Flow visualization have been performed to study the flow along a square cylinder placed perpendicularly to the main flow. Two different attack angles have been considered (a  = 0 and a  = 45 degrees), for Reynolds numbers up to 300. The experimental facilities are composed by a water tunnel of low turbulence intensity and an apparatus for a flow visualization, image capture and processing. A direct dye injection visualization technique has been employed and the images have been captured on two different media, photo-sensible chemical film and video tape with the help of a modern three CCD video camera. Strouhal numbers have been determined by video tape image analysis by frames counting. A sequence of images is shown for a  = 0 from which the vortices formation and shedding can be seen.

Keywords: Square cylinder; Strouhal number; flow visualization; water tunnel; image processing; cilindro quadrado; número de Strouhal; visualização de escoamento; túnel hidrodinâmico; processamento de imagem.

Since von Kármán’s studies of vortex propagation, vortex streets in wakes of bluff bodies have become a subject of interest to engineers and scientists, producing a great number of experimental vortex velocity measurements. In this work, hydrodynamic flow visualization, by direct dye injection technique, has been employed in order to determine the frequency and propagation speed of vortices shed from circular cylinders in the Reynolds number range up to 600. The experimental procedure consisted on changing the Reynolds number of the flow and evaluating the distance between two vortices on a same row from static images captured on negative film by a SLR camera and determining the Strouhal number from images recorded with a 3 CCD video camera. From the distance and the corresponding Strouhal number, vortex velocity against Reynolds numbers have been calculated and depicted. Results regarding the Strouhal number obtained compared well with literature.

This paper presents the experimental analysis of the propagation of a disturbance with a fixed frequency, generated, by means of an obstacle, in the incidence velocity of the cross flow through a tube bank and its influence on the pressure and velocity fluctuations inside the bank. The tube bank investigated had square arrangement and aspect ratio P/D = 1.60 and air was the working fluid. Measurements were performed with hot wires and pressure transducers. Behavior of fluctuating quantities is described by means of autospectral density functions and the propagation of the disturbance is discussed based on the analysis of cross-correlation functions. The results show that the frequency of the disturbance remains unchanged as it passes through the bank, in spite of the high turbulence intensities and of the fact that flow velocity inside the bank varies with the position. This fact may indicate that external excitations can be transferred to the solid boundaries of the bank.

This paper presents the experimental study of the turbulent flow in a curved duct which simulates part of a thermal-electrical power plant. Ashes, carried in the power plant by the flow of gases from the furnace, impinge on the pipes of the heat exchanger, which pre-heat water prior of the steam generator, after passing a curved duct, and produce erosion of the pipes of the heat exchanger, leading to failures which stop plant operation. Flow distribution after the curve increase the erosion near the concave wall of the duct. Classical solutions for flow redistribution in curves, like vanes, are not applicable since they could increase operational risks due to the erosion of the vanes. This problem was investigated in a scale model of the curved duct, with, for simplicity, air as the working fluid. Flow visualizations with wool threads on the duct wall, Pitot tube and hot wire measurements were applied. Based on the results, modifications in the test section were made, using boundary-layer control techniques. The results show that flow redistribution after the curve was improved, and the modifications, when implemented in the plant, may lead to safer and economical operation conditions.

One of the great problem for measuring flow field properties, such as velocity and vorticity, using an intrusive or nonintrusive techniques, is the time consuming. Hot-Wire (HW) and Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV), apart from their advantages and disadvantages, demand great effort and care for measuring extensive flow field. Highly unsteady flow is another type of problem not solved when using HW or LDV because both are local velocity techniques, that is, resolving the velocity field at each point at a time. Measuring flow properties having spatial and temporal information is now possible due to new techniques appearing since the great development achieved by the laser technology and the fast digital processors. Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is one emerging technology with the proposal of solving part of these measuring flow field problems. The paper describes two developing methodologies for measuring low and fast velocities inside an extensive field flow of a tundish model used in metallurgical process.

The work describes the design of a prototype eight-stages cascade impactor, capable of classifying airborne particles with sizes in the range of aerodynamic diameters between 17 and 0.5 microns, while operating with a nominal flow rate of 30 liters/minute. A summary of the theory involved in the project of such devices is also presented. The collection surfaces accommodate 37 mm substrates which may be of different materials (e.g. filter media, aluminum foil), depending on the application of interest. The design is optimized for reducing inter-stage particulate losses, and the instrument may be used in the separation of inhalable PM10 particulate (Particulate Matter 10 microns cut off size). It is also flexible enough for permitting the operation with different sets of nozzle diameters, accepting a diverse selection of cut off sizes.

Motivated by the role played by vortex rings in the turbulent mixing processes, the present work investigates the stability and evolution of a single vortex ring. A new classification is proposed for vortex rings, which is based on extensive hot-wire measurement of velocities in the vortex core and wake, and on flow visualization. Vortex rings may be classified as laminar, wavy, turbulence-producing, and turbulent.

In this paper, a theoretical and experimental study of the impact of the exhausted gas produced by a 2N hydrazine thruster is presented, simulating the thermal conditions attained in space during the operation of a spacecraft propulsion system used for orbit control. For this purpose, two different configurations were examined, either in continuous and pulsed firing regimes. The first configuration consisted of a set of small aluminum plates placed perpendicular to the plume flow field, in order to have a direct measurement of the heat load on a surface whose normal is aligned with the incident molecular flow field. The second configuration consisted in a fiberglass-epoxy boom placed near the thruster and parallel to its axis, representing a possible configuration for SAC-C (Satélite Argentino de Aplicaciones Científicas). The boom, when deployed, extends into the area of the flow field of the thrusters used for orbit control and may be subjected to high heat loads during the firing.

In this paper is proposed and tested the use of a non-intrusive ultrasonic transmission technique for the measurement of the thickness of a liquid film flowing along a solid wall. The physical principles, as well as the experimental procedures for the method are presented. The tests were performed measuring film thickness inside a cylindrical chamber in which a liquid was tangentially injected, causing a film of liquid containing certain quantities of dissolved gas bubbles to rotate along the wall. The technique was tested using water, and the results were compared with values measured with an electric impedance sensor. In general, there was a good agreement between the values obtained from both methods, though there is a systematic difference due to the fact that the electric sensor is able to measure film thickness almost locally, while the ultrasonic technique averages the values over a larger region. The ultrasonic technique was also tested with a higher viscosity liquid, obtained by adding corn syrup to the water, for which the electric sensor was unable to measure. In this case, the results were compared to an analytical model, which was verified for the previous measurements with water. The results also showed good agreement.

The objective of this work is to present a determination of a value for the overall heat transfer coefficient to be able to simulate the heating during the braking process in 33 inch ( 838 mm) railroad wheels. To achieve this objective it was necessary to design and construct a full scale dynamometer to reproduce the most commom braking conditions found in railway operation. The variations in brake power and temperature were measured during standardized tests and were compared to the results obtained from a finite element numerical simulation. Many trial simulations were realized in orde to achieve better agreement betwen the numerical predictions and the experimental results. A value of 25 W/m 2 o C was found for the overall heat transfer coefficient when used with 80% of the total generated friction power. The results of this work are important to determine the thermal stresses in railway wheels during braking and this represents the major aim of the Railway Laboratory of the State University of Campinas.

In the present paper is showed an experimental study. The main object of this study is to improve the microwave power absorption by the water in a resonant cavity. This cavity has a cylindrical geometry and contains a glass (Pyrex) tube in its longitudinal position. Distilled water flows through this tube. The following parameters were varied: water flow mass, glass tubes diameters and the screws position (disturbances) inside the cavity. The results show a strong influence of those parameters about the absorbed power by the water. In this way, it is possible to obtain a situation for the maximum microwave power transferred to the water.

This paper presents a theoretical and experimental study and introduces a mathematical model for a Vortex tube on steady state operation. The internal swirling flow is modeled by a set of ordinary differential equations that are integrated along the radial direction. Experimental temperature measurements from a Vortex tube built in the laboratory are compared to numerical results obtained with the theoretical model, with good qualitative agreement. The temperature variation with respect to the inlet fluid temperature along the radial direction is understood as a result of the distribution of the kinetic energy through the swirling flow, i.e., temperature increase in the periphery and decrease in the core. The theoretical estimation of the flow reversal at the Vortex tube axis agrees well with the internal swirling flow results of Armfield and Fletcher (1991).
