in this study, the dispersion mechanisms of aerosols suspended in a turbulent plane channel flow is investigated using a novel numerical approach. a turbulent channel flow is simulated by a direct numerical simulation (dns) method, for which no-slip boundary conditions are assumed at the top and bottom walls, while periodicity conditions are applied on the other sides. dns, in particular, allow...

Energy equation for turbulent flow in a rotating system was derived in terms of second order correlation tensors, where the correlation tensors were functions of space coordinates, distance between two points and time. To reveal the relationship of turbulent energy between two points, one point was taken as origin of the coordinate system. Due to rotation, the Coriolis force played an important...

Turbulence structure on the gas side of a wavy stratified flow was experimentally investigated in a near horizontal 18.7 cm (H) 10 cm (W) 5.5m (L) rectangular duct.By applying the Variable Interval Time Averaging (VITA) technique to the hot wire anemometer measurements frequency of occurrence of turbulent events were detected near the air-water interface. Experimental results showed that fr...

Improvements in micro-fabrication techniques are enabling Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems to be constructed with sub-micron feature sizes. At this scale, even at standard atmospheric conditions, the flow is in the transition regime. This paper considers the range 0.1 < Kn < 1, where non-equilibrium effects can be appreciable, and specifically illustrates problems involving non-planar surfaces ...

Prior to the 2001 CMER pilot study, several TFW cooperators conducted independent field studies of the distribution of perennial and seasonal headwater streams (Table 1). All of the studies were conducted during the summer low flow seasons of 1998 or 2000, in part, to evaluate proposed regulatory guidelines that differentiate non-fish-bearing headwater streams on the basis of the seasonal flow ...
