Optimization of Flow Characteristics and Diffusion Angles of Forward Inflow Forebay of Pumping Station by LI Yun, LI Chaochao, LI Mingyang, GU Jingchao

“…At diffusion angles of 25°and 30°, the vortex area occupies less of the forebay inflow, resulting in a more stable flow field. ② Reducing the number of operating pumping stations from five to two decreases the vortex area in the forebay from 31.42 m² to 10.15 m², with optimal forebay flow achieved when operating pumping stations 3# and 4#. …”

Prefrontal Abilities by D. F. Benson

“…The neuroanatomical region that has most prominently altered with the advancing cognitive competency of the human is the prefrontal cortex, particularly the rostral extreme. While the prefrontal cortex does not appear to contain the neural networks that carry out cognitive activities, the management of these high level manipulations, so uniquely characteristic of the human, appears dependent upon the prefrontal cortex.…”

Influences of Flow Attack Angles and Flow Directions on Heat Transfer Rate, Pressure Loss, and Thermal Performance in Heat Exchanger Tube with V-Wavy Surface by Amnart Boonloi, Withada Jedsadaratanachai

“…The numerical results reveal that the V-wavy surface changes the flow structure in the test section. The vortex flow is produced by the V-wavy surface. The vortex flow disturbs the thermal boundary layer on the heat transfer surface that is the reason for heat transfer and thermal performance enhancements. …”
