This paper aims to provide a robust design approach for HAWTs operating in shear flow. This study fills a critical research gap by integrating BEM and vortex theories for blade design in non‐homogeneous inflow conditions. The authors of the paper made an effort to develop and test an experimentally unsophisticated model of a turbine working in shear ...

Cold spray deposition of stainless steel (grade: SS304) is evaluated for marine applications, with emphasis on martensitic transformation during impact. Analytical modeling, simulations, and experiments reveal that helium‐assisted spraying of fine powders promotes cooling below the martensitic start temperature, enabling up to ≈40% austenite to ...

Flow Structure of a Coaxial Circular Jet with Axisymmetric and Helical Instability Modes
The flow structures in a coaxial jet with axisymmetric and helical instability modes for a comparatively low Reynolds number were investigated. The flow visualization and the measurements of velocities were carried out in an open water tank. In addition,

Downdraft Devices for Negative Emissions—Quantification Study and Environmental Implication
ABSTRACT Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas with a global warming potential far exceeding that of CO2 over short time horizons. Its removal from the atmosphere remains challenging due to its low ambient concentration and chemical stability. This study explores downdraft energy towers (DETs) as an innovative CH4 mitigation technology that enhances

Effects of Processing on the Mechanical Performance of GF‐PC Composites: A Multiscale Investigation
From processing and interface conditions, to macro/micro scale characterization, and postmortem analysis. ABSTRACT A robust fiber‐matrix interface is crucial for any composite system, with higher challenges in thermoplastic matrices compared to thermosets (reaction in composite level).

Numerical Study of a Supersonic Nozzle Gas Jet Laden with a Dry Powder Fire-extinguishing Agent Injected from a Bypass Injector [PDF]
To enhance the firefighting capabilities of traditional dry powder extinguishers, we incorporated an air-assisted supersonic nozzle, which is simulated using Euler-Lagrange interphase coupling to simulate the injection of firefighting agents into a ...

NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF CHOCKED CONVERGING-DIVERGING NOZZLES FOR THRUSTER APPLICATION
The need for low-thrust propulsion systems for small scale spacecraft is growing. Low thrust characteristics generally lead to low Reynolds number flows from propulsive devices that utilize converging-diverging nozzle.
