Numerical Modelling of the Flow Around Rowing Oar Blades (P71)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to model the flow around an oar blade and validate this model against experimental data to provide insight into the mechanisms of lift and drag generation.

Experimental and numerical study of airflow pattern and particle dispersion in a vertical ventilation duct
Nguyen Lu Phuong,Kazuhide Ito +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a numerical simulation has been conducted to investigate the behavior of airflow and the dispersion of size-dependent particles in the ventilation duct, which showed that a vertical duct with a baffle in a perfect sink condition on the wall surfaces increased particle deposition and decreased particle escape.

Simulating the fluid dynamic behaviour of oar blades in competition rowing
TL;DR: In this article, the hydrodynamic behaviour of rowing oar blades using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was examined, and the Big Blade oar design and a flat rectangular oar were compared against previously published experimental data carried out on quarter-scale blades held stationary at a number of angles of attack to the oncoming flow.

Computation of enhanced turbulent heat transfer in a channel with periodic ribs
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate low Reynolds number models of turbulence for numerical computations on the heat transfer and fluid flow behavior in a rectangular channel with streamwise-periodic ribs mounted on one of the principal walls.

Comparison of Turbulence Models in Case of Jet in Crossflow Using Commercial CFD Code
A. Karvinen,H. Ahlstedt +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a circular jet in a crossflow is simulated numerically using a commercial CFD code and a grid resolution study is performed to find a grid that yields a grid-independent solution.

The prediction of laminarization with a two-equation model of turbulence
W.P. Jones,Brian Launder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the local turbulent viscosity is determined from the solution of transport equations for the turbulence kinetic energy and the energy dissipation rate, and the predicted hydrodynamic and heat-transfer development of the boundary layers is in close agreement with the measured behaviour.

The calculation of low-Reynolds-number phenomena with a two-equation model of turbulence
W.P. Jones,Brian Launder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present numerical predictions of various turbulent shear flows in which the structure of the viscous sublayer exerts appreciable influence on the flow, where the turbulence energy and its dissipation rate are calculated by way of transport equations which are solved simultaneously with the conservation equations for the mean flow.

Heat and mass transfer from rotating cones
C. L. Tien,D. T. Campbell +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer by convection from isothermal rotating cones is investigated experimentally by measuring the sublimation rate from naphthalene-coated cones and using the analogy between heat and mass transfer.
