Advection-diffusion in inertial flow through periodically converging-diverging tubes

Creator:

Lambert, Adam

Abstract:

A direct numerical simulation of advection-diffusion in a sinusoidal tube was carried out using the commercial ﬁnite-volume code STAR-CD. The Reynolds numbers varied from Re = 0.1 to Re = 14.5. At the larger Reynolds numbers, steady-state eddies formed in the diverging sections and significantly inﬂuenced the macroscale dispersion. Long...
