The use of solar thermal energy for self- and passive control of sedimentation in large reservoirs
(2021-02-21)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policySolar therm al energy and its possible role with regard to self- and passive con-trol sedimentation in large reservoirs behind dams is discussed. It is knownthe impact caused by large re servoirs because the drastic reduction ... -
The mechanical effect of moisturization on airborne COVID-19 transmission and its potential use as control technique
(2021-03-13)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyMounting evidence from scientific community seems to suggest that COVID-19 virus can potentially spread by airborne transmission. As a result, methods and techniques for preventing environmental contagious, such as ventilation ... -
Turbulence models for simulation and modeling in textile engineering
(Elsevier, 2021-04-01)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyTurbulence accounts for most of the processes in textile engineering among other interdisciplinary fields. In this chapter, a comprehensive description of turbulent models and description of important terms and theories ... -
Discharge coefficients of a heavy suspension nozzle
(MDPI, 2021-03-15)
Article
Open AccessThe suspensions used in heavy vehicles often consist of several oil and two gas chambers. In order to perform an analytical study of the mass flow transferred between two gas chambers separated by a nozzle, and when ... -
Experimental investigation of a cavitating Venturi and its application to flow metering
(2021-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyAn experimental investigation has been carried out to evaluate the performance of a cavitating Venturi flow. For that purpose, a closed loop circuit with a centrifugal pump and a transparent asymmetric converging-diverging ... -
Film boiling heat transfer from micro heat sinks driven by Bénard-Marangoni convection
(2021-01-26)
External research report
Open AccessBénard-Marangoni convection and its significance with regard to film boiling heat transfer from micro heat sinks is discussed. In recent works cooling performance of micro heat sinks has been studied showing that two-phase ... -
Magnetic hyperthermia for particle image velocimetry (MH-PIV)
(2021-01-26)
External research report
Open AccessIn this work a novel approach is investigated for Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) which is a technique used as optical method for instantaneous flow visualization. So far traditional PIV is based in the injection of small ... -
Ferrofluid moving thin films for active flow control
(Elsevier, 2021-01-12)
Article
Open AccessFerrofluid moving thin films and their possible significance with regard to active flow control for lift and attack angle enhancement are discussed. In this strategy, a very thin film of ferrofluid is strongly attached at ... -
Numerical investigation of the cavitation effects on the vortex shedding from a hydrofoil with blunt trailing edge
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2020-11-21)
Article
Open AccessVortex cavitation can appear in the wake flow of hydrofoils, inducing unwanted consequences such as vibrations or unstable behaviors in hydraulic machinery and systems. To investigate the cavitation effects on hydrofoil ... -
Numerical modal analysis of a Kaplan turbine runner
(2020)
Conference lecture
Open AccessThe aim of the research has been to investigate the change of dynamic behavior of a Kaplan turbine runner when submerged in still water. More specifically, the effects of the added mass on the modes of vibration have been ... -
Improvement of cavitation mass transfer modeling by including Rayleigh–Plesset equation second order term
(2020-06-03)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe current study evaluates the effect of taking into account the second order term of the Rayleigh– Plesset equation for the numerical simulation of cavitation with homogeneous mixture models. For that, the corrected ... -
Airplane vortices evolution near ground
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-01-05)
Article
Open AccessAirport traffic around the world has sharply increased over the years; as a result, airports need to be enlarged and the landing or taking off times between two consecutive airplanes must be reduced. To precisely determine ...
