Automotive fans, small wind turbines, and manned and unmanned aerial vehicles (MAVs/UAVs) are just a few examples in which noise generated by the flow?s interaction with aerodynamic surfaces is a major concern. The current work shows the potential of a n...

Typically installed in a rotor-only configuration, low-pressure axial fans discharge directly into a free atmosphere and the discharge shows a strong swirl component. Since such designs, without guide vanes, cannot convert the dynamic pressure in the swi...

A problem with 1-D water hammer modelling is in the application of accurate unsteady friction. Moreover, investigating the time response of fluid dynamics and unsteady turbulence structures during the water hammer is not possible with a 1-D model. This r...
