Unsteady flow and particle migration in dense, non-Brownian suspensions

Matthieu Wyart

We present experimental results on dense corn-starch suspensions as examples of non-Brownian, nearly hard particles that undergo continuous and discontinuous shear thickening (DST) at intermediate and high densities, respectively. Our results offer strong ...

Velocity profile measurements in bore waves

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich

Hydrodynamic waves are an unsteady flow motion generated by rapid water level rise. In nature, such events can be found in dam-break waves, impulse waves and tsunamis. These phenomena are rare, but highly destructive. The present study is based on an exper ...

Numerical and experimental evidence of the inter-blade cavitation vortex development at deep part load operation of a Francis turbine

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry, Andres Müller, Keita Yamamoto

Francis turbines are subject to various types of the cavitation flow depending on the operating condition s. In order to compensate for the stochastic nature of renewable energy sources, it is more and more required to extend the operating range of the gen ...

Experimental study on the influence of abrupt slope changes on flow characteristics over stepped spillways

Mohammad Javad Ostad Mirza

Application of stepped spillways increases the energy dissipation rate along the spillway and may reduce the dimensions of the terminal energy dissipation structure. This pronounced energy dissipation makes stepped chutes attractive under various condition ...

Simulation of viscoelastic fluids in a 2D abrupt contraction by spectral element method

Michel Deville, Nicolas Fietier, Azadeh Jafari

This study presents the vortex structure and numerical instability increase occurring when the level of elasticity is enhanced in inertial flows in planar contraction configuration for finitely extensible nonlinear elastic model by Peterlin (FENE-P) fluid ...

Mind The Gap : Tip Leakage Vortex Dynamics and Cavitation in Axial Turbines

Matthieu Dreyer

The tip leakage vortex (TLV), which develops in the clearance between the blade tip and the casing of axial turbomachines, appears in many industrial applications, such as air transportation, space rockets and hydraulic machines. In the latter, cavitation ...

Unsteady asymmetric engulfment regime in a T-mixex

Andrea Fani

Unsteady flow regimes in a micro T-mixer are investigated. Direct numerical simulations (DNS) show that, in agreement with experimental and numerical results in the literature, when the Reynolds number is increased above a critical value larger than those ...

Boundary layer effects on the vortex shedding in a Donaldson-type hydrofoil

François Avellan, Mohamed Farhat, Amirreza Zobeiri, Eduard Egusquiza

Structure Interaction (FSI) phenomena is becoming a relevant study field for the design or revamping of hydropower plants. The generalized trend of increasing flow rates and reducing rotor blades/stay vanes thickness in order to improve the efficiency of t ...
