“…This clearly leads to a significantly larger mixing than in the previous regimes. If the Reynolds number is further increased, the flow may become unsteady (see, e.g., Bothe et al, 3 Dreher et al, 5 and Galletti et al 6 ). For instance, for square inlet pipes and an outflow pipe width (W o ) to height (H) ratio W o /H = 2 and for fully developed inlet velocity conditions, Engler et al 2 show that the flow is in stratified regime approximately for Re < 50 (based on the outflow hydraulic diameter and mean velocity), in vortex regime for 50 < Re < 150, engulfment starts at Re 150 and the flow is periodic for 240 < Re < 400.…”
