We study turbulent flows in pressure-driven ducts with square cross-section through direct numerical simulation in a wide enough range of Reynolds number to reach flow conditions which are representative of fully developed turbulence.…
We study the experimental properties of exchange flows in a stratified inclined duct (SID), which are simultaneously turbulent, strongly stratified by a mean vertical density gradient, driven by a mean vertical shear, and continuously…
We carry out direct numerical simulation (DNS) of flow in a turbulent square duct by focusing on heat transfer effects, considering the case of unit Prandtl number. Reynolds numbers up to $Re_\tau \approx 2000$ are considered which are much…
Counter-flow or counter-current configurations can maintain high turbulence intensities and exhibit a significant level of mixing. We have previously introduced a wall-bounded counter-flow turbulent channel configuration (Physical Review…
The efficient mixing of fluids is key in many applications, such as chemical reactions and nanoparticle precipitation. Detailed experimental measurements of the mixing dynamics are however difficult to obtain, and so predictive numerical…
A conservative coupled finite difference-boundary element computational procedure for the simulation of turbulent magnetohydrodynamic flow in a straight rectangular duct at finite magnetic Reynolds number is presented. The flow is assumed…
Turbulent concentric coaxial (annular) pipe flow is numerically investigated using a stochastic one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model as a stand-alone tool. The dimensionally reduced ODT domain enables fully resolved numerical simulations…
Long-chained, viscoelastic surfactant solutions (VES) have been widely employed in the oil and gas industry, particularly in hydraulic fracturing and gravel-packing operations, where turbulence is commonly reached due to high pumping rates.…
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) are performed to study the turbulent shear flow of an electrically conducting fluid in a cylindrical container. The flow is driven by the interaction between the radial electric currents ($I$) injected…

The aim of the present work is to investigate the role of coherent structures in the generation of the secondary flow in a turbulent square duct. The coherent structures are defined as connected regions of flow where the product of the…
Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flow at a shear Reynolds number of $Re_{*}=360$ for Newtonian and Herschel-Bulkley fluids in smooth and rough channels has been performed. The rough surface was made of irregular…
Direct numerical simulations of free round jets at a Reynolds number ($Re_{D}$) of $5000$, based on jet diameter ($D$) and jet-exit bulk velocity ($U_{e}$), are performed to study jet turbulence characteristics at supercritical pressures.…
In the current study, the influence of turbulent mixing and local reaction rates on deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) was investigated using a state-of-the-art large eddy simulation (LES) strategy. Specifically, detonation…
The plasmoid instability may lead to fast magnetic reconnection through long current sheets(CS). It is well known that large-Reynolds-number plasmas easily become turbulent. We address the question whether turbulence enhances the energy…
Turbulent flows of viscoplastic fluids at high Reynolds numbers have been investigated recently with direct numerical simulations (DNS) but experimental results have been limited. For this reason, we carry out an experimental study of fully…
Combustion in automotive and aerospace applications employing diesel, gas turbine and liquid rocket engines is preceded by injection and mixing of fuel and oxidizer at high pressures, often exceeding mixture critical values. Experimental…
Fine manipulation of fluid flows at the microscale has a tremendous impact on mass transport phenomena of chemical and biological processes inside microfluidic platforms. Fluid mixing in the laminar flow regime at low Reynolds is poorly…
