cylinder over a flat plate is achieved with a parallel LES code which is called DNSUTA Version III. The preliminary computational results with a coarse grid find that the flow structure is similar to experimental observations. The bow shock is very clear, and a separation shock is formed ( Λ -structure). Inside the sepa...

The cylinder (of radius a) and the plates of the capacitor (in the planes y = ±b) can move independently and without friction in the x-direction, where the z-axis is that of the cylinder. That axis can be electrically charged with the opposite sign to that of the cylinder such that the cylinder as a whole has zero charge. The (linear, isotropic) medium between the capacitor plates, including th...

A new implicit monotonized scheme of second-order accuracy and Newton's method for solving the grid equations approximated the Navier-Stokes equations were developed to simulate the two-dimensional hypersonic viscous flow about a plate located in the wakes of a cylinder. The strong influence of the geometrical factor of interference between a plate and a cylinder (characterized by the normalize...

A near-wall streaky structure has been identified in a turbulent boundary layer on a cylinder in axial flow. A platinum wire looped around a cylinder moving in a tank of quiescent water was used to generate hydrogen bubbles near the wall of the cylinder. The streaks that were visualized correspond to high-speed streaks identified by Kline et al. [J. Fluid Mech. 30, 741 (1967)]. The appearance, ...

An Alsynite cylinder trap and three different Williams cross-configuration traps with three adhesives were compared to determine their relative attraction to stable fly, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), adults. Williams traps coated with Olson Sticky Stuff performed as well as Williams traps coated with Tack Trap, thus allowing fly samples collected with either adhesive to be compared. The cylinder tr...

Safety analysis has been done for thick-walled circular cylinder under internal and external pressure using transition theory which is based on the concept of generalized principal Lebesgue strain measure. Results have been analyzed theoretically and discussed numerically. From the analysis, it can be concluded that circular cylinder made of functionally graded material is on the safer side of ...

It is well established that emissions and inefficiencies primarily arise from localised fuel rich regions, which do not undergo complete combustion. In order to achieve significant reductions in NOx soot, modern engines employ multiple injection flow rate profiling strategies. However, during the end of each event, needle restricts internal fuel, rapidly reducing inertia emerging spray. Atomisa...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of fine needle aspiration cytology in the diagnosis of abdominal and retroperitoneal masses in children on this study. In 53 cases of childhood abdominal and retroperitoneal masses within a 4 year period (1998- 2001) preoperative fine needle aspiration was done under the guide of CT scan. 2 pathologists reviewed fine needle aspiration smears. I...

This article presents the investigation on the vortex formation and shedding process behind a heated cylinder which is exposed to a cold cross flow. The Reynolds number is chosen to be 75 while the Grashof number is varied between 0 and 5000 (resulting in a variation from forced to mixed convection). The numerical results show that the addition of heat disturbs the vortex formation process. The...
