Drag reduction regimes in air lubrication
Lina Nikolaidou, Ali R Khojasteh, Angeliki Laskari +2
Air lubrication regimes were studied using simultaneous drag force measurements and multi-plane imaging to characterize the regimes and identify the governing mechanisms of drag re…
Flow Characterization of the Delft Multiphase Flow Tunnel
Lina Nikolaidou, Angeliki Laskari, Tom van Terwisga +1
At the end of 2020, a new cavitation tunnel was commissioned at the Ship Hydrodynamics laboratory of TU Delft, replacing its 1960s predecessor. Since this was a new facility, a flo…
Segmenting the Complex and Irregular in Two-Phase Flows: A Real-World Empirical Study with SAM2
Semanur Küçük, Cosimo Della Santina, Angeliki Laskari
Segmenting gas bubbles in multiphase flows is a critical yet unsolved challenge in numerous industrial settings, from metallurgical processing to maritime drag reduction. Tradition…
Turbulent boundary development over an air cavity
Abhirath Anand, Lina Nikolaidou, Christian Poelma +1
The turbulent boundary layer (TBL) development over an air cavity is experimentally studied using planar particle image velocimetry. The present flow, representative of those typic…
