A parametrical study on secondary flow in sharp open-channel bends: experiments and theoretical modelling

Anton Schleiss, Koen Blanckaert, Joris Heyman

The dependence of curvature-induced secondary flow on the curvature ratio H/R (H is the average flow depth and R is the centreline radius of curvature), the Froude number Fr, and the dimensionless roughness coefficient Cf was systematically investigated in ...

Modeling Flow Pattern and Evolution of Meandering Channels with a Nonlinear Model

Koen Blanckaert

Meander dynamics has been the focus of river engineering for decades; however, it remains a challenge for researchers to precisely replicate natural evolution processes of meandering channels with numerical models due to the high nonlinearity of the govern ...

Understanding the mixing process in 3D microfluidic nozzle/diffuser systems: simulations and experiments

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Abdeljalil Sayah

We characterise computationally and experimentally a three-dimensional (3D) microfluidic passive mixer for various Reynolds numbers ranging from 1 to 100, corresponding to primary flow rates of 10-870 mu l min(-1). The 3D mixing channel is composed of mult ...

Resonance in swirling wakes and sloshing waves : non-normal and sublinear effects

Francesco Viola

Similarly to mechanical structures, stable flows can exhibit resonance when perturbed by an impulsive or harmonic forcing. Swirling wakes and sloshing waves belong to this kind of flows and manifest large energy response when excited close to their natural ...

Unsteady flow and particle migration in dense, non-Brownian suspensions

Matthieu Wyart

We present experimental results on dense corn-starch suspensions as examples of non-Brownian, nearly hard particles that undergo continuous and discontinuous shear thickening (DST) at intermediate and high densities, respectively. Our results offer strong ...
