13. Sonic anemometry and sediment traps to evaluate the effectiveness of windbreaks in preventing wind erosion
ABSTRACT The present work analyzes the effectiveness of windbreaks against wind erosion through the study of streamline patterns and turbulent flow by means of sonic anemometry and sediment traps. To this end, windbreaks composed of plastic meshes (7.5 m long and 0.7 m tall) were used. Windbreaks are a good means to reduce wind erosion, as they produce a pos

14. Detailed Numerical Study on the Aerodynamic Behavior of a Gurney Flapped Airfoil in the Ultra-low Reynolds Regime
ABSTRACT: The addition of Gurney flap changes the nature of flow around airfoil by producing asymmetric Von-Karman vortex in its wake. Most of the investigations on Gurney flapped airfoils have modeled the flow using a quasi-steady approach, resulting in time-averaged values with no information on the unsteady features of the flow. Among these, some investig

15. Numerical Study of Wake Characteristics in a Horizontal-Axis Hydrokinetic Turbine
ABSTRACT Over the years most studies on wake characteristics have been devoted to wind turbines, while few works are related to hydrokinetic turbines. Among studies applied to rivers, depth and width are important parameters for a suitable design. In this work, a numerical study of the wake in a horizontal-axis hydrokinetic turbine is performed, where the ma

16. THE EFFECT OF SURFACTANT AND HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT POLYMER ADDITION ON PRESSURE DROP REDUCTION IN PIPE FLOW
Abstract The main aim of this paper is to present a possibility to enhance the drag reduction effect in straight pipe flow by the simultaneous addition to the transported liquid of a small amount of high molecular weight polymers and surfactants. Qualitative analysis of the polymer-micellar additive influence on the shape and character of flow resistance cur

17. A FORMAÇÃO DA CAMADA PROTETORA DE FeCO3 E O CONTROLE DA CORROSÃO POR CO2 EM CONDIÇOES DE FLUXO TURBULENTO
The formation of a protective layer of iron carbonate (FeCO3) can reduce the rates of corrosion and prolong the useful life of carbon steel. However, turbulent flow conditions in this layer can easily be damaged and thus compromise the protection of the steel. In this work, will be presented a methodology based on the chemical aspects of the mechanism of for

18. THE IMPACT OF RADIATION IN THE GAS COMBUSTION MODEL FOR SUGARCANE BAGASSE GRATE BOILER
Abstract This work evaluates the impact of different radiation models on the results of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation of a sugarcane bagasse grate boiler. CFD has been applied extensively in the development of comprehensive models for biomass heterogeneous combustion. The model presented in this paper considers the turbulent flow represented

19. LARGE EDDY SIMULATION COMBINED WITH EQUIVALENT DIAMETER FOR TURBULENT JET MODELLING AND GAS DISPERSION
Abstract CFD modelling combines transport phenomena and numerical approaches to solve physical problems. Although numerical modelling of flow scenarios is the cutting edge of flow modelling, there seems to be room for improvement. This paper proposes an approach for jet modelling in a low Mach number computational code. The methodology is based on the equiva

20. Numerical Study of Reduced Frequency Effect on Longitudinal Stability Derivatives of Airfoil under Pitching and Plunging Oscillations
ABSTRACT In this study, incompressible, unsteady and turbulent flow over an airfoil with pitching and plunging oscillations is numerically studied in order to investigate the effect of reduced frequency on stability derivatives of oscillating airfoil. Linear k – ε model called Launder-Sharma and Rhie and Chow model are used for turbulence modeling and ove

21. NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE INCOMPRESSIBLE TURBULENT FLOW OF A BINARY MIXTURE OF AIR-WATER VAPOR: APPLICATIONS IN DRYING PROCESS
Abstract The present work deals with numerical simulation of the incompressible turbulent flow of a binary mixture air-water vapor inside channels. Calculations are performed using the RANS (Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes Equations) formulation in addition to the standart k-ε turbulence model. The mathematical model is discretized by a finite difference sch

22. NUMERICAL PREDICTION OF BUBBLE SIZE AND INTERFACIAL AREA CONCENTRATION IN THE LIQUID BATH OF AN ENTRAINED-FLOW COAL GASIFIER
Abstract A CFD-ABND coupling model was used to study the flow characteristic of gas-liquid two-phase flow in the process of gas passing through the liquid bath of a water-coal-slurry entrained-flow gasifier. In this model, an average bubble number density (ABND) approach was employed and merged with the two-fluid model. A two-phase version of the RNG k-ε tu

23. One-Stage Power Turbine Preliminary Design and Analysis
ABSTRACT: Design and development of gas turbine components are a complex multidisciplinary process. At the beginning of the power class definition and engine configuration it is necessary to conduct a market study. The results obtained are used in gas turbine thermodynamic cycle calculations and analysis in order to define the gas turbine design point. Sever

24. CO2 Corrosion in the Region Between the Static and Turbulent Flow Regimes
This paper discusses the influence of the flow of a fluid from the static regime to the turbulent in CO2 corrosion experienced by low carbon steel. A more comprehensive approach to CO2 corrosion implies taking the free flowing velocity and shear stress of the fluid and the surface roughness of the material into consideration. Low carbon steel samples in two
