Fluid Dynamics TRIZ Cases

Pressure-driven phononic subsurfaces shift flow-wave phase to passively control drag, turbulence transition, and heat transfer.

A phase-changing surface forms a vapor cushion from liquid heat to cut drag and adhesion without fragile microtextures or high external heating.

Inner-surface protrusions with sub-1.5 μm pitch give a stretchable tube water repellency, easier handling, and cleaner liquid transfer.

Slots, baffle plates, and bottom apertures mix gas and liquid for more uniform catalyst bed flow with lower pressure drop and fewer hot spots.

Angled edge parts and adhesive mounting improve vortex generator alignment and attachment strength on wind turbine blades, helping reduce noise.

Rotational exhaust flow from an annular vortex generator helps particles pass bends and connectors, reducing wall buildup and maintenance.

Localized air heating near an airfoil raises the speed of sound to suppress shock waves, improving lift-to-drag ratio and reducing noise.

Helical passages create rotational pipeline flow that cuts head loss and wall erosion while keeping abrasive particulates suspended.

Swirling flow paths and cavitation grooves generate fine bubbles that improve fluid penetration, cooling, and tool life while simplifying assembly.

A variable-concave dynamic reflector redirects pressure impulse into azimuthal motion, reducing shaft radial load while broadening waveforms.

Multiple-opening BRO plates balance pressure across the conduit to cut eddy turbulence, improve measurement accuracy, and limit noise and erosion.

An offset main flow path and waste-side purge valve cut dead zones, speed gas discharge, and reduce residue in semiconductor chambers.

Compressed air reverses in the guide pipe to recover from wire deflection and shorten auto wire feeding retries in wire EDM.

Automatic reservoir switching keeps surgical suction continuous while fluid is measured, evacuated, and handled with lower pathogen exposure.

A shielding stud, seal heads, and threaded plug move fasteners out of the pressure chamber to cut stress raisers and prevent hazardous leaks.

Non-uniform protrusion spacing lets the regulating body deform across different pressure ranges to hold a desired flow rate more precisely.

Redistribution treating zones in bed vessels disperse streams across processing beds, reducing channeling without added flow-redistribution hardware.

Spiral conduits with alternating cross-sections control injection pressure drop while cutting polymer degradation and preserving viscosity.

Stepped tube restraints redirect exhaust gas upward in an HRSG to improve flow uniformity, heat transfer, and pressure loss control.
