The turbulent mixing of hot and cold fluids in a T-junction filled with a porous medium
composed of stainless steel spherical particles has been experimentally investigated in …

Fluid flow and heat transfer when cold and hot fluids mix in a T-junction packed with
spherical particles have been numerically investigated using large eddy simulations (LES) …

An experimental study was conducted on turbulent flow and mixing in a counter-flow type T-
junction. We measured the velocity and concentration fields simultaneously by combining …

Thermal stratification is the main reason for thermal fatigue failure in the rectangular T-
junction. An impeller is set in the mixing zone in the rectangular T-junction to improve the …

Temperature fluctuations occur due to thermal mixing of hot and cold streams in the T-
junctions of the piping system in nuclear power plants. Temperature fluctuations cause …

Abstract At the Fluid-Structure-Interaction (FSI) facility at the University of Stuttgart, thermal
mixing experiments have been conducted to investigate thermal fatigue (aka thermal …

Temperatures were measured at the inner surface of an annulus between two coaxial tubes,
where three water streams mixed. These temperatures were sampled at either 100 Hz or …

Thermal mixing characteristics in a T-junction area which has different type of 90-degree
bend in the upstream area are evaluated in order to clarify the effect of the curvature ratio on …

The T-junction piping is frequently used in many industrial applications, including the
nuclear plants. For a pressurized water reactor (PWR), the emergency core cooling systems …

Thermal fatigue is one of the typical phenomena of fluid-structure interaction. It is a
degradation mechanism to the piping materials and mostly found close to mixing tees where …
