      The purpose of this paper is to describe numerical electro-thermal simulations of the REMS wind sensor unit [3] and the results obtained by using COMSOL multiphysics. This device is a hot-film anemometer for 2D wind ...
    • Periodic orbits in tall laterally heated rectangular cavities 

      Net Marcé, Marta; Sánchez Umbría, Juan (2017-02-02)
      Article
      Accés obert
      This study elucidates the origin of the multiplicity of stable oscillatory flows detected by time integration in tall rectangular cavities heated from the side. By using continuation techniques for periodic orbits, it is ...
