We present a simple model for the development of shear layers between parallel flows in confining channels. Such flows are important across a wide range of topics from diffusers, nozzles and ducts to urban air flow and geophysical fluid…
In this work, the laminar decaying inlet swirl flow in a straight micro-pipe with wall slip is solved analytically and the solution verified numerically. Based on a fully developed parabolic axial velocity profiles, the swirl velocity…
The flow of a viscous fluid along a curving pipe of fixed radius is driven by a pressure gradient. For a generally curving pipe it is the fluid flux which is constant along the pipe and so I correct fluid flow solutions of Dean (1928) and…
This work presents an analytical investigation of the hydrodynamic entrance region in laminar flows through slender converging pipes. Extending previous analyses for straight pipes, the model radially divides the flow into a viscous wall…
A model for the development of turbulent shear flows, created by non-uniform parallel flows in a confining channel, is used to identify the diffuser shape that maximises pressure recovery when the inflow is non-uniform. Wide diffuser angles…
This study provides exact analytical solutions for both steady-state and pulsatile annular flows in coaxial cylindrical systems. It also examines the effects of a synchronized inner tube high velocity jet and its potential impact on annular…
We study the flow of a shear-thinning, chemically-reacting fluid that could be used to model the flow of the synovial fluid. The actual geometry where the flow of the synovial fluid takes place is very complicated, and therefore the…
We numerically investigate the effect of entrance condition on the spatial and temporal evolution of multiple three-dimensional vortex pairs and wall shear stress distribution in a curved artery model. We perform this study using a…
A plane turbulent mixing in a shear flow of an ideal homogeneous fluid confined between two relatively close rigid walls is considered. The character of the flow is determined by interaction of vortices arising at the nonlinear stage of the…
Motivated by the desire to understand the rich dynamics of precessionally driven flow in the liquid planetary core, we investigate, through numerical simulations, the precessing fluid motion in a rotating cylindrical annulus which possesses…
Stress transmission in realistic granular media often occurs under external load and in the presence of boundary slip. We investigate shear localization in a split-bottom Couette cell with smooth walls subject to a confining pressure…
The objective of this computational study is to quantify the influence of wall-normal and angular momentum injections in suppressing laminar flow separation over a canonical airfoil. Open-loop control of fully separated, incompressible flow…
Swirling flows in conical pipe can be found in a number of industrial processes, such as hydrocylone, separator and rotating machinery. It has been found that wall oscillations can reduce the drag in water channel and pipe flows, but there…
We investigate the coupling effect of buoyancy and shear based on an annular centrifugal Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (ACRBC) system in which two cylinders rotate with an angular velocity difference. Direct numerical simulations are…
Subject of this paper falls under the broad heading of the propagation of disturbances causing transition in a fully developed spiral annular flow. The problem is approached through reformulation of the linearised equations of motion…
The flow behavior of granular matter is significantly influenced by the shape of constituent particles. This effect is particularly pronounced for very concave particles, which exhibit unique flow characteristics such as higher porosity and…
We use numerical simulations to study the flow of athermal, frictionless, soft-core two dimensional spherocylinders driven by a uniform steady-state simple shear applied at a fixed volume and a fixed finite strain rate $\dot\gamma$. Energy…
Using event-driven molecular dynamics simulations, we quantify how the self diffusivity of confined hard-sphere fluids depends on the nature of the confining boundaries. We explore systems with featureless confining boundaries that treat…
Transpiration cooling is an active thermal protection system of increasing interest in aerospace applications wherein a coolant is effused through a porous wall into a hot external flow. The present work focuses on the interaction between…
An array of twelve circular-orifice synthetic jet actuators (SJAs) was used to provide the unsteady forcing required for flow separation control over a National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) 0025 airfoil at a chord-based…
