The choice of turbulence model can have a strong impact on results for many
turbomachinery zones. Palliative corrections to them and also transition modeling can have …

Fluid flow and convective heat transfer in rotor-stator configurations, which are of great
importance in different engineering applications, are treated in details in this review. The …

Modelling transport and mixing by turbulence in complex flows is one of the greatest
challenges for CFD. This highly readable volume introduces the reader to a level of …

This paper proposes a facile and low-cost method of preparing superhydrophobic surfaces
on aluminium substrates using a two-step spraying method. A layer of hydrocarbon resin …

Rotating Thermal Flows in Natural and Industrial Processes provides the reader with a
systematic description of the different types of thermal convection and flow instabilities in …

A robust and fully predictive mathematical representation has been derived to predict the
swirl ratio, pressure, and torque in enclosed rotor–stator cavities. For the flow regime of …

Rotor-stator cavity flows are known to exhibit unsteady flow structures in the form of circular
and spiral rolls. While the origin of the spirals is well understood, that of the circular rolls is …

In this essay, we recall the specificities of the transition to turbulence in wall-bounded flows
and present recent achievements in the understanding of this problem. The transition is …

Numerous studies have indicated that turbulence typically initiates along the boundary layer
of the stationary disk within a rotor–stator cavity. To describe the transition process to …

流场过渡流临界特性是指流场因流动状态改变而引起的流场物理特性变化.
如流动从定常演化为非定常周期性时, 流动处于过渡状态的物理性质. 它从根本上决定了流动 …
