this paper describes a contra-rotating propeller (crp) system to calculate the hydrodynamic characteristics and then design the optimum operational condition to be installed on two different large bulk carriers and vlcc. the method is based on boundary element method (bem) to obtain the hydrodynamic performance of any complicated configuration such as crp system, and then the optimum propeller ...

We study the fundamental problem of spherical Couette flow (SCF) in the presence of heat and under the action of a gravitational field. The flow is considered as unsteady, axisymmetric and the fluid as viscous, incompressible and Newtonian. The numerical technique, which we use, is convergent and consistent and can be applied to 3D or 2D flow motions. We focus our attention to such aspect ratio...

background and aims: adenovector gene transfer induces inflammatory response that finally leads to vector removal from delivered site. the effect of hydrodynamic pre-injection on adenovector mediated liver inflammation remained elusive. materials and methods: different mice groups were pre-treated by hydrodynamic saline, dexamethasone or nothing prior to adeno-luciferase administration. their s...

In this work, three different particle sizes: the static radius Rs, hydrodynamic radius Rh and apparent hydrodynamic radius Rh,app obtained using the light scattering technique, are investigated for dilute poly-disperse homogenous spherical particles with a simple assumption that the hydrodynamic radius is in proportion to the static radius, when the Rayleigh-Gans-Debye approximation is valid. ...

In this paper, A numerical study has been conducted to predict the hydrodynamic characteristics of the staggered ribbed backward facing step flow with inclined impinging jet. The impinging jet flow was inclined towards the main cross flow and the angle of inclination is ranged from  30 to  90 . The ribs were in staggered arrangement and aligned after the slot jet in normal direction to the ma...
