Large eddy simulation of aircraft at affordable cost: a milestone in computational fluid dynamics

Konrad Goc, O. Lehmkuhl, George Ilhwan Park et al. · 1 Jan 2021

Abstract While there have been numerous applications of large eddy simulations (LES) to complex flows, their application to practical engineering configurations, such as full aircraft models, have been limited to date. Recently, however, advances in rapid, high quality mesh generation, low-dissipation numerical schemes and physics-based subgrid-scale and wall models have led to, for the first…

Monitoring carbon dioxide to quantify the risk of indoor airborne transmission of COVID-19

Martin Z. Bazant, Ousmane Kodio, Alexander E. Cohen et al. · 1 Jan 2021

Abstract A new guideline for mitigating indoor airborne transmission of COVID-19 prescribes a limit on the time spent in a shared space with an infected individual (Bazant & Bush, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America , vol. 118, issue 17, 2021, e2018995118). Here, we rephrase this safety guideline…

Solidity effects on the performance of vertical-axis wind turbines

Mark A. Miller, Subrahmanyam Duvvuri, Marcus Hultmark · 1 Jan 2021

Abstract The variety of configurations for vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) make the development of universal scaling relationships for even basic performance parameters difficult. Rotor geometry changes can be characterized using the concept of solidity, defined as the ratio of solid rotor area to the swept area. However, few studies have explored the effect of this…

Impact of wind farm wakes on flow structures in and around downstream wind farms

Anja Stieren, Richard J. A. M. Stevens · 1 Jan 2022

We performed large-eddy simulations in a neutral atmospheric boundary layer to study the interaction between two identical wind farms with 72 turbines each. We demonstrate that the wind farm wake created by the upstream farm affects the entire flow in and around the downstream farm. The vertical entrainment fluxes above the downstream wind farm are…

Flow template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Flow format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Flow template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Cambridge University Press format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Flow use?
Flow uses Numbered references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, A representative article title, Flow 12 (2023) 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Flow?
No. DocuGuru generates the null LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Cambridge University Press-ready Flow document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Flow template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Flow format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes Flow?
Flow is a multidisciplinary journal published by Cambridge University Press. DocuGuru's Flow template matches Cambridge University Press's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Flow PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Flow template (the null class) that is ready to submit to Cambridge University Press, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Flow template cost?
You can start writing in the Flow template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Flow PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
