Computational Modelling of Turbulent Mixing in Confined Swirling Environment Under Constant and Variable Density Conditions

TL;DR: In this article, a high-intensity swirling flow in a model combustor subjected to large density variations has been examined computationally, where the focus is on the Favre-averaged Navier-Stokes computations of the momentum and scalar transport employing turbulence models based on the differential secondmoment closure (SMC) strategy.

The computation of flow and heat transfer through square-ended U-bends, using low-Reynolds-number models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on the computation of turbulent flow and heat transfer in U-bends of strong curvature and showed that the mean flow development is mainly influenced by mean pressure rather than the turbulence field.

Computational modeling of the combustion of coal water slurries containing petrochemicals

TL;DR: In this article, a combustion predictive model was developed based on the results of experiments with coal water slurry and coal-water slurry containing petrochemicals, which takes into account the effect of liquid flammable component on the main mass and heat transfer as well as other physical and chemical processes in the combustion chamber.

Computations of a turbulent wake in a strong adverse pressure gradient

TL;DR: In this article, numerical solutions of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are presented for the near wake of a flat plate with and without the effects of an adverse pressure gradient.

Numerical study on turbulent flow and heat transfer in circular couette flows

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical study was performed to investigate heat transfer and fluid flow in the entrance and fully developed regions of an annulus, consisting of a rotating, insulated inner cylinder and a stationary, heated outer cylinder.

The prediction of laminarization with a two-equation model of turbulence

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

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

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.
