In order to lower down the fuel consumption and to achieve higher speed of ship, reduction
in ship resistance has been the major topic of research for a long time. The most important …

Although many investigations on the drag reduction by microbubbles have been conducted,
a general mechanism guiding the design of the drag reduction system has not been …

When a few bubbles are entrained in a travelling vortex ring, it has been shown that, even at
extremely low volume loadings, their presence can significantly affect the structure of the …

We performed laboratory experiments on bubbly channel flows using silicone oil, which has
a low surface tension and clean interface to bubbles, as a test fluid to evaluate the wall …

Direct numerical simulations (DNSs) of a turbulent boundary layer (TBL) with Reθ= 570–
2560 were performed to investigate the spatial development of its turbulence characteristics …

Microbubble drag reduction has good application prospects. It operates by injecting a large
number of bubbles with tiny diameters into a turbulent boundary layer. However, its …

The effect of viscoelasticity on turbulent cavitating flow inside a nozzle is simulated for Phan-
Thien-Tanner (PTT) fluids. Two different flow configurations are used to show the effect of …

The objective of the present study is to provide a numerical database of thermal boundary
layers and to contribute to the understanding of the dynamics of passive scalars at different …

The paper describes a numerical study of the effects of microbubbles on the vorticity
dynamics in a Taylor–Green vortex flow (TGV) using the two-fluid approach. The results …

We have performed large-eddy simulation with subgrid scale (LES-SGS) stretched-vortex
model of an inclined sonic jet into a supersonic crossflow at Mach 3.6. The main flow …
