Turbine endwall single cylinder program

Measurements of the flow field in front of a large-scale single cylinder, mounted in a wind tunnel are discussed. Static pressures on the endwall and cylinder surfaces, extensive five-hole probe pressures in front of and around the cylinder, and velocity fluctuations using a hot-wire probe where the flow is steady enough to yield meaningful results are included

Measurements of a turbulent horseshoe vortex formed around a cylinder

An experimental investigation was conducted to characterize a symmetrical horseshoe vortex system in front of and around a single large-diameter right cylinder centered between the sidewalls of a wind tunnel. Surface flow visualization and surface static pressure measurements as well as extensive mean velocity and pressure measurements in and around the vortex system were acquired. The results lend new insight into the formation and development of the vortex system. Contrary to what has been assumed previously, a strong vortex was not identified in the streamwise plane of symmetry, but started a significant angular distance away from it. Rather than the multiple vortex systems reported by others, only a single primary vortex and saddle point were found. The scale of the separation process at the saddle point was much smaller than the scale of the approaching boundary layer thickness. Results of the present study not only shed light on such phenomena as the nonsymmetrical endwall flow in axial turbomachinery but can also be used as a test case for three-dimensional computational fluid mechanics computer codes

2015 AQ Summit: Identified R&D Needs Report

The Maine Aquaculture Coordinating Council recognized these issues and identified the need to strengthen connectivity between key components of the Maine aquaculture research community, and to develop a much greater alignment between research capacity and industry needs with the aim of strengthening the competitiveness and sustainability of the aquaculture sector while growing the research capacity. This includes fostering integration of existing multidisciplinary research capacity and capability not traditionally aligned with aquaculture-related activities. On January 14th, 2015 the Maine Aquaculture Innovation Center, and the University of Maine Aquaculture Research Institute hosted the first annual Maine Aquaculture R&D Forum (later renamed to Summit). This was a unique opportunity for members of the industry and researchers to meet, exchange ideas, and explore innovative, cutting edge solutions for Maine’s aquaculture industry needs
