The Roles of Riblet and Superhydrophobic Surfaces in Energy Saving Using a Spatial Correlation Analysis

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2023
Riblet and superhydrophobic surfaces are two typical passive control technologies used to save energy. In this study, three microstructured samples—a micro-riblet surface (RS), a superhydrophobic surface (SHS), and a novel composite surface of micro ...

Interaction between Molten Al‐Killed Mn–B Steel and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐temperature interactions between low‐sulfur Al‐killed Mn–B steel and MgO–C refractories (0 and 50 wt% recyclates) are studied via finger immersion tests (1600 °C). Surface‐active elements influence infiltration. MgO/CaS layer forms, along with spinel and calcium silicate.

Experimental Investigation on Drag Reduction Characteristics of Riblets Considering the Flow Environment of Fuselage

open access: yesAerospace
The riblets surface is a passive turbulence drag reduction technology that holds promising application prospects in drag reduction for large aircraft. Currently, most research on the drag reduction characteristics of riblets is limited to medium and low ...

Turbulent drag in a rotating frame

open access: yes, 2016
What is the turbulent drag force experienced by an object moving in a rotating fluid? This open and fundamental question can be addressed by measuring the torque needed to drive an impeller at constant angular velocity $\omega$ in a water tank mounted on

Coulomb corrections to the extrinsic spin-Hall effect of a two-dimensional electron gas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We develop the microscopic theory of the extrinsic spin Hall conductivity of a two-dimensional electron gas, including skew-scattering, side-jump, and Coulomb interaction effects. We find that while the spin-Hall conductivity connected with the side-jump

Impact of Sustainable Binders Based on Lignin and Collagen on the Volume Stability and Mechanical Properties of MgO‐C Refractories with MgO‐C Recyclates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Collagen hydrolysate is evaluated as a sustainable binder for MgO‐C refractories. Its thermally induced cross‐linking and gas release lead to expansion and cracking in large bricks, but tailored batches with lignin, recyclates, or fine graphite improve the gas release while thermal treatment and stability.

Toward a structural understanding of turbulent drag reduction: nonlinear coherent states in viscoelastic shear flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Nontrivial steady flows have recently been found that capture the main structures of the turbulent buffer layer. We study the effects of polymer addition on these "exact coherent states" (ECS) in plane Couette flow.

Surface Tension Measurement of Ti‐6Al‐4V by Falling Droplet Method in Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this article, the temperature‐dependent surface tension of free falling, oscillating Ti‐6Al‐4V droplets is investigated in both argon and monosilane doped, oxygen‐free atmosphere. Droplet temperature and oscillation are captured with one single high‐speed camera, and the surface tension is calculated with Rayleigh's formula.

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow with opposition control based on nonlinear forecasting

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology
As skin-friction drag in wall turbulence has a considerable environmental impact, a feedback control technique is applied to provide the drag reduction effect.
