Desalination is a rainfall independent source of water for security long term water supplies.
Is is expected that in the medium term desalination would be an optimum to apply to different …

Numerical simulations of turbulent fountain flow are used to investigate the important energy
and mass transfer mechanisms present in the forced fountain flow regime, which has been …

Turbulent volcanic plumes disperse fine ash particles and toxic gases in the atmosphere
and can lead to significant temperature drops in the atmosphere. In the geological past, the …

During explosive eruptions, volcanic plumes inject ash into the atmosphere and may
severely affect air traffic, as illustrated by the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption. Quantitative …

Explosive volcanic jets can transition to buoyant plumes or collapse to form pyroclastic
density currents depending on their ability to entrain and heat the ambient air. Recent one …

The present paper proposes an algebraic zonal model describing the cooling process, via
internal oil and external air natural convection, of distribution transformers during a …

Particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiments have been conducted to study the velocity flow
fields in the developing flow region of high-speed jets. These velocity distributions were …

Models of a single-phase liquid-into-liquid buoyant jet and a two-phase vapor-into-liquid
turbulent jet-plume injected in horizontal orientation were developed for analyzing the …

DNS data of particle-laden jets are discussed both in the one-and two-way coupling
regimes. Dynamics of inertial particles in turbulent jets is characterized by an anomalous …

We report the results of laboratory experiments on a turbulent plume, a simplified model of a
positively buoyant volcanic plume with a small content of fine ash to study how the shape of …
