Experimental Investigation on the Turbulence of Particle-Laden Liquid Flows in a Vertical Pipe Loop
DownloadSpring 2016
The turbulent motion of particles and their interactions with the turbulence of the carrier phase make a complex system. Hence understanding the physics and consequently developing a well-stablished model becomes very difficult. With insufficient computational power to numerically resolve all the...

Habibzadeh Gharehbaba, Alireza
The current work presents the results of an experimental study on the effects of submergence on the performance of a submerged hydraulic jump with baffle blocks downstream of a sluice gate. A wide range of Froude numbers, submergence factors, and block sizes, locations and arrangements were...

Experiments and Computer Simulations on Aerodynamic Drag Reduction of Light Vehicle-Trailer Systems
DownloadFall 2015
Wind-tunnel experiments and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) were performed to study the effect a deflector had on the flow and drag force associated with a 2010 F-150 truck and cargo trailer (Light Vehicle-Trailer System - LVTS). Image Correlation Velocimetry (ICV) on smokewire streaklines...

Experiments investigating momentum transfer, turbulence and air-water gas transfer in a wind wave tank
DownloadSpring 2011
A series of laboratory experiments were conducted at three fetches of 4.8, 8.8 and 12.4 m, and at six wind speeds ranging from 4.1 to 9.6 m/s at each fetch in a wind-wave-current research facility. In addition, five surfactant-influenced experiments were conducted at concentrations ranging from...

Spring 2010
We report upon an experimental study of internal gravity waves generated by the large-amplitude vertical oscillations of a circular cylinder in uniformly stratified fluid. Quantitative measurements are performed using a modified synthetic schlieren technique for strongly stratified solutions of...

Fall 2023
Fixed beds are widely used in the chemical and process industry due to their simple yet effective performance. They find applications in heterogeneous catalysis (e.g., dry reforming of methane, methanol synthesis, etc.) and in adsorption (hydrogen from steam methane reforming, post-combustion CO2...

Improved Quantification of Viscoelastic Effects during Polymer Flooding Using Extensional Rheology
DownloadSpring 2019
Polymer flooding is one of the traditional chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods with a high rate of success. Synthetic polymer such as hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) characterized by flexible chain exhibits viscoelastic characteristics in porous media. Some of the implications of the...

Fall 2009
Internal gravity waves transport energy and momentum in both the atmosphere and the ocean. This physical process occurs at such small length scales that it is not captured by coarse resolution numerical models of weather and climate. A series of experiments is presented that model the generation...
