Single-Phase Crossflow Mixing in a Vertical Tube Bundle Geometry: An Experimental Study

The vertical rod/tube bundle geometry has a wide variety of industrial applications. Typical examples are the core of light water nuclear reactors (LWR) and vertical tube steam generators. In the core of a LWR, primarily coolant flows upward but their also exist a flow in lateral direction, called crossflow, in the gaps in between the sub...

Influence of Coriolis forces on the dynamic of a turbulent jet

The influence of Coriolis forces is studied under realistic conditions on a jet in atmospheric medium. Under the Boussinesq approximation, the relative thickness of the jet defines a small parameter in the flow. This parameter governs the asymptotic expansion of the analysis. Using a linear spectral approach, two-point closure correlation...
