Analytical approach to optimal dendritic structures for fluid flow

An approach is presented based on the hydrodynamics and the geometric description of a dendritic. The flow through the dendritic structure is obtained for steady and transient flow, both for laminar and turbulent flow regime. The hydrodynamic performance of networks under both flow regimes is also d...

Description
Summary:An approach is presented based on the hydrodynamics and the geometric description of a dendritic. The flow through the dendritic structure is obtained for steady and transient flow, both for laminar and turbulent flow regime. The hydrodynamic performance of networks under both flow regimes is also discussed.
