Numerical study on flow separation in 90° pipe bend under high Reynolds number by k-ε modelling

The present paper makes an effort to find the flow separation characteristics under high Reynolds number in pipe bends. Single phase turbulent flow through pipe bends is investigated using k-ε turbulence model. After the validation of present model against existing experimental results, a detailed s...
