Sentence examples for wake width from inspiring English sources

An optimized wake width of the trapezoidal obstruction leads to a low harmonic content rate of 5.5%.

It is also observed that the surface protrusions elongate the vortex formation region, decrease the vortex shedding frequency and shrink the wake width.

A theoretical wake width is proposed such that the Strouhal number based on it and the velocity at flow separation is independent of blockage effect.

The principal results are as follows: (1) Chamfered and rounded corners decrease drag forces, as a result of reduction in wake width.

Indentations along the prism vertical edges produce an increase of the mean wake width and a consequent decrease of both the vortex shedding and intermediate frequencies, whereas the low-frequency fluctuations are not affected.

By incorporating the proposed wake width and the momentum equation for confined flow into a free-streamline model for unconfined flow, the pressure at separation and the form drag are found as functions of blockage ratio.

The separation zone, the reattachment length, and the wake region width were clear in the visualization-obtained patterns.

Figure 5 shows the vertical distribution of the wake velocity at z=0 width x/d=−4 giving the upwind profile.

The universal Strouhal numbers considered were Roshko's number, Bearman's number, Griffin's number and we took the measured values of the width of wake streets for the reference length.

Putting these two factors together, Kelvin figured out that the width of the wake is determined by waves traveling at a fixed fraction of the boat's speed: 81.6%.

The information "read" by Henry's whiskers included the diameter of the vortex made by the paddle, the width of the wake, its total velocity, and sudden changes in its velocity.
