We present an in-situ uniaxial pressure device optimized for small angle X-ray and neutron scattering experiments at low-temperatures and high magnetic fields. A stepper motor generates force, which is transmitted to the sample via a rod…
We have implemented the log-conformation method for two-dimensional viscoelastic flow in COMSOL, a commercial high-level finite element package. The code is verified for an Oldroyd-B fluid flowing past a confined cylinder. We are also able…
This work aims to estimate time-resolved velocity field that is directly associated with pressure fluctuations in a subsonic round jet. To achieve this goal, synchronous measurements of the velocity field and in-flow pressure fluctuations…
The atmospheric incoming flow of a wind turbine is intimately connected to its power production as well as its structural stability. Here we present an incoming flow measurement of a utility-scale turbine at the high spatio-temporal…
Annular flow is the primary characteristic of unsteady wastewater flow, which initiates entrained air and sets up the air pressure regime within the system - an important design consideration. This paper reports on an experimental…
Flows of particles through bottlenecks are ubiquitous in nature and industry, involving both dry granular materials and suspensions. However, practical limitations of conventional experimental setups hinder the full understanding of these…
Droplet generation under steady conditions is a common microfluidic method for producing biphasic systems. However, this process works only over a limited range of imposed pressure: beyond a critical value, a stable liquid jet can instead…
We report on an instrument for applying ac and dc magnetic fields by capturing the flux from a rotating permanent magnet and projecting it between two adjustable pole pieces. This can be an alternative to standard electromagnets for…
Rapid fluctuations of static pressure away from flow boundaries in a low-speed vortical flow, are extracted using the measured velocity field. The technique departs from prior work in not requiring far boundary values. Stereo Particle Image…
The mixing of an impurity into a flowing fluid is an important process in many areas of science, including geophysical processes, chemical reactors, and microfluidic devices. In some cases, for example periodic flows, the concepts of…
We report experimental observations of turbulent flow with spherical particles in a square duct. Three particle sizes namely: $2H/d_{p}$ = 40, 16 and 9 ($2H$ being the duct full height and $d_{p}$ being the particle diameter) are…
The mass flow conductance of single nanoholes with diameter ranging from 75 to 100 nm was measured using mass spectrometry. For all nanoholes, a smooth crossover is observed between single-particle statistical flow (effusion) and the…
The evaluation of fluid forces on the stem is important for wear prediction of valve and actuator guidance parts. While estimating the axial load is straight forward, estimating and/or measuring the side load is more difficult, especially…
In this paper we outline methods for calculating the pressure field inside flow conduits in the one-dimensional flow models where the pressure is dependent on the axial coordinate only. The investigation is general with regard to the tube…
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is one of the essential tools to ensure oxygen supply during cardiac arrest. However, the precise effects of chest compression are not quantifiable to this day. This often results in a low quality of…
A high pumping speed is required in neutral beam injectors to minimise re-ionisation of the neutral beams. The neutral beam injectors on MAST use titanium sublimation pumps. These pumps do not have a constant pumping speed; their pumping…
Abridged: We study the properties of clumps formed in three-dimensional weakly magnetized magneto-hydrodynamic simulations of converging flows in the thermally bistable, warm neutral medium (WNM). We find that: (1) Similarly to the…
Flow cytometry is a powerful quantitative assay supporting high-throughput collection of single-cell data with a high dynamic range. For flow cytometry to yield reproducible data with a quantitative relationship to the underlying biology,…
This paper outlines a novel subsea flushing system which uses a subsea tool to improve the performance of the flushing operation. The new method outlined in this paper uses a small-diameter, high-pressure supply line and a subsea deployed…
We present for the first time an experimental investigation of electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flows within a neutrally buoyant drop with initial radius of 2.25 mm. Utilizing particle image velocimetry (PIV) and high-speed shadowgraphy, we…
