In this paper, we investigate the time-dependent drainage of a thin film of Eyring fluid of variable thickness, flowing down a vertical plate. The exact solutions for the velocity distribution, flow rate, mean thickness, average velocity, vorticity vector, and stress are obtained. Graphical results are presented and discussed for various flow variables like the velocity profile and the variable thickness.

The paper presents the results obtained during the preliminary studies of circular and rectangular ducts before testing the properties elements (elbows, tees, etc.)of rectangular with rounded corners ducts. The fundamental problem of the studies was to determine the flow rate in the ventilation duct. Due to the size of the channel it was decided to determine the flow rate based on the integration of flow velocity over the considered cross-section. This method requires knowledge of the velocity distribution in the cross section. Approximation of the measured actual profile by the classic and modified Prandtl power-law velocity profile was analysed.

To investigate the gas agitation characteristics of side blowing, the fluid flow and mixing phenomenon in a 1:3 scale model ladle of a 150 t industrial gas-stirred ladle with bottom and side plugs were studied by using physical and numerical modelings together. Side blowing enhanced the horizontal flow of water in the model ladle. Compared with bottom blowing, side blowing that is close to the ladle bottom with more than two plugs increases the average velocity of water, which represents the agitation power, improves the uniformity of water velocity distribution, reduces the stagnant region rate, and shortens the mixing time. The mixing time of dual bottom plugs is almost 1.5 times of that of four side plugs at 116 mm under the same flow rate. The mixing time is not only influenced by the agitation power but also by the uniformity of water velocity distribution. Although the agitation power of four side plugs at 450 mm under the flow rate of 1.8 m3/h is about 1.5 times of that at 116 mm with 0.6 m3/h. The mixing time of the 1.8 m3/h flow rate is about 1.2 times of that of the 0.6 m3/h because of the different water velocity distributions.

Abstract An analysis is presented for the action of individual tire tread elements on polished sections of pavement covered by thin fluid films. Tread element flexibility, wheel slip, and time-dependent loading are incorporated. The effect of the lateral expansion of tread elements on groove closure is also studied.

The magnetic field hz of a moving Pearl vortex in a superconducting thin-film in (x,y) plane is studied with the help of the time-dependent London equation. It is found that for a vortex at the origin moving in +x direction, hz(x,y) is suppressed in front of the vortex, x>0, and enhanced behind (x<0). The distribution asymmetry is proportional to the velocity and to the conductivity of normal quasiparticles. The vortex self-energy and the interaction of two moving vortices are evaluated.

We study some dynamical properties of a classical time-dependent elliptical billiard. We consider periodically moving boundary and collisions between the particle and the boundary are assumed to be elastic. Our results confirm that although the static elliptical billiard is an integrable system, after introducing time-dependent perturbation on the boundary the unlimited energy growth is observed. The behavior of the average velocity is described using scaling arguments.

When a vessel of liquid has been emptied and put aside, a thin film of liquid clings to the inside and gradually drains down to the bottom under the action of gravity. The layer being thin, the motion is very nearly laminar flow, and the curvature of the surface in a horizontal direction may be ignored. Thus the problem for a cylindrical vessel is reducible to that of a wet plate standing vertically.

In the technical practice, it is often necessary to measure or control the fluid flow rate in pipelines and channels. The velocity-area method requires a number of meters located at specified points in a suitable cross-section of closed conduits. Simultaneous measurements of local mean velocity with the meters are integrated over the gauging section to provide the discharge. In this paper, three approaches of this method are applied on a rectangular closed conduit to determine the air flow rate with integration techniques used to compute the discharge assume velocity distributions that closely approximate known laws, especially in the neighborhood of solid boundaries. For this purpose, meters for velocity were 7 Pitot tubes placed vertically in predefined measurement points covering the conduit height, and moved horizontally along the conduit width. The position of the Pitot tubes along the conduit width was monitored and controlled by a linear displacement transducer. Pressure is measured using digital sensors. The first technique for determination of air flow rate is on basis of fixed (stopping) measuring points across the conduit width as averaged values of local velocity, the second one is semi continual measurement of velocity profile by applying interpolation between the average local velocity on fixed (stopping) points and measured velocity in the movement between two positions, and the third is by continuously moving the Pitot tubes without stopping. The results of the three techniques are calculated and presented using different types of software. Considering the last technique, comparison of results is made applying different movement speeds of the Pitot tubes in order to examine their influence on the velocity profile.
