Vertidrome Airside Level of Service: Performance-Based Evaluation of Vertiport Airside Operations

open access: yesDrones, 2023
This paper presents the Vertidrome Airside Level of Service (VALoS) framework, a novel performance metric designed to evaluate airside traffic flow operations at vertidromes in the context of Urban Air Mobility (UAM). As the UAM industry rapidly evolves,

Airside friction and heat transfer performance of micro‐bare‐tube heat exchangers with bundle diameters varying gradually from 1.0 to 0.4 mm

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2023
In this paper, a micro‐bare‐tube heat exchanger structure with the tube bundle diameter varying gradually in the range of 1.0–0.4 mm is proposed. The airside friction and heat transfer performance correlations for this structure are given.
