The influence of convective exchanges on Coandã effect [PDF]
INCAS Bulletin, 2019 Modeling Coandã effect has been a fundamental issue in fluid dynamic research in the XX century. It has lost some interest because of the improvement in CFD, even if it could be still important in the area of the preliminary design of aerodynamic devices

Biomimetic and Constructal Design of Alveolus-Inspired Extended Surfaces for Heat Dispersion
Energies, 2022 Biomimetics is a school of design based on taking inspiration from nature to solve complex problems. This is done with the assumption that the natural world already has solutions to many engineering problems that have been refined through trial and error—

Constructal vascularized structures
Open Engineering, 2015 Smart features such as self-healing and selfcooling require bathing the entire volume with a coolant or/and healing agent. Bathing the entire volume is an example of point to area (or volume) flows.

Thermodynamic optimization of global circulation and climate [PDF]
, 2005 The constructal law of generation of flow structure is used to predict the main features of global circulation and climate. The flow structure is the atmospheric and oceanic circulation.

Mathematical Modelling of Engineering Problems, 2018 Received: 26 May 2018 Accepted: 19 November 2018 Constructal law deals with evolution and generation of new configurations of a physical system according to first and the second law of thermodynamics. Constructal law based design allows understanding the

Constructal theory of pattern formation [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2007 This review article shows that the occurrence of macroscopic flow configuration is a universal natural phenomenon that can be explained and predicted on the basis of a principle of physics (the constructal law): "For a flow system to persist in time

Thermodynamic optimisation of the biofuel production based on mutualism
Energy Reports, 2020 Recently, we have introduced a new bioeconomic indicator in order to avoid the difficulties in evaluating the process and technologies for sustainability. In this paper, we wish to improve this new indicator for the analysis of sustainability.
