In this work, fluid dynamics of a turbulent round impinging jet has been studied using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and the results have been compared with experimental data from the literature. The fluid was water with density of 1000 kg/m 3 and the average velocity of the submerged jet was kept constant at 10.7 m/s while the liquid viscosity varied from 1 cP to 100 cP. Different turbule...

introduction jet stream is strong narrow current concentrated by strong vertical and lateral wind shears (vasantha et al, 2002). according to world meteorological organization nomenclature, jet stream formed when the speed of wind greater than 60 knots or 30 m/s. the major characteristics of the troposphere and lower stratosphere in the vicinity of jet streams were pointed out by a group of met...

In one popular account of the human visual system, two streams are distinguished, a ventral stream specialized for perception and a dorsal stream specialized for action. The skillful use of familiar tools, however, is likely to involve the cooperation of both streams. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we scanned individuals while they viewed short movies of familiar tools being grasp...

With the objective of contrasting performance between STREAMS and legacy approaches to system facilities, a comparison is made between the tested performance of the Linux Native Sockets UDP implementation and STREAMS TPI UDP and XTIoS UDP implementations using the Linux Fast-STREAMS package [? ].

The purpose of ventilation is to dilute or remove indoor contaminants that an occupant could be exposed to. It can be provided by mechanical or natural means. ASHRAE Standards including standards 62, 119, and 136 have all considered the contribution of infiltration in various ways, using methods and data from 20 years ago. The vast majority of homes in the United States and indeed the world are...

Groundwater-surface water (GW-SW) interaction lengthens hydraulic residence times, increases contact between solutes and biologically active surfaces, and often creates a gradient of redox conditions conducive to an array of biogeochemical processes. As such, the interaction of hydraulic patterns and biogeochemical activity is suspected to be an important determinant of elemental spiraling in s...

this paper seeks to emphasize the flow variability in the calnistea catchment by analyzing the local physiographic factors. the research has shown that the amount of precipitation that falls to the ground is low, the rocks in the region are soft, but highly permeable, gradients are gentle in most of the territory and vegetal cover is sparse and therefore cannot hold important amounts of water. ...
