1. A Statistical Dynamic Model for the Turbulent Transport of Kinetic Energy in Shear Layers
ABSTRACT: Dynamic statistical equations for the turbulent fluxes of scalars and momentum in incompressible flows are derived after time wise integration of the equation for the oscillating transported property, decomposing the turbulent fluxes in terms representing distinct features of the main and fluctuating flow that influence the respective turbulent tra

2. Numerical Study of Wake Characteristics in a Horizontal-Axis Hydrokinetic Turbine
ABSTRACT Over the years most studies on wake characteristics have been devoted to wind turbines, while few works are related to hydrokinetic turbines. Among studies applied to rivers, depth and width are important parameters for a suitable design. In this work, a numerical study of the wake in a horizontal-axis hydrokinetic turbine is performed, where the ma

3. LARGE EDDY SIMULATION COMBINED WITH EQUIVALENT DIAMETER FOR TURBULENT JET MODELLING AND GAS DISPERSION
Abstract CFD modelling combines transport phenomena and numerical approaches to solve physical problems. Although numerical modelling of flow scenarios is the cutting edge of flow modelling, there seems to be room for improvement. This paper proposes an approach for jet modelling in a low Mach number computational code. The methodology is based on the equiva

4. Caracterização do escoamento no limite de mobilização de um leito granular cisalhado por um fluido / Caracterization of a turbulent liquid flow by the bed-load transport of granular matter
O transporte de grãos por um fluido em escoamento é frequentemente encontrado na natureza e na indústria. Está presente, por exemplo, na erosão das margens de rios, na migração de dunas no deserto e no transporte de areia em dutos. O mecanismo de transporte se dá através da transferência da quantidade de movimento do fluido para os grãos. Quando a

5. Determining the viscous behavior of non-Newtonian fluids in a flume using a laminar sheet flow model and Ultrasonic Velocity Profiling (UVP) system
The flow of non-Newtonian fluids in rectangular open channels has received renewed interest over the past number of years especially as large flumes are being used to transport tailings in countries like Chile. The effect of yield stress on the flow behavior is complex and not yet fully understood. The Ultrasonic Velocity Profiling (UVP) technique has been u

6. PARAMETRIZAÇÃO DO TRANSPORTE DE ENERGIA CINÉTICA TURBULENTA NA CAMADA LIMITE CONVECTIVA / PARAMETERIZATION FOR THE TURBULENT KINETIC ENERGY TRANSPORT IN THE CONVECTIVE BOUNDARY LAYER
Neste trabalho, uma parametrização para os termos de transporte da equação de balanço de energia cinética turbulenta (ECT), válida para uma camada limite convectiva (CLC), é apresentada. Esta é uma tarefa complicada de ser realizada a partir de dados experimentais, especialmente devido a dificuldade associada às medidas das flutuações de pressão

7. Análise da influência de impelidores laterais no tempo de mistura em tanques de estocagem de diesel com o uso da fluidodinâmica computacional / Analysis of the influence of side-entry mixers on the mixing time in diesel storage vessels using computational fluid dynamics
The homogenization process of hydrocarbons in large scale storage tanks equipped with side-entry impellers plays an important role in a refinery operation, since the quality of the final products depends on the performance of this process. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the most viable technique to evaluate and to optimize this process, as experimenta

8. Observação do transporte de sedimentos em suspensão ao longo do Canal Norte do rio Amazonas durante condições de baixa descarga (outubro 2008) / Observation of suspended sediment transport along North Channel of Amazon river during low discharge (October 2008)
The Amazon river, located in northernBrazil, discharges between 80,000 and 250,000 m3s-1 of water onto the adjacent shelf, creating a plume of brackish water that extends hundreds of kilometers away from the river mouth. This river also carries a large amount of fine sediments to the ocean where fluid mud has been found in the topset and upper foreset layers

9. Nonlinear instabilities on a granular bed sheared by a turbulent liquid flow
The granular media is of great importance in our quotidian, and their transport by a fluid flow is frequently found in nature and in industry. When the shear stresses exerted by the fluid flow on a granular bed are bounded to some limits, a mobile granular layer known as bed-load takes place in which the grains stay in contact with the fixed part of the gran

10. Analysis of energy fluxes and vegetation-atmosphere parameters in irrigated and natural ecosystems of semi-arid Brazil.
Knowledge on evapotranspiration is essential in quantifying water use depletion and to allocate scarce water resources to competing uses. Despite that an extensive literature describes the theoretical mechanisms of turbulent water vapour transport above and within crop canopies fewer studies have examined land surface parameters within composite landscapes o

11. Initial instabilities of a granular bed sheared by a turbulent liquid flow: length-scale determination
The transport of granular matter by a fluid flow is frequently found in nature and in industry. When the shear stresses exerted by the fluid flow on a granular bed are bounded to some limits, a mobile granular layer known as bed-load takes place, in which the grainsstay in contact with the fixed part of the granular bed. Under these conditions, an initiallyf

12. VARIAÇÃO SAZONAL DA ACUMULAÇÃO E FLUXO NOTURNOS DE ESCALARES EM UMA PASTAGEM NA REGIÃO AMAZÔNICA / SEASONAL VARIATION OF SCALAR NOCTURNAL ACCUMULATION AND FLUXES OVER A PASTURE IN AMAZONIA
Carbon dioxide and Radon nocturnal vertical accumulations over a pasture site at the Amazon region are investigated. The site is characterized by a strong thermal stability along the night, which is responsible for suppressing a good portion of the local turbulent mixing. Therefore, it is problematic to use techniques such as the eddy covariance for estimati
