In order to predict the dilution characteristics of vertical buoyant jets constrained by lateral obstructions, we propose a new method based on a commonly used machine learning algorithm: the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). By using experi...

Significant environmental effects from the use of marine outfall discharges have led to increased efforts by both regulatory bodies and research groups to minimize the negative impacts of discharges on the receiving water bodies. Understanding the charac...

Rosette-type diffusers are becoming popular nowadays for discharging wastewater effluents. Effluents are known as buoyant jets if they have a lower density than the receiving water, and they are often used for municipal and desalination purposes. These b...

In some outfall systems, wastewaters are discharged into ambient water bodies using rosette-type diffusers in the form of multiple buoyant jets, and it is essential to simulate their mixing characteristics for practical applications and optimal design pu...

The multiport diffuser effluent discharge facilities constructed beneath the coastal waters were simplified in the laboratory as twin buoyant jets in a wavy cross-flow environment. The near-field flow structure of twin jets was studied by series of exper...

A new approach based on the multigene genetic-programming (MGGP) technique is proposed to predict initial dilution of vertical buoyant jets subjected to lateral confinement. The models are trained and tested using experimental data, and the good matches ...

The target of this paper is to measure the modifications that regular waves induce on the geometrical features and dilution of inclined negatively buoyant jets. In order to achieve this aim, we have carried out a set of experiments in a wavemaker-equippe...

Prominent among environmental problems is the pollution of the coastal marine zone as a result of anthropogenic activities. On this point, while studies of jets in still water and in crossflows have been developed in many research centres, studies on jet...

An experimental study was performed to investigate the behavior of inclined negatively buoyant jets. Such jets arise when brine is discharged from desalination plants. A turbulent jet with a specific salinity was discharged through a circular nozzle at a...
