General forms of turbulence models are outlined along with their defects and palliatives for
these in relation to turbomachinery. The turbulence modelling hierarchy available in …

Flow control technologies have been used in the past century to control fluid flows. This text
presents the current state of the art in emerging modern flow control technologies and …

In order to improve the cooling process in impingement synthetic jets, it is necessary to
evaluate the influence of dimensionless parameters and the geometry of the flow field and …

Previous studies have shown that Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS)
computations are able to reproduce the vortex shedding behind a backward-facing step. The …

To unravel the widespread perception that the RANS (Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes)
concept is unreliable in predicting the dynamics of separated flows, we assessed the …

A detailed computational study was performed for the case of a wall-bounded pin-fin-array in
a staggered arrangement, representative of industrial configurations designed to enhance …

The formation and evolution of flow structures of a finite-span synthetic jet issuing into a
quiescent flow were investigated experimentally using stereoscopic particle image …

The unsteady turbulent flow around bodies at high Reynolds number is predicted by an
anisotropic eddy-viscosity model in the context of the Organised Eddy Simulation (OES). A …

Synthetic jet which is also known as pulsed jet is a mechanism that is applied in many
industries, such as manufacturing, automotive, and electronics. It is used in the industries as …

Flow vectoring by a pair of synthetic jets is suitable for modification of the global flow
characteristics with practical applications in active flow control and adaptive heat convection …
