A simple eddy viscosity formulation for turbulent boundary layers near smooth walls
Rafik Absi
The aim of this study is to improve the prediction of near-wall mean streamwise velocity profile by using a simple method. The profile is obtained by solving the moment…
An ordinary differential equation for velocity distribution and dip-phenomenon in open channel flows
Rafik Absi
An ordinary differential equation for velocity distribution in open channel flows is presented based on an analysis of the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations and a log-wake…
Numerical simulations of heat transfer in plane channel flow
Najla El Gharbi, Rafik Absi, Ahmed Benzaoui
Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence models (such as k-εmodels) are still widely used for engineering applications because of their relatively simplicity and robustnes…
Concentration profiles for fine and coarse sediments suspended by waves over ripples: An analytical study with the 1-DV gradient diffusion model
Rafik Absi
Field and laboratory measurements of suspended sediments over wave ripples show, for time-averaged concentration profiles in semi-log plots, a contrast between upward convex profil…
