Experimental and computational investigation of single particle behavior in low Reynolds number linear shear flows
Nima Fathi, Seyed Sobhan Aleyasin, Peter Vorobieff +1
Trajectories of a buoyant spherical solid particle in a linear shear flow were investigated at low Reynolds numbers. A two-dimensional CFD analysis was performed to simulate the so…
Dalton's and Amagat's laws fail in gas mixtures with shock propagation
Patrick Wayne, Sean Cooper, Dylan Simons +7
As a shock wave propagates through a gas mixture, pressure, temperature, and density increase across the shock front. Rankine-Hugoniot (R-H) relations quantify these changes, corre…
Shock-driven transition to turbulence: emergence of power-law scaling
Dell Olmstead, Patrick Wayne, Dylan Simons +5
We consider two cases of interaction between a planar shock and a cylindrical density interface. In the first case (planar normal shock), the axis of the gas cylinder is parallel t…
On the form of the power equation for modeling solar chimney power plant systems
Nima Fathi, Seyed Sobhan Aleyasin, Peter Vorobieff
Recently several mathematical models of a solar chimney power plant were derived, studied for a variety of boundary conditions, and compared against CFD calculations. The importanc…
Comment on "The role of wetting heterogeneities in the meandering instability of a partial wetting rivulet"
Nima Fathi, Keith Mertens, Vakhtang Putkaradze +1
Rivulets and their meandering on a partially wetting surface present an interesting problem, as complex behavior arises from a deceptively simple setup. Recently Couvreur and Daerr…
Shock-driven hydrodynamic instability induced by particle seeding
Peter Vorobieff, Michael Anderson, Joseph Conroy +3
We report an experimental observation of an instability in gas of constant density (air) with an initial non-uniform seeding of small droplets that develops as a planar shock wave…
