Abstract
The results of some experiments on turbulenoe management using
combinations of honeycombs of different lengths and coarse and fine
screens, oarried out in highly nonuniform and turbulent flows
generated in a 127-mm plexiglas pipe by an upstream blower and
diffuser, are presented. The performance of the devices as single
manipulators and in combination was evaluated through hot-wire
measurements of the mean and rms .values of the longitudinal
velocities over the pipe cross section. The results show that
relati vely short honeycombs, preceded by a coarse screen and
followed by one or more fine screens, oan be used for effective
management of highly nonuniform and turbulent flows.
