While vortex power is operational on a small scale, engineers have now unlocked its potential for large-scale hydrogeneration ...

Vortex streets occur in liquids as well as gases. As fluids move toward a cylinder that is sticking up into the prevailing flow, that flow will split around the cylinder. The edge of the fluid ...

An expansion of the polar vortex in the northern hemisphere during winter months causes a flow of cold air southward, along ...

Traditionally, the rotor hub wake analysis happens in a wind tunnel; however, with CFD solutions such as Fidelity CFD, the flow field computations can be done using overset meshes or sliding meshes ...

When the vortex weakens—which it does on occasion—the jet stream becomes wavy, bulging south and allowing Arctic air to flow down across North America and Eurasia, causing temperatures to ...

The Earth's magnetic field quietly supports life on the planet and now, for the first time, its invisible powers have been used to create new nanoparticles and materials. Scientists at Flinders ...
