Downstream Flow

An approximate mathematical model for the static, no-load (blocked receiver) operation of a fluidic amplifier employing axisymmetric jets is developed. The amplifier is similar in concept to the three-terminal modulator developed by the Johnson Service Co. The approach used in developing the model assumes that the complex flow phenomena can be represented by the combination of several elementary flow problems. The model employs the concept of an equivalent power nozzle in describing downstream flow with a control signal present. Experimental results are presented to justify assumptions and evaluate parameters.

This section of the book revisits a question from the book The Lattice Boltzmann Equation (for fluid dynamics and beyond). This question is: What did we learn through lattice Boltzmann? Did LB make a real difference to our understanding of the physics of fluids and flowing matter in general? Here, the text aims to offer a subjective view, without the presumption of being right. Besides being routinely used for a broad spectrum of complex flow problems, there are, in the opinion expressed in this part of the book, a few precious instances in which LB has made a palpable difference.

ost of the flow phenomena important to modern technology involve turbulence. Propellers generally operate in the very complex flow field that may be highly turbulent and spatially non-uniform. Propeller skew is the single most effective design parameter which has significant influence on reducing propeller induced vibration. Up to date applications of propeller skew does not has a specified criteria for any turbulent model. This paper deals with the model which explains the effect of propeller skewness on hydrodynamic performance related to study of turbulent model via mathematical and numerical modeling. The simulation work is carried out using ANSYS-FLUENT software.

Abstract Positioning accuracy within the range of nanometers is required for high precision machining applications. The implementation of such a range is difficult through the slides because of (a) irregular nature of friction at the slider-guideway interface, and (b) complex motion characteristic at very low speeds. The complexity arises due to the local deformation at the interface prior to breakaway, which is known as microdynamics. In this work prior experimental results exhibiting microdynamics have been appraised, and mathematical model developed to understand this behavior.

Granular flow behavior is of fundamental interest to the engineering and scientific community because of the prevalence of these flows in the pharmaceutical, agricultural, food service, and powder manufacturing industries. Granular materials exhibit very complex behavior, oftentimes acting as solids and at other times as fluids. This dual nature leads to very complex and rich behavior, which is not yet well understood. Therefore, the present investigation introduces a new technique that can potentially be used to unveil the mystery of granular flow phenomena. To this end, advanced finite element modeling and simulation techniques have been applied to the study of the complex nature of granular flow. More specifically, the explicit dynamic code LS-DYNA has been utilized to gain an understanding of the complex flow nature and collision stresses of granules in a shear cell.

Occlusion is a difficult problem to be solved in the process of target tracking. In order to solve the problem of occlusion, a new tracking method combined with trajectory prediction and multi-block matching is presented and studied,and a mathematical model of trajectory prediction of moving target is established in polar coordinates and verified through some experiments. The experimental results show that the new tracking method can be better to trace and forecast the moving target under occlusion.

Immobilized Biomass

This paper focuses on a simultaneous removal of trichlorfon and glucose that was added as carbon source for degradation requirement of trichlorfon. A hybrid bioreactor, having both suspended and magnetically immobilized biomass, was used for investigating this removal of both substances. To evaluate the respective roles of these two types of biomass, a mathematical model was developed and also verified well with experimental results. It has been found that the suspended biomass plays a key role in removing both substances in the system. This is due to complete coexistence of both trichlorfon-degrading and glucose-removing bacteria completely in each type of the biomass. Such a system would be applicable to the treatment of complex industrial wastewaters that contain easily biodegradable organics as well as refractory pollutants.
