Direct numerical simulation of detonation–turbulence interaction in hydrogen/oxygen/argon mixtures with a detailed chemistry

Direct numerical simulation of detonation–turbulence interaction in hydrogen/oxygen/argon mixtures with a detailed chemistry

Physics of Fluids, Volume HFDP2022, Issue 1, April 2023. Direct numerical simulation is conducted to address the detonation–turbulence interaction in a stoichiometric hydrogen/oxygen/argon mixture. The argon dilution rate is varied so that the mixture …

Large eddy simulation of shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction under incipient and fully separated conditions

Large eddy simulation of shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction under incipient and fully separated conditions

Physics of Fluids, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2023. Large eddy simulations of shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction on a compression ramp at the Mach number [math] and Reynolds number [math] are performed to investigate the impact of the incip…

Experimental and numerical investigations of effects of ship superstructures on wind-induced loads for benchmarking

Experimental and numerical investigations of effects of ship superstructures on wind-induced loads for benchmarking

Physics of Fluids, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2023. For a representative large modern containership, the effects of a deck container arrangement on the wind-induced loads were systematically investigated using physical model tests and numerical computat…

Phase-locked measurements of linear and weakly nonlinear interfacial waves in a stratified turbulent gas–liquid pipe flow

Phase-locked measurements of linear and weakly nonlinear interfacial waves in a stratified turbulent gas–liquid pipe flow

Physics of Fluids, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2023. The present work reports an experimental characterization of linear and weakly nonlinear interfacial waves in a stratified air–water horizontal pipe flow. An oscillating paddle was employed to generate…

An analytical double-Gaussian wake model of ducted horizontal-axis tidal turbine

An analytical double-Gaussian wake model of ducted horizontal-axis tidal turbine

Physics of Fluids, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2023. The wake development of a tidal turbine should be fully considered in the array arrangement. There are many studies on wake characteristics, mainly focusing on a conventional horizontal-axis turbine, w…

Comparing classical electrodynamic theories predicting deformation of a water droplet in a tightly focused Gaussian beam

Comparing classical electrodynamic theories predicting deformation of a water droplet in a tightly focused Gaussian beam

Physics of Fluids, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2023. Optical forces are used to accelerate and trap water droplets in applications such as remote spectroscopy and noninvasive surgery. However, the microscopic deformation of droplets is difficult to predi…
