Experimental investigations were conducted to uncover the impact of cavitation control?through the use of biomimetic riblets on cavitating flows around a circular cylinder. First, the dynamics of cavitation in the flow behind a finite cylinder (without r...

The high curvature of modern S-ducts causes a strong secondary flow, which seriously affects the uniformity of the compressor inlet flow. In this study, the flow control method of a pulsed jet was applied in the S-duct at an incoming Mach number of 0.4. ...

Vortex generators (VGs) are a passive method by which to alleviate boundary layer separation (BLS). The device-induced streamwise vortices propagate downstream. There is then lift-off from the surface and the vortex decays. The effectiveness of VGs depen...

During the early design stage of an underwater vehicle, the correct assessment of its manoeuvrability is a crucial task. Conducting experimental tests still has high costs, especially when dealing with small vehicles characterized by low available budget...

Film cooling enhancement by incorporating an upstream sand-dune-shaped ramp (SDSR) to the film hole exit was numerically investigated on a flat plate under typical blowing ratios ranging from 0.5 to 1.5. Three heights of SDSRs were designed: 0.25D, 0.5D,...
