Numerical simulation of flow characteristics behind the aerodynamic performances on an airfoil with leading edge protuberances

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2017
This article presents a numerical investigation of the effects of leading-edge protuberances on airfoil stall and post-stall performance. An improved delayed detached eddy simulation (IDDES) method was adopted.

Evaporation‐Driven Solutal Marangoni Control of Rayleigh–Taylor Instability in Inverted Films

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inverted liquid films, like paint on a ceiling, are inherently unstable under gravity. This work shows that selective evaporation in volatile binary mixtures generates solutal Marangoni stresses that either suppress or amplify the Rayleigh Taylor instability.

Diagnostic Technique for Degradation of Engineering Materials by Measurement of Thermophysical Properties

open access: yesNetsu Bussei, 2007
AbstractThe thermal conductivity of the surface layer of engineering materials changes in the early stages of material degradation due to the appearance of micro‐cracks. A new method for evaluating and assessing the degree of degradation of a material using this change is proposed herein.

Dual Effect of Steric Hindrance in Non‐Aqueous Amine Absorbents: Navigating the Trade‐Off Between Kinetics and Thermodynamics for Efficient CO2 Capture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates how steric hindrance in amines creates a dual effect in CO2 capture: it thermodynamically favors the reaction by shifting the pathway from carbamate to alkyl carbonate formation, increasing capacity and lowering regeneration heat, while simultaneously slightly slowing the kinetics.
