Abstract The present study deals with numerical simulations of the free and submerged hydraulic jumps over different shapes of roughness in various roughness arrangements and different Froude number conditions. The models were studied using three roughness shapes, i.e. triangular, square and semi-oval for 0.2 < T/I < 0.5, where T and I are height and distance of roughness, respectively. The results showed that the numerical model is fairly well able to simulate the free and submerged jump characteristics. The effect of roughness plays a role in the reduction of the relative maximum velocity which is greater in the submerged jump. The thickness of the boundary layer for both free and submerged jumps decreases with increasing the distance between the roughnesses. Triangular macroroughness has a significant effect on the length of the jump and shortest length with respect to the other shapes. The reduction in the submerged depth ratio and tailwater depth ratio depends mainly on the space of the roughnesses. The highest shear stress and energy loss in both jumps occur in a triangular macroroughness (TR) with T/I = 0.50 compared to other ratios and modes. The numerical results were compared with previous studies and relationships with good correlation coefficients were presented for the mentioned parameters.

SummaryThe subject of this paper is the effect of a disturbance to the turbulence structure of the flow on the reading of a Preston tube used to measure wall shear stress. Two kinds of disturbance have been studied experimentally, one caused by reattachment and the other by an abrupt change in wall roughness. The apparent wall shear stress measured by the Preston tube both in channel and boundary layer flows with these kinds of disturbance has been compared with the wall shear stress measured by a sublayer fence. The results give an idea of the magnitude of the error that is likely to arise when the Preston tube is used in a flow with disturbed turbulence structure.

This study investigates the characteristics of free and submerged hydraulic jumps on the triangular bed roughness in various T/I ratios (i.e., height and distance of roughness) using CFD modeling techniques. The accuracy of numerical modeling outcomes was checked and compared using artificial intelligence methods, namely Support Vector Machines (SVM), Gene Expression Programming (GEP), and Random Forest (RF). The results of the FLOW-3D® model and experimental data showed that the overall mean value of relative error is 4.1%, which confirms the numerical model’s ability to predict the characteristics of the free and submerged jumps. The SVM model with a minimum of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and a maximum of correlation coefficient (R2), compared with GEP and RF models in the training and testing phases for predicting the sequent depth ratio (y2/y1), submerged depth ratio (y3/y1), tailwater depth ratio (y4/y1), length ratio of jumps (Lj/y2*) and energy dissipation (ΔE/E1), was recognized as the best model. Moreover, the best result for predicting the length ratio of free jumps (Ljf/y2*) in the optimal gamma is γ = 10 and the length ratio of submerged jumps (Ljs/y2*) is γ = 0.60. Based on sensitivity analysis, the Froude number has the greatest effect on predicting the (y3/y1) compared with submergence factors (SF) and T/I. By omitting this parameter, the prediction accuracy is significantly reduced. Finally, the relationships with good correlation coefficients for the mentioned parameters in free and submerged jumps were presented based on numerical results.

This study deals with turbulent oscillatory boundary-layer flows over a plane bed with a sudden spatial change in roughness. Two kinds of ‘change in the roughness’ were investigated: in one, the roughness changed from a smooth-wall roughness to a roughness equal to 4.8 mm, and in the other, it changed from a roughness equal to 0.35 mm to the same roughness as in the previous experiment (4.8 mm). The free-stream flow was a purely oscillating flow with sinusoidal velocity variation. Mean flow and turbulence properties were measured. The Reynolds number was 6 × 106 for the major part of the experiments, with a maximum velocity of approximately 2 m/s and the stroke of the motion about 6 m. The response of the boundary layer to the sudden change in roughness was found to occur over a transitional length of the flow. The bed shear stress over this transitional length attains a peak value over the bed section with the larger roughness. It was found that the amplification in the bed shear stress due to this peak could be up to 2.5 times its asymptotic value. Also, it was found that the turbulence is quantitatively different in the two half periods; a much stronger turbulence is experienced in the half period where the flow is towards the less-rough section. The present experiments further showed that a constant streaming occurs near the bed in the neighbourhood of the junction between the two bed sections. This streaming is directed towards the section with the larger roughness.

The use of microelectrodes in biofilm research allows a better understanding of intrinsic biofilm processes. Little is known about mass transfer and substrate utilization in the boundary layer of biofilm systems. One possible description of mass transfer can be obtained by mass transfer coefficients, both on the basis of the stagnant film theory or with the Sherwood number. This approach is rather formal and not quite correct when the heterogeneity of the biofilm surface structure is taken into account. It could be shown that substrate loading is a major factor in the description of the development of the density. On the other hand, the time axis is an important factor which has to be considered when concentration profiles in biofilm systems are discussed. Finally, hydrodynamic conditions become important for the development of the biofilm surface when the Reynolds number increases above the range of 3000-4000.

SummaryRecently two authors, Nash and Goldberg, have suggested, intuitively, that the rate at which the shear stress distribution in an incompressible, two-dimensional, turbulent boundary layer would return to its equilibrium value is directly proportional to the extent of the departure from the equilibrium state. Examination of the behaviour of the integral properties of the boundary layer supports this hypothesis. In the present paper a relationship similar to the suggestion of Nash and Goldberg is derived from the local balance of the kinetic energy of the turbulence. Coupling this simple derived relationship to the boundary layer momentum and moment-of-momentum integral equations results in quite accurate predictions of the behaviour of non-equilibrium turbulent boundary layers in arbitrary adverse (given) pressure distributions.

The purpose of this note is to describe a particular class of steady fluid flows, for which the techniques of classical hydrodynamics and boundary-layer theory determine uniquely the asymptotic flow for large Reynolds number for each of a continuously varied set of boundary conditions. The flows involve viscous layers in the interior of the flow domain, as well as boundary layers, and the investigation is unusual in that the position and structure of all the viscous layers are determined uniquely. The note is intended to be an illustration of the principles that lead to this determination, not a source of information of practical value.The flows take place in a two-dimensional channel with porous walls through which fluid is uniformly injected or extracted. When fluid is extracted through both walls there are boundary layers on both walls and the flow outside these layers is irrotational. When fluid is extracted through one wall and injected through the other, there is a boundary layer only on the former wall and the inviscid rotational flow outside this layer satisfies the no-slip condition on the other wall. When fluid is injected through both walls there are no boundary layers, but there is a viscous layer in the interior of the channel, across which the second derivative of the tangential velocity is discontinous, and the position of this layer is determined by the requirement that the inviscid rotational flows on either side of it must satisfy the no-slip conditions on the walls.

Ni2MnGa alloy with 10M martensite exhibits rearrangement of martensite variants (RMV) by magnetic field, but Ni2.14Mn0.92Ga0.94 with 2M martensite does not. In order to explain the difference, we measured uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant Ku and the stress required for twinning plane movement τreq in these alloys. Concerning the former alloy, the maximum value of magnetic shear stress acting across twinning plane τmag, which is evaluated as |Ku| divided by twinning shear, becomes larger than τr eq. On the other hand, concerning the latter alloy, the maximum of τmag is only one-tenth of τreq at any temperature examined. Obviously, the relation, τmag> τr eq, is satisfied when RMV occurs by magnetic field and vice versa. In this martensite, the large twinning shear of 2M martensite is responsible for small τmag and large τreq.
