LES of Droplet Impingement: Application to Clean and Laser-Scanned Ice Shapes
Federico Zabaleta, Brett Bornhoft, Suhas S. Jain +2
The prediction of aircraft icing is conventionally performed using multishot simulation frameworks that fail to predict the progressive roughening of the ice surface. To understand…

Laminar-to-Turbulent Transition of Yield-Stress Fluids in Pipe and Channel Flows
Shivam Prajapati, Prasoon Suchandra, Vivek Kumar +3
We present direct numerical simulations (DNS) of laminar to turbulent transition in Herschel-Bulkley (HB) yield-stress fluids flowing through pipes and rectangular channels. The si…

Large eddy simulations of conjugate heat transfer in boundary layers over laser-scanned ice roughness
Federico Zabaleta, Brett Bornhoft, Suhas S. Jain +2
Accurate modeling of ice accretion is important for safe and efficient design of aircraft and wind turbine systems. Heat transfer predictions obtained from fluid flow solvers are u…
