    Marsden, D. J.; Simpson, R. W.; Rainbird, W. J. (College of Aeronautics, 1958-02)
    A low speed investigation of the flow over a 40 degree apex angle delta wing with sharp leading edges had been made in order to ascertain details of the flow in the viscous region near the leading edge of the suction ...
  • Flow structure and heat transfer of jet impingement on a rib-roughened flat plate

    The jet impingement technique is an effective method to achieve a high heat transfer rate and is widely used in industry. Enhancing the heat transfer rate even minimally will improve the performance of many engineering ...
  • Flow studies at hypersonic speeds 
    Babinsky, Holger (1991)
    Approximate methods for calculating the surface pressures including the effects of viscous interactionare introduced for laminar and turbulent boundary layers. Experiments were performed with various models taking Schlieren ...
  • Flow through a very porous obstacle in a shallow channel 
    Creed, M. J.; Draper, S.; Nishino, Takafumi; Borthwick, A. G. L. (The Royal Society, 2017-04-26)
    A theoretical model, informed by numerical simulations based on the shallow water equations, is developed to predict the flow passing through and around a uniform porous obstacle in a shallow channel, where background ...
  • Flow velocity and sand loading effect on erosion–corrosion during liquid-solid impingement on mild steel 
    Parancheerivilakkathil, Muhammed S.; Parapurath, Shahid; Ainane, Sami; Yap, Yit Fatt; Rostron, Paul (MDPI, 2022-02-28)
    The presence of CO2, sand, and water in oil and gas reservoirs causes erosion–corrosion leading to material degradation in pipelines and fluid handling equipment that results in increasing maintenance and repair costs and ...
  • Flow visualization and particle dispersion measurements inside an ambulance rear saloon while stationary and in motion 
    Lawson, Nicholas J.; Blackburn, Kim; Sherwood, Glenn; Brighton, James; Atkinson, Helen V. (SAE International, 2022-04-07)
    The following paper presents flow field and particle dispersion data from a UK National Health Service (NHS) ambulance, under static and dynamic driving conditions and when using different ventilation modes. Data was ...
  • Fluid driven rotary atomiser for controlled droplet application of herbicides. 
    Craig, I. P. S. (1991-04)
    Handheld electrically driven spinning disc atomisers are capable of applying pesticides more efficiently than with hydraulic nozzles, because the narrower droplet spectra they produce leads to reduced drift and wastage ...
  • Fluid dynamic mechanisms of enhanced power generation by closely spaced vertical axis wind turbines 
    Zanforlin, Stefania; Nishino, Takafumi (Elsevier, 2016-08-18)
    We present a comprehensive set of two-dimensional (2D) unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) simulations of flow around a pair of counter-rotating vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs). The simulations are performed ...
  • Fluid flow analysis using the boundary element method 
    Carneiro, Helder Fernando De Franca Mendes (1993-05)
    An Attempt at development of theory and computer program for the solution of potential and viscous flow problems using the Boundary Element Methods is introduced in this work. A program for potential flow analysis of ...
  • Fluid flow and heat transfer around mechanical seals 
    Barnes, N. D. (1990-09)
    Mechanical seals are used extensively on rotary applications where the sealed fluid is under pressure. They may rightly be considered to be generally reliable and trouble free, many giving lives of over 3 years. However, ...
