Upstream Flow

The reliability of water flow measurement in irrigational canals depends on the measurement method and design features of the flow-measuring structure and the upstream flow velocity profile. The flow velocity profile is a function of the channel geometry and wall roughness. The article presents the study results of the influence of the upstream flow velocity profile on the discharge measurement accuracy. For this, the physical and numerical modeling of two structures was carried out: a critical depth flume and a hydrometric overfall in a rectangular channel. According to the data of numerical simulation of the critical depth flume with a uniform and parabolic (1/7) velocity profile in the upstream channel, the values of water discharge differ very little from the experimental values in the laboratory model with a similar geometry (δ < 2 %). In contrast to the critical depth flume, a change in the velocity profile only due to an increase in the height of the bottom roughness by 3 mm causes a decrease of the overfall discharge coefficient by 4…5 %. According to the results of the numerical and physical modeling, it was found that an increase of backwater by hydrometric structure reduces the influence of the upstream flow velocity profile and increases the reliability of water flow measurements.

Current Detection

In spite of the increased use of streaming current detectors (SCDs) as a means of monitoring and/or controlling coagulant dosage, knowledge regarding fundamental workings is incomplete. This paper provides an initial attempt at predicting and verifying functioning compared to electrophoretic mobility. The instrument's components -- the sensor and the signal processor -- are first described. Equations modelling electro-double layer behavior in its sensor are then developed. Simplifying assumptions include the use of a capacitance model of the double layer and a triangular velocity profile for fluid within the sensor's annulus. More complex modelling approaches are also suggested which incorporate the Gouy-Chapman electro-double layer model and an exact solution for the velocity profile. Experimental results confirm predictions of the simplified model under conditions of low potential. A monotonic relationship exists between streaming current electrophoretic mobility, which is required for its use as a control parameter. Deviations from model predictions are suggested to be due to charge characteristics of the sensor surfaces themselves.

Objective: In this paper, we consider a model that describes the ciliary beating in the form of metachronal waves along with the effects of Magnetohydrodynamic fluid over a curved channel with slip effects. This work aims at evaluating the effect of Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) on the steady two dimensional (2-D) mixed convection flow induced in carbon nanotubes. The work is done for both the single wall nanotube and multiple wall nanotube. The right wall and the left wall possess a metachronal wave that is travelling along the outer boundary of the channel. Methods: The wavelength is considered as very large for cilia induced MHD flow. The governing linear coupled equations are simplified by considering the approximations of long wavelength and small Reynolds number. Exact solutions are obtained for temperature and velocity profile. The analytical expressions for the pressure gradient and wall shear stresses are obtained. Term for pressure rise is obtained by applying Numerical integration method. Results: Numerical results of velocity profile are mentioned in a table form, for various values of solid volume fraction, curvature, Hartmann number [M] and Casson fluid parameter [ζ]. Final section of this paper is devoted to discussing the graphical results of temperature, pressure gradient, pressure rise, shear stresses and stream functions. Conclusion: Velocity profile near the right wall of the channel decreases when we add nanoparticles into our base fluid, whereas an opposite behaviour is depicted near the left wall due to ciliated tips whereas the temperature is an increasing function of B and ߛ and decreasing function of ߶.

Stability Of The Solution

The problem of convective diffusion toward the sphere in laminar flow around the sphere is solved by combination of the analytical and net methods for the region of Peclet number λ ≥ 1. The problem was also studied for very small values λ. Stability of the solution has been proved in relation to changes of the velocity profile.
