The Effect of Reynolds Number on Jet in Asymmetric Co-Flows: A CFD Study
作者:Claudia Guerra
1. Mixing processes are present both in the field of hydraulic engineering and in the environment and appear in countless situations that are of great interest to humans.
2. This Doctoral Thesis is motivated by the importance of analyzing, through numerical methods, the physics of turbulent flow in different mixing processes of interest in the field of hydraulic engineering and environmental fluid mechanics
3. The Reynolds number (Re) is a dimensionless number used in fluid mechanics, reactor design and transport phenomena to characterize the movement of a fluid. Its value indicates whether the flow follows a laminar or turbulent model.
4. In biology and particularly in biophysics, the Reynolds number determines the relationships between mass and velocity of the movement of microorganisms within a liquid characterized by a certain value of said number
