For years the very flow visualization has been an important tool to aid the understanding of the phenomenology of the behavior of fluids. Thus the present study was used water as a working fluid in a hydrodynamic tunnel vertical, and experimental techniques for the visualization, liquid dyes were used to generate qualitative information regarding t...

Context 1
... this context, this paper proposes to evaluate the behavior of a Newtonian fluid flowing in steady state, in a rectangular channel with three lumps, illustrated in Fig. 1, where the arrow indicates the direction of flow of the fluid and the gray color is the solid region. The area is isolated and no mass flow in horizontal walls of Fig. 1, with only flow in vertical walls (input and output). The flow is incompressible, isothermal and steady state occurs. This study was through the visualization ...

The flow of lubricating greases in an elbow channel has been modeled and validated with velocity profiles from flow visualizations using micro-particle image velocimetry. The elbow geometry induces a nonsymmetric distribution of shear stress throughout its cross section, as well as varying shear rates through the transition from the elbow inlet to...

A novel setup for flow visualizations and turbulence measurements in rotating high-aspect-ratio ducts is presented. Results from 3-component SPIV measurements show the significant effect of system rotation both on the mean flow and on the turbulence statistics in a clear chan-nel. Combined 2-component PIV measurements allow detailed studies on mass...

The generation of tones from a NACA 0012 airfoil at zero angle of attack and Reynolds numbers of 50,000 to 150,000 was investigated using acoustic beamforming and surface flow visualization techniques in an anechoic wind tunnel. Boundary layer separation lengths were obtained using surface flow visualization techniques and XFOIL software and were i...

The aim of this experimental study is to investigate the mass flow rate of the lubricating oil in a hermetic reciprocating compressor. Essential parameters affecting the performance of the lubrication are the rotational speed of the crankshaft, the viscosity of the oil, the operating temperature and the submersion depth of the crankshaft. An experi...

Magnetic resonance velocimetry (MRV) is a versatile flow visualization technique using magnetic resonance imaging machine developed for the medical purpose. Recently, MRV is often utilized to analyze engineering flows due to its superior features of MRV such as capabilities of measuring flows with complicated, opaque flow geometry unlike optical te...
