During its near-ground hovering phase a Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft creates a complex three-dimensional flow field between jet streams, the airframe surface and the ground. A proper understanding and numerical prediction of this flow is important in the design of such aircraft. In this paper an experimental facility, used to gather validation data suitable for testing C...

in this paper, the fluid-structure interaction phenomenon and the research history are described. then due to the complex and specific working conditions of a turbine blade, we have investigated the phenomenon on this subject. the fluid-structure interaction on a turbine blade model has been simulated by using structural and fluid flow section of ansys software. a model of turbine blade with ai...

multiphase impeller stirred tank reactors enhance mixing of reacting species used in a variety of chemical industries. these reactors have been studied based on computational fluid dynamics (cfd) that can be used in the analysis, design and scale up of these reactors. most of the researches done in this area are limited to single phase reactors, and a few remaining two phase flow investigations...

The paper presents a mathematical model for an industry inspired problem of vibration isolation applied to a cluster of elastic fluid-filled containers. We develop a systematic approach employing full fluid-solid interaction and Floquet-Bloch waves in periodic multi-scale systems. The analytical findings are accompanied by numerical simulations, including frequency response analyses and computa...

a theoretical solution is presented for the forced convection heat transfer of a viscoelastic fluid obeying the giesekus constitutive equation in a concentric annulus under steady state, laminar, and purely tangential flow. a relative rotational motion exists between the inner and the outer cylinders, which induces the flow. a constant temperature was set in both cylinders, in this study. the f...

A series of atrium model tests were conducted to investigate the effectiveness of the smoke exhaust system in an atrium. The dimensions of the test compartment were 9 m × 6 m × 5.5 m height. The heat release rate ranged from 15 kW to 600 kW. The measured exhaust rate ranged from 1.94 to 5.13 kg/s. In this study, the experimental interface height between the smoke and cold layer is defined as th...
