the developing turbulent flow in an open channel is a complex three-dimensional flow influenced by the secondary currents and free surface effects and is, therefore, not amenable to analytical solution. this paper aims to study the impact of three key hydraulic parameters (relative roughness, the froude number and the reynolds number) on the establishment length using computational fluid dynami...

translators are often recommended to highly observe the natural flow of the target language of the translated texts. the use and order of discoursal aspects of texts such as thematic information, topical elements, left-dislocation, and passive voice, among others, which constitute information structure may sometimes conflict with this viewpoint. it is argued that such discoursal elements are de...

hydraulics of stepped spillway is a very complicated phenomenon, as it consists of a two phase flow passing through a set of designed steps. the steps increase the rate of energy dissipation taking place on the spillway face. turbulence, flow aeration and energy dissipation are the main tasks in the design of such structures. this study consists of the experimental investigation to determine th...

background: numerical study of angulation effects of renal arteries on blood flow has been of great interest for many researchers. objective: this paper aims at numerically determining the angulation effects of stenosed renal arteries on blood flow velocity and renal mass flow. method: an anatomically realistic model of abdominal aorta and renal arteries is reconstructed from ct-scan images and...

Corrugated structured packings feature strong preferential flow directions due to their structure of crossing triangular channels. This leads to good radial spreading but makes modelling a challenge. Detailed CFD calculations reflecting the exact packing structure are only feasible for small sections of packing. However, effects like large scale maldistribution and instabilities in the flow fie...

in this study, the effects of strength and direction of the magnetic field on lid-driven cavity flow in the whole range of magnetic field strength variations, which already used in practice up to present (0 to 10 tesla), are studied. the governing equations, including conservative equations of momentum, continuity and magnetic field equations were solved numerically. momentum and continuity equ...
