AGRICULTURAL SPRAYS IN NON-UNIFORM CROSS-FLOW
… a Phase-Doppler Particle Analyzer. A sheared cross flow pattern, having lower velocities near the wind tunnel floor and increasing velocities with increasing distance towards the wind tunnel roof was used. The nozzle was located in the region of high shear. The study was conducted in four …

The cross-flow chromatographic separation of carbohydrate mixtures
Reviews are given of the theoretical aspects of chromatography and of continuous chromatographic techniques. A pilot-scale rotating annular chromatograph has been constructed consisting of two concentric cylinders which form an annulus 1.4m in length and 12mm wide. The annular space is filled with …

Cross-flow ceramic microfiltration of ethanol fermentation broths
… of this research was to optimize the ceramic cross-flow microfiltration of ethanol fermentation broths. The ceramic membranes from three different manufacturers were made of $\alpha$-alumina with pore sizes of 0.05 $\mu$m-1.4 $\mu$m. Water permeabilities for the 0.2 $\mu$m Ceraver, Ceraflo and …

The turbulent structure of the jet in cross-flow
In this thesis the structure of the jet in cross flow in the far field was investigated experimentally using time-resolved, multi-scale and statistically independent Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry measurements to reveal the mean and instantaneous three-dimensional (3D) structures. All of …

Experimental determination of blade forces in a cross-flow turbine
A cross-flow turbine was tested to determine the magnitude of the fluid forces on the blades. The tangential and radial forces and the torque were measured on a test blade. Because the runner was made of plexiglas, the flow and the effects of the incidence angle at various speeds were observed. The …

Evaporating cross flow spray jets in gas-solid circulating fluidized bed
Three-phase flow of solid-gas suspension with liquid spray is found in many industrial applications, including fluidized catalytic cracking in petroleum refinery process, and wet scrubbing process. This dissertation study is aimed to understand the gas-solid-liquid three-phase flow structure, phase …

Viability of Cross-Flow Fan for Vertical Take-Off and Landing Aircraft
… design that, when paired with an off-the-shelf cross-flow fan rotor, will generate a trust-to-weight ratio significant enough to allow for vertical take-off. The commercial computational fluid dynamics software, ANSYS CFX, was used to perform a computational analysis of various housing designs …

Flow characteristics and acoustic resonance excitation of finned cylinders in cross-flow
The flow characteristics and acoustic resonance excitation of bare and finned cylinders of different arrangements in cross-flow were experimentally investigated. In the design phase of finned tube heat exchangers, finned cylinders are treated as bare cylinders with a diameter equivalent to their …

Experimental Investigations into the Fluid Dynamics and Forcing Underlying Cross-flow Turbine Operation
Within the wind and marine energy sectors, axial-flow (i.e., horizontal axis) turbines are a well-established and well-understood approach to converting the kinetic energy in a moving fluid to electricity. Recent cross-flow (i.e., vertical axis) turbine research has yielded substantial performance …

Parametric investigation of flow-sound interaction mechanism of circular cylinders in cross-flow
Flow-excited acoustic resonance in heat exchangers has been an ongoing issue for the past century. The main challenge in this issue, is in the actual prediction of the resonance occurrence. This is due to the complexity of the flow-sound interaction mechanism that takes place between the packed …
