Flow separation at water intake is the main cause of head loss and flow discharge reduction. &#10As a result, study of shape and size of separation is very essential when designing an optimum water intake. Water intake is normally built with a 90 degree angle to the main channel flow direction. However, the flow structure in this type of water intake consists of large separation size along wit...

The drops are used to control the descents,  stabilize the bed level, and control the upstream water level in sloping channels with less slope than the ground slope. The current study presents a numerical analysis of hydraulic characteristics in the vertical drop using computational fluid dynamics. At first, the laboratory models were used for verification and choosing the best model of turbule...

The renormalization group (RNG) analysis of the Kosterlitz–Thouless (KT) phase transition is a basic paradigm in statistical physics and a well-known success of the RNG approach. It was recently shown that the derivation of the RNG parameter flow for the KT problem rests on the assumption of one-sided polarization, which is implausible and cannot be derived from first principles. We extend this...

The turbulent pulsatile blood flow through stenosed arteries considering the elastic property of the wall is investigated numerically. During the numerical model validation both standard k-ε model and RNG K-ε model are used. Compared with the RNG K-ε model, the standard K-ε model shows better agreement with previous experimental results and is better able to show the reverse flow region. Also, ...

We o er a set of public-domain tools to aid the development and test of pseudorandom Clanguage computer programs running under 4.3bsd Unix. Our tools make it easier to reproduce experimental results, to report them in a standardized format, and to check their validity by using a di erent random number generator (RNG). Furthermore, the tools should help users avoid some of the common pitfalls in...
