Spacing Effects in Guided Vertical‐Axis Wind Turbine Arrays for Highway Energy Harvesting Under Multi‐Vehicle Wake Conditions

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Three‐turbine guided Savonius arrays installed along highway corridors extract up to 697 J under multi‐vehicle wake conditions when spaced 12 rotor diameters apart—68% more than compact arrangements. Guide vanes boost output by 80–120%, and interior turbines respond most strongly to spacing, governing overall array performance. ABSTRACT Highway‐induced

Effect of Microchannel Geometry on Nanoparticle Deposition in Nanofluid Flow

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This study numerically analyzed nanoparticle deposition in microchannels with varying geometries. Deposition per unit area decreases significantly with increasing bend angle (28.612 to 8.941 between 30° and 120°) and bend radius (11.922 to 4.769 between 0.2 and 0.4 mm). Acute bends and small radii enhance centrifugal forces and flow separation, leading

Architecting nano‐Al/HMX/CuO energetic micro‐units unlocks superior interface and highly efficient combustion

InfoMat, EarlyView.
Improving the dispersion of nano‐aluminum is of great importance in explosives and propellants. The spherical Al/HMX/CuO energetic micro‐units were prepared using microchannel technology, which significantly improved the uniformity and dispersion of nano‐Al. It also enhanced the mass and heat transfer efficiency between the fuel and oxidizer components,
