(Proceedings of FEDSM2009 ASME 2009 Fluids Engineering Division Summer Meeting August 2-5, 2009, Vail, Colorado USA, 2009-08-02)Flows in rivers, floodplains and coastal zones are very complex due to uneven bottom topography and irregular boundaries of the flow domain. In particular, when the flow shows strong gradients in water depth and velocity ...
-
(2010)The research consisted in a conceptual and basic design of a prototype Stirling engine with the purpose of taking advantage of the solar radiation to produce electric energy. The work began with a bibliography review ...
-
(2010)In this study the verification and validation of a 2nd order turbulence closure model is performed for an experimental compound channel flow, where the velocity field was measured by a Laser Doppler Velocimeter. Detailed ...
-
(2010)In this study a comparison of three turbulence closure models (two isotropic and one anisotropic) with experimental data is performed. The interaction between the main channel (MC) flow and the floodplain (FP) generates a ...
