Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical Simulation of a Turbulent Lean, Premixed Combustion with an Explicit Algebraic Stress ModelWilliam Vicente, Martín Salinas-Vázquez, Eliseo Martínez, Alejandro RodríguezA computational model is used in the present paper to study the influence of the turbulence modeling on the chemical species in a turbulent lean premixed flame. The simulated configuration is about a lean, premixed bluff-body-stabilized flame with a recirculation zone. To achieve the objectives, three different models were used for turbulence modeling as listed next: 1) standard k-ε, 2) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,319 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Wing Tip Flow Around a Low Aspect Ratio Wing at Low Flight Speeds Using OpenFOAM® and Parallel ProcessingNikolaos Konstantinos Lampropoulos, Ioannis Eleftherios SarrisIn the present study, the effect of the wing tip geometry on the aerodynamic performance of a swept-back wing at moderate Reynolds numbers is investigated through numerical simulation and parallel processing. The aim is the identification of streamlines around the wing and subsequently the formation of the wing tip vortex. Due to the purely three-dimensional character of the flow, the … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2025 · 9,549 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractTurbulent-Fluid-Based Simulation of Dynamic Liquefaction Using Large Deformation Analysis of Solid PhaseRohollah TaslimianTo accurately simulate the cyclic liquefaction phenomenon, it is necessary to establish a well-defined coupling between the solid particles and the high-velocity percolating pore fluid. For this purpose, the existing literature extensively examines large deformation liquefaction analyses for the solid phase, regardless of the fluid flow nonlinearity. On the other hand, the transient fluid pressure gradient governed by the turbulence … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 22 Feb 2024 · 6,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel De-Oiling of Oil-WaterEmmanuel Ewa Ekeng, Jonah Chukwuemeka AgunwambaThe study anchors on developing a mechanistic model for oil-water separation. Over the years, researchers have been working on how to improve the quality of produced water effluent especially from oil and gas operations sent to the receiving waters. Despite the standard set for compliance by regulatory bodies like united nation agency, ministry, departments and other agencies both state and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 2 Sep 2020 · 6,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of Species-Transport Model in Numerical Simulation to Predict the Performance of Downdraft Gasifier with Biomass BlendsMurugan P. C., G. Arun Prasad, S. Joseph SekharThe demand for energy from biomass gasification is increasing due to the depletion of fossil fuels and serious environmental issues. Due to this, usage of individual biomass in a gasifier is not sufficient to meet the demand in rural areas. However, an enormous study have been reported on the gasifier with single biomass as working fuel. In addition, only a … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Sep 2019 · 7,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Assessment of Solar Chimneys: Part I – Impact of Chimney Height on Power OutputErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceSolar chimney is a truly sustainable and green energy technology, which is a potential alternative to carbon-based energy economy. The working principle of solar chimneys is based on the buoyant nature of air to turn a turbine that produces electrical power. Solar chimneys are highly in the centre of interest among all solar energy applications since they enable both day … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2019 · 8,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractON THE RELIABILITY OF REYNOLDS-AVERAGED NAVIER STOKES PREDICTION OF MEAN FLOW CHARACTERISTICS OF A RECTANGULAR TURBULENT JET IN CROSSFLOWE. Khali, Y. F. YaoA jet of fluid discharging into a cross stream, also known as Jet In Crossflow (JICF), has received many experimental and numerical investigations. In addition to the fundamental understanding of three-dimensional mixing and shear flow characteristics, the fluid dynamics research community often regarded it as a benchmark test case for validating turbulence models. Although many authors considered the canonical case … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2014 · 6,960 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling and Optimization of the Vortex Tube with Computational Fluid Dynamic AnalysisK.K. Zin, A. Hansske, F. ZieglerProblem statement: This study illustrated the influence of the Length to Diameter (L/D) on the fluid flow characteristics inside the counter-flow Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube predicted by Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) and validated through experiment. Approach: The swirl velocity, axial velocity, radial velocity component and also secondary circulation flow (back-flow) along with the pressure within the vortex tube were simulated and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Flutter Derivatives of Bridge Decks in Wind Tunnel Test by Stochastic Subspace IdentificationT. Janesupasaeree, V. BoonyapinyoProblem statement: Flutter derivatives are the essential parameters in the estimations of the flutter critical wind velocity and the responses of long-span cable supported bridges. These derivatives can be experimentally estimated from wind tunnel test results. Generally, wind tunnel test methods can be divided into free decay test and buffeting test. Compared with the free decay method, the buffeting test … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study of Near Wake Flow Behind a Rectangular CylinderAbdollah Shadaram, Mahdi Azimi Fard, Noorallah RostamyThe turbulence characteristics of the near wake flow behind a rectangular cylinder is investigated in a two-dimensional analysis using a hot-wire anemometer. The time-averaged and fluctuating components of the velocity are measured for a cylinder having various width-to-height (b h-1) ratios. The measurements are carried out in a low-speed wind tunnel. Data from hot-wire anemometer is collected by a data … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,274 accessesView PDFCite
