Role of secondary circulation on bank erosion in a large amplitude meandering laboratory channel
2009
This paper reports peculiar results of experimental investigation on the evolution of flow secondary circulation motion along a meander wave. The experiments have been conducted in a large amplitude meandering laboratory channel for two values of the width-to-depth ratio. Attention is focalised on how secondary motion affects the bank shear stress distribution, influencing the bank stability. The analysis essentially highlights that, especially for small width-to-depth ratio, as the channel curvature increases besides the classical central-region secondary circulation cell a counter-rotating circulation cell forms in the outer-bank region. Such counterrotating circulation cell allows to obt…
Drops moving in flow with chernical reaction
1994
We propose a free boundary model described by coupled Navier-Stokes and chemical reaction equations with discontinuous coefRcients to simulate the chemical re- ¿ctions in viscous drops moving in a viscous incompressible ûuid. Approximation of the solution by a special ñnite element method (FEM) with a method of mapping is discussed. Several numerical resulùs åre presented.

X-ray computed tomography and numerical analysis of water-saturated porous materials
2012
A method for imaging a water-saturated porous material is developed in order to simulate a fluid flow through it using the Lattice Boltzmann method. The value of its flow permeability is compared to the value for the same sample when it is dry. An explanation for the difference in the experimental values of permeability for air and water is sought. A reference is given by experimental values from flow measurements that are interpreted according to Darcy's law of permeability.
EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE FLUID FLOWIN THE CONDUCTS
2018
Fluids are high mobility environments that, under the action of external forces, are continuously and irreversibly deformed. The flow of fluid through a pipe is ensured by a pressure difference between its ends. The presented paper aims to experimentally determine the velocity profile of flowing a Newtonian fluid through a circular section pipe by measuring the local speed at five points on the pipe radius.
Ultrasonic characterisation of poroux materials
2017
International audience; Acoustic models of the acoustics of porous and perforated media involve a set of physical parameters. Some of the parameters, the tortusity, the viscous and thermal characteristic lengths are defined for a perfect incompressible and inviscid fluid saturating the porous medium. It is shown that ultrasonic propagation in air-saturated materials can be used to determine these parameters. A basic method involving air-coupled ultrasonic transducers is presented. Variants of this method and a practical implementation of one of these is proposed.
Stability of moving viscoelastic panels interacting with surrounding fluid
2012
We study a model describing the out-of-plane vibrations of an axially moving viscoelastic panel submerged in flowing fluid. The panel is assumed to travel at a constant velocity between two fixed supports, and it is modeled as a flat panel made of viscoelastic Kelvin-Voigt material. The fluid flow is modeled with the help of the added mass coefficients. The resulting dynamic equation is a partial differential equation of fifth order in space. Five boundary conditions are set for the studied problem. The behavior of the panel is analyzed with the help of its eigenvalues (eigenfrequencies). These characteristics are studied with respect to the velocity of the panel. In our study, we have incl…

The features of the sorting junction. Pressure balancer helps to equilibrate the pressure difference created by the presence of a droplet. The transition from shallow to deep channel mediates the transition from free to confined regime. The droplets are separated in the sorting junction according to the flow rate ratio.
Waves Propagation in Superfluid Helium in Presence of Combined Rotation and Counterflow
2008
Using the linear macroscopic mono-fluid model of liquid helium II, in which the fundamental fields are the density ?, the velocity v, the temperature T and heat flux q and taking into account the expression of an additional pressure tensor P(w), introduced to describe phenomena linked to vortices, a complete study of wave propagation is made in the complex situation involving thermal counterflow in a rotating cylinder.

A comparation of two sorting strategies. While the shallow channel guides the droplets more precisely to the sorting point, the confined droplets are more vulnerable to coalescence and break-up. The deep channel lowers the positioning precision, however, the droplets are more stable.
