On the Condensational Growth of Droplets in Isotropic Turbulence

, 2019
The role of thermal inertia of droplets in the broadening of the droplet size distribution in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence is investigated. A new model for the condensational growth of water droplets, which takes into account the finite thermal relaxation time of droplets, is formulated.

Numerical Thermal‐Hydraulic Evaluation of an Integrated Direct‐Indirect Oil Cooling System for an Electric Motor Under Steady‐State Overload Conditions

Advanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study evaluates an integrated direct‐indirect oil cooling system for electric motor thermal management under steady‐state overload conditions. The results show that the combined cooling architecture improves heat removal from the winding, stator, and housing while balancing pressure drop penalties.

Turbulence, Waves, and Taylor’s Hypothesis for Heliosheath Observations

The Astrophysical Journal
Magnetic field fluctuations measured in the heliosheath by the Voyager spacecraft are often characterized as compressible, as indicated by a strong fluctuating component parallel to the mean magnetic field.

Influence of Particle Aspect Ratio on Translational Collision Dynamics in Wall‐Bounded Turbulence

Chemical Engineering &Technology, Volume 49, Issue 6, June 2026.
Direct numerical simulations with fully resolved four‐way coupling show that particle shape strongly influences collision dynamics in turbulent channel flow. Needle‐like ellipsoids align with local shear, reducing turbulent scattering and producing lower collision velocities with narrower impact‐angle distributions.

Fourier Mass Lower Bounds for Batchelor‐Regime Passive Scalars

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 6, Page 1449-1466, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Batchelor predicted that a passive scalar ψν$\psi ^\nu$ with diffusivity ν$\nu$, advected by a smooth fluid velocity, should typically have Fourier mass distributed as |ψ̂ν|2(k)≈|k|−d$|\widehat{\psi }^\nu |^2(k) \approx |k|^{-d}$ for |k|≪ν−1/2$|k| \ll \nu ^{-1/2}$.

Thermal Analysis of Phase Change Material Based Energy Storage Module With Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces

Energy Storage, Volume 8, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The thermal performance of two triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) thermal Energy Storage modules, Diamond and Primitive, was investigated using computational fluid dynamics. The melting and solidification behaviors, as well as the charging and discharging characteristics, of the TPMS Energy Storage units were studied for various flow rates.

Impact of Partial Echo on 4D Flow MRI: The Insight From Synthetic MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 6, Page 3462-3475, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of the partial echo on 4D flow MRI sequences thanks to in silico coupled MRI‐CFD (computational fluid dynamics) simulations. Methods Two sequences are studied: one with a full echo (FE) and another using partial echo (PE) with an echo symmetry fraction of 0.75.

Ocean Wave Modulation of Offshore Wind Turbine Loads and Wake

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines how wave‐induced modulation affects the operational performance and structural dynamics of fixed‐bottom offshore wind turbines operating under a neutral atmospheric boundary layer profile. To capture these effects accurately while maintaining computational efficiency, unsteady RANS modelling techniques are employed.

Physics‐Informed Bayesian Optimisation of Utility‐Scale Wind Farms in Synthetically Generated Complex Terrain Using LES

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Optimising turbine layouts to maximise power output is crucial for wind farm development, particularly in complex terrain where analytical wake models fail to capture key flow physics. We present the first application of Bayesian optimisation (BO) combined with large eddy simulations (LES) for utility‐scale wind farm layout optimisation in ...
