Vertical tube air flows in the turbulent mixed convection regime calculated using a low-Reynolds-number k ~ ϵ model

TL;DR: In this paper, the Launder and Sharma low-Reynolds-number k ~ ϵ turbulence model is used for developing flow in a tube and the results show that the model is in agreement with a range of experimental heat transfer data and flow profile measurements for air, except for strongly buoyancy-influenced descending flow.

Review of fluid flow and convective heat transfer within rotating disk cavities with impinging jet

TL;DR: In this paper, a review on convective heat transfer in rotor-stator geometries with and without impinging jets is presented, which incorporates two main parts, namely, experimental/theoretical methodologies and geometry/results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lagrangian vortex sheets for animating fluids

TL;DR: A novel approach is presented that employs a triangle mesh as a high-resolution surface representation combined with a coarse Eulerian solver to accurately simulate buoyancy induced turbulence in turbulent plumes with sharp smoke-air interface.

Contribution to elliptic relaxation modelling of turbulent natural and mixed convection

TL;DR: In this article, the eddy-viscosity elliptic-relaxation approach is applied to the computation of several 2D and 3D natural and mixed convection flows in turbulent regime.

Numerical investigation of cyclic variations in gasoline engines using a hybrid URANS/LES modeling approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the feasibility of using a detached eddy simulation (DES) SST model, which is a hybrid URANS/LES model, to predict cycle to cycle variations is investigated.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
