Experimental investigation of turbulent flow in a two-pass channel with different U-shaped bends

Time-resolved particle image velocimetry is used to study internal flow field characteristics in U-shaped channels of square cross section and different structures of the bend section. The Reynolds number based on the hydraulic diameter of the channel is 8888, 13 333, or 17 777. The mean flow and Re...
