There are two main types of fluid flow - laminar flow, in which the fluid flows smoothly in layers, and turbulent flow, which ...

The flow patterns never repeat themselves. To convince yourself of this watch a smoke stack for a few minutes. Fluid flow that is slow tends to be laminar. As it speeds up a transition occurs and it ...

points 1 and 2 lie on a streamline, the fluid has constant density, the flow is steady, and there is no friction. Although these restrictions sound severe, the Bernoulli equation is very useful, ...

where structured packings in cooling towers must be designed to encourage droplet formation in fluid flow but coatings mixed to maintain a pristine, smooth surface. Furthermore, the design of ...

Whether it’s rivers cutting through earth, lava melting through rock, or water slicing through ice, channels all twist and ...

Department of Mechanical Science and Engineering Professor Kyle Smith and his team have developed a new desalination device ...

The Vortab Company’s product line of inline and insertion type flow conditioners nearly eliminates the upstream straight pipe ...

Made on a rolling basis. Students take two required courses (Computational Fluids Engineering and Computational Fluid Dynamics for Engineering, each 3 credits) Students select one 3-credit elective ...

This technology is a wall shear stress sensor for measuring the shear stress due to fluid flow over a test surface. The wall shear stress sensor is comprised of a wall shear stress sensor body and an ...

Researchers found that peristaltic pump flow mechanically breaks supersaturation to induce amyloid formation by hen egg white lysozyme, a-synuclein, amyloid b 1-40, and b2-microglobulin. The high ...
