Mean flow measurements taken in fully developed turbulent pipe flow over a wide Reynolds number range are used to evaluate current methods of correcting Pitot probe data. Based on this evaluation, a new form for the displacement correction is proposed which appears to be more accurate over a wider range of conditions than those currently available. The difficulty of obtaining the true near-wall...

Laminar fully developed ow and pressure drop in linearly varying cross -section converging-diverging microtubes have been is investigated in this work. These microtubes are formed from a series of converging-diverging modules. An analytical model is developed for frictional ow resistance assuming parabolic axial velocity pro le in diverging and converging sections. Frictional ow resistance is f...

The characteristics of fully-developed, laminar, pressure-driven, incompressible flow in rough circular microchannels are studied. A novel analytical model is developed that predicts the increase in pressure drop due to wall roughness in microtubes. The wall roughness is assumed to posses a Gaussian isotropic distribution. The present model is compared with experimental data, collected by other...

To obtain a higher heat transfer in the low Reynolds number flows, wavy channels are often employed in myriad engineering applications. In this study, the geometry of grooves shapes is parameterized by means of four angles. By changing these parameters new geometries are generated and numerical simulations are carried out for internal fully developed flow and heat transfer. Results are compared...

We use a simple model consisting of energy-momentum tensor conservation and Maxwell-Cattaneo equation for its viscous part to study nonlinear phenomena in real relativistic fluid. focus on new types behavior without nonrelativistic equivalents, such as an entropy cascade driven by fluctuations the degrees freedom theory. write down von K\'arm\'an--Howarth equations this kind turbulence consider...
