- Discussion: Slip-Flow Pressure Drop in Microchannels of General Cross SectionC. Y. Wang Partial slip occurs in a variety of important fluid flow situations. Recently several sources used the constant boundary slip assumption for the flow in a tube. By comparing with the exact solution for the slip flow in a triangular duct, we show the constant slip assumption invokes substantial error ... [J. Fluids Eng. 134, 055501 (2012)] publishe […]
- Development and Validation of a Reduced Critical Radius Model for Cryogenic CavitationShin-ichi Tsuda, Naoki Tani, and Nobuhiro Yamanishi Cryogenic fluids such as liquid hydrogen, liquid oxygen, and liquid methane have often been used as liquid rocket propellants, and it is well known that the suction performance of turbopump inducers is better in cryogenic fluids than it is in cold water due to the so-called thermodynamic effect. The ... [J. […]
- Effect of Ground Arrangements on Swirling Flow in a Rectangular Duct Subjected to Electrohydrodynamic EffectsSuwimon Saneewong Na Ayuttaya, Chainarong Chaktranond, Phadungsak Rattanadecho, and Thatchapong Kreewatcharin This study presents a numerical analysis of electric fields distribution, characteristics of swirling flow and effect of inlet velocity (u) from two ground arrangements, i.e., wire-to-wire (WW) and wire-to-plate (WP) in a rectangular duct subjected t […]
- Friction and Thermal Characteristics of Laminar Flow of Viscous Oil Through a Circular Tube Having Axial Corrugations and Fitted With Helical Screw-Tape InsertsSujoy Kumar Saha, Bikram Narayan Swain, and G. L. Dayanidhi The experimental friction factor and Nusselt number data for a laminar flow through a circular duct having axial corrugation and fitted with helical screw-tape inserts have been presented. Predictive friction factor and Nusselt number correlations have also been presented. The thermohydraulic perfor […]
- Inlet and Outlet Pressure-Drop Effects on the Determination of Permeability and Form Coefficient of a Porous MediumC. Naaktgeboren, P. S. Krueger, and J. L. Lage The determination of permeability K and form coefficient C, defined by the Hazen-Dupuit-Darcy (HDD) equation of flow through a porous medium, requires the measurement of the total pressure drop caused by the porous medium (i.e., inlet, core, and outlet) per unit of porous medium length. The inlet an ... [J. Flui […]
