Circulation characteristics of horseshoe vortex in scour region around circular piers by Subhasish Das, Rajib Das, Asis Mazumdar

“…The circulation decreases with the increase of flow shallowness, and increases with the densimetric Froude number. It also increases with the pier Reynolds number at a constant densimetric Froude number, or at a constant flow shallowness. …”

THRESHOLDS OF UPPER-STAGE PLANE BED REGIME FOR INTENSE BED LOAD IN OPEN CHANNEL by Štěpán Zrostlík, Václav Matoušek

“…The transition between the UPB regime and the wavy regime is found at a constant value of the densimetric Froude number. Relatively high values of Froude number at the threshold are due primarily to the presence of the collisional transport layer which protects the bed from an influence of undulating water surface.…”

Investigation of ship waves in a narrow channel by Dam, Khanh Toan, Tanimoto, Katsutoshi, Fatimah, Eldina

“…The relative depth Froude number for the river current, an appropriate parameter for assessing the influence of the current on ship wave characteristics in a navigation channel, ranged from 0.47 to 0.76. …”

Blockage slope and ratio effects on box culvert hydraulics by Mahmoud Zayed

“…In this study, we conducted a series of narrow flume tests to investigate the effects of four bottom blockage slope angles and five blockage ratios on the hydraulic characteristics of box culverts, including backwater rise, and upstream mean velocity at various Froude numbers. The results showed that Froude number, blockage ratio, and slope angle were regarded as the controlling variables for culvert backwater rise. …”

Effect of Channel Boundary Conditions in Predicting Hydraulic Jump Characteristics using an ANFIS-Based Approach by K. Roushangar, R. Ghasempour, R. Valizadeh

“…In the prediction of jump length, the superior performance was obtained for the model with input combinations of Froude number and the relative height of jump. From the sensitivity analysis, it was induced that, Fr1 (upstream Froude number) is the most significant parameter in modeling process. …”

Measurement of Humid Gas by Henry, M, Tombs, M

“…SUBSTANCE: method to determine properties of a multi-phase process fluid medium includes stages, when: the multi-phase fluid medium is sent along an oscillating movable flow metering tube and a flow metre of alternating pressure difference; motion of the flow metering tube is caused, and the first apparent property of the fluid medium is determined; at least one apparent intermediate value is determined, which is the first Froude number for the non-gaseous phase of the fluid medium and the second Froude number for the gaseous phase of the fluid medium; the extent of humidity of the fluid medium is determined on the basis of conversion between the first and second Froude numbers and the extent of humidity; the second apparent property of the fluid medium is determined using the flow metre of alternating pressure difference; the phase-dependent property of the fluid medium is determined on the basis of extent of humidity and the second apparent property. …”
