Uncontrolled air pocket release from water-filled shafts can lead to geysering in stormwater
systems. Such occurrences are deleterious from public health and environmental …

A filling operation generates continuous changes over the shape of an air–water interface,
which can be captured using a 3D CFD model. This research analyses the influence of …

Air valves operate as protection devices in pipelines during drainage processes in order to
mitigate vacuum pressures and control the transient flows. Currently, different authors have …

This effort investigates advancing cavitation modeling relevant to computational fluid
dynamics (CFD) through two strategies. The first aims to reformulate the cavitation models …

Stormwater systems are subject to operational issues while undergoing rapid filling during
intense rain events. In various instances, air–water interactions take place, and it is possible …

Two-and three-dimensional analyses of transient flows considering the air–water interaction
have been a challenge for researchers due to the complexity in the numerical resolution of …

In hydraulic engineering, some researchers have developed different mathematical and
numerical tools for a better understanding of the physical interaction between water flow in …

The numerical simulation of transient mixed flows requires suitable mathematical models
that must be validated by comparison with experimental data. For this reason, a simple …

The motion of liquid filling a pipeline is impeded when the gas ahead of it cannot escape.
Entrapped gas will lead to a significant pressure build-up in front of the liquid column, which …

The objective of this research is to investigate the velocity of oil drops within the impeller of
an electrical submersible pump (ESP) working with oil-in-water dispersion flows at different …
