analysis of non-laminar flows in coarse alluvial beds has a wide range of applications in various civil engineering, oil and gas, and geology problems. darcy equation is not valid to analyze transient and turbulent flows, so non-linear equations should be applied. non-linear equations are classified into power and binomial equations. binomial equation is more accurate in a wide range of velocit...

investigating nozzle’s orifice flow is challenging both experimentally and theoretically. this paper focuses on simulating flow inside diesel injector nozzle via ansys fluent v15. validation is performed with experimental results from winkhofler et al (2001). several important parameters such as mass flow rate, velocity profiles and pressure profiles are used for this validation. results includ...

in this paper the heating process in a box annealing unit is simulated and the effect of various parameters involved in the process is examined. for this purpose, the full naiver-stokes equations along with the standard k- turbulence model are solved in the fluid region using the finite volume approach. in the solid area the conduction heat transfer equation is employed using approporate surfac...

â understanding the flow behaviour in a gas well is crucial for future production strategies, obtaining bottomhole conditions from wellhead production data, analyzing production data and estimating reservoir properties. in this work, the pressure profile and flow regime are studied on four wells of a multi-well, multi-layer gas-condensate reservoir, producing at high rate. the wells are deviate...

in this study, a three–layer artificial neural network (ann) model was developed to predict the pressure gradient in horizontal liquid–liquid separated flow. a total of 455 data points were collected from 13 data sources to develop the ann model. superficial velocities, viscosity ratio and density ratio of oil to water, and roughness and inner diameter of pipe were used as input parameters of t...

designing and optimization of the intake manifold is one of the important steps in the development of the internal combustion engines. in this paper, the flow inside the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine is investigated by numerical modeling. the convective flux models are adopted to simulate the unsteady compressible flow behavior. to solve the governing equations, for calculati...
