Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Researches Examines the Wing Shapes to Reduce Vortex and WakeNicolae Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuIt is common to see clouds in the form of the sky, known as contrails, which are behind the engines of a reaction plan. What is not always visible is a wind whirl that comes out of the top of each wing - like two small horizontal tornadoes - leaving behind a turbulent awakening behind the vehicle. Awakening is a … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jun 2018 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation of Limonene-based Environmental-Friendly Emulsion Drilling MudOlaitan Oluwaseum Micheal, Orodu Oyinkepreye David, Ehinmowo Adegboyega BoluThe use of emulsion drilling mud in the oil and gas industry has gained wide acceptance. However, the disposal of drill cuttings and the waste of such emulsion drilling mud usually poses environmental concern. Hence, there is the need to seek oil from biodegradable sources as an alternative to the current conventional diesel oil which constitute environmental threat. In this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2017 · 7,926 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Investigation on Performance Improvement in Tube Inserted with Delta Winglets on Discrete Right-Angled Triangular PlatesAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiNumerical investigations on flow topology and heat transfer behavior in a round tube heat exchanger inserted with Delta Winglets (DW) on Discrete Right-angled Triangular Plates (DRTP) are performed. The influences of DW heights; b/D or BR = 0.05-0.25 and flow directions; DW with V-Downstream (DWVD) and DW with V-Upstream (DWVU), are studied for turbulent flow; Re = 3000-10,000. The finite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2017 · 7,054 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBehaviour of Rheology of Nanofluid During Convection in PipeGajanand Yadav, Subrata Kumar MajumderIn this article, the simulation of nanofluid flow in pipe and the behavior of different variables on nanofluid flow are presented. Al2O3-water of volume fraction of Al2O3 2 to 8% was considered as nanofluid for simulation. For the simulation the single phase approach is used to calculate viscosity, temperature difference on wall, Reynolds number, thermal conductivity and temperature throughout the … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2016 · 14,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUSE OF COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMIC TO PREDICT AIRFLOW AND TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION IN A RESIDENTIAL BUILDING WITH AN UNDER FLOOR AIR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMAbd Alnasser Almate A. Ali, Ahmed Cherif Megri, Paul A. Dellenback, Yao YuOur objective is to demonstrate the use of Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) in building applications. In particular, CFD has been used for temperature and airflow predictions of building spaces conditioned using Under Floor Air Distribution (UFAD) System. The space used is an instrumented laboratory room (old daycare center) located at the University of Wyoming. The use of the CFD simulation … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 11 Apr 2014 · 8,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAluminum Powder and Zwitrionic Surfactants as Drag Reducing Agents in Pipe LinesHayder A. Abdul Bari, Rosli Bin Mohd Yunus, Tania Suhail HadiProblem statement: One of the most power consuming sector in the industry is the liquid transportation through pipelines due to the turbulent mode the liquids are transported with. Drag reducing agents were used as a solution for the pumping power losses in pipelines. One of the inportant drag reducing agents suggested to improve the flow in pipelines are the suspended … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFull Model Wind Tunnel Study on the Xia-Zhang Bridge Under Operation StageAyad Thabit Saeed, Zhang Liang Liang, Yang Zhuan Yun et al.Problem statement: Long-span cable-stayed bridges under service and particular construction conditions are very susceptible to wind action due to their great flexibility, so the aerodynamic stability is becoming a major concern in the design and construction phrases. Cable-stayed bridges may exhibit wind-induced vibration phenomena such as flutter, buffeting and vortex oscillation under wind excitation. The study concentrated on the issues … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Size of Heated Obstruction within Room on Three Dimensional Air Flow CharacteristicsAbduljabbar Muttair Ahmed, Mukhtar Ahmad, Abdur RahimProblem statement: This study reported a numerical investigation of three-dimensional turbulent buoyant recirculating flow within a room with heated obstruction. Approach: The study involved the solution of partial differential equations for the conservation of mass, momentum, energy, concentration, turbulent energy and its dissipation rate. These equations were solved together with algebraic expressions for the turbulent viscosity and the heat diffusivity, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical and Analytical Study of Exhaust Gases Flow in Porous Media with Applications to Diesel Particulate FiltersSuleiman Abu-EinProblem statement: The importance of diesel particulate filter has been increased later because of its ability in making emission reduction of the exhaust gasses. Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) do two important jobs: gas emissions reduction and noise reduction, the pores spread inside the DPF store some gases and soot emissions and on the other side it prevents some sound or … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation Studies on A Cross Flow Plate Fin Heat ExchangerM. Thirumarimurugan, T. Kannadasan, E. RamasamyCompact heat exchangers which were initially developed for the aerospace industries in the 1940s have been considerably improved in the past few years. The main reasons for the good performance of compact heat exchangers are their special design which includes turbulent which in turn use high heat transfer coefficient and resists fouling, and maximum temperature driving force between the hot … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,241 accessesView PDFCite
