The transverse flow is created by deflection off of the helical wires, exerting a force onto the wires. The resulting pressure field can be more intricate than found for bare fuel pins. There is an increased concern for fluid structure interactions such as twisting, bending, and vibration due to the fluid deflection and increased transverse flow. The present study uses LES to simulate the fluid flow in a wire-wrapped fuel pin bundle. The simulation is performed using Nek5000, a spectral element LES/DNS code. The time-dependent, fluctuating pressure field at the surface of select fuel pins are specifically captured for analysis. Statistical analysis is performed on the pressure data to find areas of persistent force or bending moment, which over large periods of time may result in deformation of the pins. Further, the pressure data is analyzed in search of areas with large fluctuations in pressure, which may result in flow induced vibrations. Frequency spectra of the force fluctuations are analyzed.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79700547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A water tunnel was used to provide uniform water flow with variable velocity magnitude. A high speed camera was used to record instantaneous bubble images. An image-processing code was developed to identify bubble profile and to calculate bubble parameters. The effects of water flow velocity and the flow rate of the injected air were considered. The results indicate that bubble size decreases as the water velocity increases; meanwhile, ellipsoidal bubble shape is transformed into rounded shape. The variation in the air flow rate leads to a slight change of bubble size as well the bubble shape. The bubble velocity fluctuates with the movement of the bubble, and the fluctuations are intensified as the water velocity decreases. As the balance between the forces exerted on the bubble is reached, an approximately linear relationship between the bubble velocity and the water flow velocity is proven. For a given bubble equivalent diameter, the bubble terminal velocity with the liquid cross flow is higher than that associated with stagnant water. For small Eötvös number, the consistency of the bubble aspect ratio in the cross flow and the stagnant water is manifested; however, large Eötvös number obtained here is beyond the range associated with the stagnant water, and the existing relationship is extended.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"76 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90337530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is also known as brittle bone disease. Surgical procedure is one of the ways adopted by clinicians for the management of OI. In recent years, it has however become clear that physical activity is equally important for managing OI in both children and adults. Exogenous mechanical stimulation e.g. prophylactic exercises may be useful in improving the bone mass and strength of OI bones as loading-induced mechanical components e.g. normal strain and canalicular fluid flow stimulate remodeling activities. Several studies have characterized the strain environment in OI bones, whereas, very few studies attempted to characterize the canalicular fluid flow. In the present study, we anticipate that canalicular fluid flow reduces in OI bone as compared to healthy bone under physiological loading. This work accordingly computes the canalicular fluid distribution in the single osteon model of OI and control/normal bones subjected to normal physiological loadings. A transversely isotropic poroelastic model of osteon is developed. Loading is applied in accordance with gait cycles reported for OI and healthy bones. Fluid distribution patterns computed for OI and healthy bones are compared at different time-points of stance phase of the gait cycle. A significant reduction in fluid flow is observed in case of OI bone as compared to healthy bone. This clearly indicates that improvements in physical activities or exercises can be designed to enhance the level of canalicular fluid flow to initiate possible osteogenic activities and the bone.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86038415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The EIT is the building block of a multiphase manifold. Prediction of the slug dissipation length in the EIT provides a guideline for the optimum diameter and length of a manifold. A multiphase flow loop is utilized to investigate slug dissipation in an EIT. The EIT inlet pipe is inclined slightly upward at 5 degrees, in which stationary slugs of different lengths are formed. The generated slugs are pushed into the EIT branches by a pre-determined gas flow rate. Over 80 experimental runs are conducted with superficial gas velocities between 3 to 9 m/s and inlet slug lengths between 40d to 90d, for both air-water and air-oil flows. The experimental data confirm that increasing the superficial gas velocity, as well as the slug body length in the inlet pipe lead to increasing the slug dissipation length in the EIT branches. Furthermore, the data demonstrate that higher slug dissipation length is obtained with water as compared to oil. A mechanistic model is developed for the prediction of slug dissipation in an EIT.

Flow separation causes significant pressure fluctuations that can yield undesirable effects such as vibration, noise, and drag. It is well-known that at highway speeds, over 50% of the fuel is used by a road vehicle to overcome aerodynamic drag. Due to these reasons, bluff body aerodynamics has been the subject of intensive research interests for many decades. In this paper, a new concept of an underbody aerodynamic device is used to modify the turbulent wake region of a bluff body.\u0000 In particular, the underbody device was designed in order to allow for the recirculating flow to reattach and exit the underside of the bluff body while increasing the average speed of the flow and preventing side winds from disturbing the flow. This significantly reduces the underbody recirculation zone, which is a major source of drag. In addition, this ensures that the flow exits with minimum turbulence to reduce the size of the bluff body’s wake. The studies were conducted using the RANS based turbulence model, k-ω SST in ANSYS Fluent. A width-based Reynolds number of 1.1 × 106 was used to conduct the simulations in order to validate the baseline model with NASA’s wind tunnel data; which include the surface pressure coefficients and a drag coefficient. The paper focuses on the changes in the model’s wake that were introduced due to the device and their influence on the underside flow. The results showed that the device significantly reduced the recirculation at the underside of the bluff body. This was found to increase the coefficient of pressure at the base of the model, which reduced the size of the wake. These changes in the flow field resulted in an overall drag coefficient reduction of 4.1%.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81420884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The columns are intended to act as the thermal storage media, which continuously exchange heat with the channel fluid to regulate it thermally. These columns could, for example, be filled with a phase change material (PCM) for passive thermal regulation, or have hot or cold fluid pumped through them for active thermal regulation. The current study has two parts: (1) the flow characterization without heat transfer, and (2) flow characterization during thermal exchange with a PCM used for regulation of bulk fluid temperature. The work presented here is focused only on the first part of the study.\u0000 The experiments were conducted in a narrow channel, with water as the working fluid. Two geometries of the vertical columns (circular and square) and two offset lengths were considered. For each configuration, experiments were conducted at Reynolds numbers of 20, 50 and 90 (based of the column’s characteristic length). Particle image velocimetry was used to measure the two-dimensional velocity field in a horizontal plane at multiple regions of interest along the length of the channel to characterize the flow passing over columns. The results indicate vortex shedding at the two higher Reynolds numbers. The generation, magnitude and decay rate of turbulent energy is shown to have an offset dependency at Re = 90, but a column shape dependency at Re = 50. The mean flow has a shape dependency due to the difference in separation point over the square and circular columns.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"184 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74400076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
