Mass distribution and skewness for passive scalar transport in pipes with polygonal and smooth cross sections
Mass distribution and skewness for passive scalar transport in pipes with polygonal and smooth cross sections
Abstract We extend our previous results characterizing the loading properties of a diffusing passive scalar advected by a laminar shear flow in ducts and channels to more general cross‐sectional shapes, including regular polygons and smoothed corner ducts originating from deformations of ellipses. For the case of the triangle and localized, …
