The Reynolds Stress Model (RSM) is adopted to simulate the wind turbine wake and the simulation results are compared with the wind tunnel test data, simulation results from the standard k-ε model and a modified k-ε model. RSM shows good performance in predicting the turbine wakes velocity, turbulence intensity and the kinetic shear stress, while the k-ε based models fail to predict either wakes...

compressible gas flow inside a convergent-divergent nozzle and its exhaust plume atdifferent nozzle pressure ratios (npr) have been numerically studied with severalturbulence models. the numerical results reveal that, the sst k–ω model give the bestresults compared with other models in time and accuracy. the effect of changes in value ofdivergence half-angle (ε ) on the nozzle performance, thru...

These lectures describe CP violation and rare decays of K and B mesons and consist of ten chapters: i) Grand view of the field including CKM matrix and the unitarity triangle, ii) General aspects of the theoretical framework, iii) Particle-antiparticle mixing and CP violation, iv) Standard analysis of the unitarity triangle, v) The ratio ε/ε including most recent developments, vi) Rare decays K...

We study the following problem: given a real number k and integer d, what is the smallest ε such that any fractional (k+ε)-precoloring of vertices at pairwise distances at least d of a fractionally k-colorable graph can be extended to a fractional (k + ε)coloring of the whole graph? The exact values of ε were known for k ∈ {2} ∪ [3,∞) and any d. We determine the exact values of ε for k ∈ (2, 3)...

In this study, the numerical analysis of turbulent flow and heat transfer of double pulsating impinging jets on a flat surface has been investigated. The unsteady two-dimensional numerical solution for two similar and dissimilar jets was performed using the RNG k-ε model. The results showed that the RNG k-ε model has more satisfactory predictions of the Nusselt number distribution. Comparisons ...

The wind loads considerably influence lightweight spatial structures. An example of spatial structures is scallop domes that contain various configurations and forms and the wind impact on a scallop dome is more complex due to its additional curvature. In our work, the wind pressure coefficient (Cp ) on the scallop dome surface is studied numerically and experimentally. Firstly, the programming...

A (k, ε)-non-malleable extractor is a function nmExt : {0, 1}×{0, 1} → {0, 1} that takes two inputs, a weak source X ∼ {0, 1} of min-entropy k and an independent uniform seed s ∈ {0, 1}, and outputs a bit nmExt(X, s) that is ε-close to uniform, even given the seed s and the value nmExt(X, s′) for an adversarially chosen seed s′ 6= s. Dodis and Wichs (STOC 2009) showed the existence of (k, ε)-no...

We study the following problem: given a real number k and an integer d, what is the smallest ε such that any fractional (k+ε)-precoloring of vertices at pairwise distances at least d of a fractionally k-colorable graph can be extended to a fractional (k+ ε)coloring of the whole graph?

This paper proposes a data-driven turbulence model for predicting the mean flow in turbulent circular jets over wide range of Reynolds numbers (Re). The main formulation is adapted from well-known k–ε (where k kinetic energy, and ε dissipation rate) with set Re-dependent variation constants. Tam–Thies correction applied constants optimized using data assimilation based on ensemble Kalman filter...
