    INTRODUCTION TO DELTA WING: The with Planform area in the shape of a Triangle is called a Delta wing. Supersonic flow is completely different from subsonic flow in many respects. Such differences impact the design philosophy of aircrafts for supersonic flights in comparison to subsonic flight aircrafts. Our study deals with the design and subsonic flow over a delta wing. Supersonic aircrafts usually have highly swept wings. A special case of that with triangular planform is called a delta wing. Though

    But, in case of cardiovascular disease when there is an inefficient non-physiological flow, the blood flow vorticity may change. Such as, in ASD, the vortex rotation tends to be in the opposite direction than normal which causes increased dissipation of energy. Thus, such kind of hemodynamic observations greatly assist in the evaluation of different heart conditions

    Section 2: Results based on high horizontal resolution IR and microwave data Figure 2 shows the radially averaged horizontal temperature structure in TCs inferred from AMSU-A data at first LMI with a horizontal resolution of ~70 km and a vertical resolution of ~1-3 km. Anomalies are with respect to the temperature observed at 600 km away from storm center at each height. The UT warming bulges upward near storm center where the convective activity is strongest. Relative to the chosen background, the

    Experimental To be competitive as renewable energy recourse turbines in wave energy generation must be robust and economical for a number of years. Approaches utilize experiments to characterize and predict the effect of parameters involved. One of which is advancements to turbine blades due to unsteady hydrodynamic loads. Characterizing these loads can determine their fatigue life and determine a more reliable material to be used for manufacturing the blades avoiding premature failure. Reliability

    There are a large number of literatures available on the study conducted to improve the working of wind turbines. Some of these researches have been implemented practically while others are still in experimental phase. A literature was prepared by Md. Mahfouz Sarwar, Nazia Nawshin, Muhammad Ali Imam and Mohammad Mashudon on “A new approach to improve the performance of an existing small wind turbine by using Diffuser.” They have studied the improved effect of diffuser on the performance of a small

    Deforestation is defined in the dictionary as the “removal of a forest or stand of trees where the land is converted to a non forest use.” Common examples of deforestation include turning forestland to farms, ranches, or for urban use such as malls and housing. Forests still cover about thirty percent of the world’s land area, but according to National Geographic, “swaths the size of Panama are lost each and every year.” The world’s rain forests could completely vanish in a hundred years at the current

    Hurricane Irene affected the Caribbean and much of the United States' east coast and was one of the most damaging tropical cyclones of the 2011 Atlantic tropical cyclone season. Irene originated east of the Lesser Antilles from a well defined Atlantic tropical wave in that area, and became Tropical Storm Irene on August 20, 2011. Irene reached its highest point as a 120 mph Category 3 hurricane. Irene was ranked the seventh costliest hurricane with damages that cost around $15.6 billion in the

    While there is certainly much left to be explained and understood in the field of fluid dynamics, there is still a certain level of common sense that one has concerning what one would consider to be “ordinary” fluids, such as water. It makes sense that such fluids, say, take the shape of their containers, or tend to flow down an inclined plane, or proceed with the same mass flow rate given that the fluid does not build up along the flow channel. Likewise, with solids, there are certain, seemingly

    2-D Numerical Analysis of Various Turbulence Models in CFD for External Flow over a Cylinder Tharikaa Ramesh kumar Graduate Student, Aerospace Engineering, Auburn University, Auburn, AL, USA The effects of turbulence on a flow can be predicted by Turbulence modeling in Computational Fluid Dynamics. Numerous turbulence models have been developed over the time and are used for envisioning the characteristics of the flow in different flow regimes in terms of time-averaged quantities for both internal
