Warmer and wetter might not be better

As the climate continues to change, gaps in our understanding of how the altered environment will affect forest hosts and their pathogens widen.In some areas pathogens thought to be present for centuries are changing their behaviour.Dothistroma needle blight caused by the fungus Dothistroma septosporum in northwest British Columbia (BC), Canada, is

Investigation on energy dissipation mechanism in a double-suction centrifugal pump based on Rortex and enstrophy

Since double-suction centrifugal pumps consume quantities of energy, revealing critical factors for energy dissipation is helpful for energy-saving design.This study aims to investigate the relationship between energy dissipation and vortex based on Rortex method in a double-suction centrifugal pump.Detached eddy simulation was applied to obtain th
