Book Fluid Vortices

Download or read book Fluid Vortices written by Sheldon Green and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 905 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluid Vortices is a comprehensive, up-to-date, research-level overview covering all salient flows in which fluid vortices play a significant role. The various chapters have been written by specialists from North America, Europe and Asia, making for unsurpassed depth and breadth of coverage. Topics addressed include fundamental vortex flows (mixing layer vortices, vortex rings, wake vortices, vortex stability, etc.), industrial and environmental vortex flows (aero-propulsion system vortices, vortex-structure interaction, atmospheric vortices, computational methods with vortices, etc.), and multiphase vortex flows (free-surface effects, vortex cavitation, and bubble and particle interactions with vortices). The book can also be recommended as an advanced graduate-level supplementary textbook. The first nine chapters of the book are suitable for a one-term course; chapters 10--19 form the basis for a second one-term course.

Book Flow Control Through Bio inspired Leading Edge Tubercles

Download or read book Flow Control Through Bio inspired Leading Edge Tubercles written by Daniel T. H. New and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-31 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and explains the basis of bio-inspired, leading-edge tubercles based on humpback whale flippers as passive but effective flow control devices, as well as providing a comprehensive practical guide in their applications. It first discusses the morphology of the humpback whale flipper from a biological perspective, before presenting detailed experimental and numerical findings from past investigations by various experts on the benefits of leading-edge tubercles and their engineering implementations. Leading-edge tubercle designs and functions have attracted considerable interest from researchers in terms of understanding their role in the underwater agility of these whales, and to exploit their flow dynamics in the development of new and novel engineering solutions. Extensive research over the past recent years has demonstrated that the maneuverability of these whales is at least in part due to the leading-edge tubercles acting as passive flow control devices to delay stall and increase lift in the post-stall regime. In addition to the inherent benefits in terms of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, investigations into leading-edge tubercles have also broadened into areas of noise attenuation, stability and industrial applications. This book touches upon these areas, with an emphasis upon the effects of lifting-surface types, flow regimes, tubercle geometries, lifting-surface stability and potential industrial applications, among others. As such, it features contributions from key experts in the fields of biology, physics and engineering who have conducted significant studies into understanding the various aspects of leading-edge tubercles. Given the broad coverage and in-depth analysis, this book will benefit academic researchers, practicing engineers and graduate students interested in tapping into such a unique but highly functional flow control strategy.

Book Tip Vortex Cavitation Characteristics and Delay of Inception on a Three Dimensional Hydrofoil

Download or read book Tip Vortex Cavitation Characteristics and Delay of Inception on a Three Dimensional Hydrofoil written by William G. Souders and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A research program was conducted to investigate both the fundamental aspects of, and techniques for delaying, tip vortex cavitation on a three-dimensional hydrofoil. The specific concepts considered for delaying tip vortex cavitation included: a bulbous tip, an artificially roughened tip, and a mass injected tip. The experiments were conducted in the David W. Taylor Naval Ship Research and Development Center 24-inch cavitation tunnel, where the effects of the various concepts on both foil tip vortex cavitation inception and performance were established. These measurements were made at a Reynolds number R subscript c, based on root chord length, of approximately 5,000,000. Some of the more fundamental aspects of the tip vortex rollup process have been documented through the use of flow visualization techniques. The results for the tip vortex cavitation delay concepts indicate substantial increases in the tip vortex cavitation inception speed relative to the unaltered tip; i.e., a 94 percent increase for the roughened tip, 38 percent for the bulbous tip, and 54 percent and 33 percent for the active and passive mass injected respectively. These results were obtained over a wide range of foil angle of attack and with little or no measurable loss in foil performance; i.e., no measurable lift decrease or drag increase. (Author).
