Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.

Study of lubricant jet flow phenomena in spur gears: Out of mesh condition [PDF]

, 1983
The penetration depth onto the tooth flank of a jet of oil at different velocities pointed at the pitch line on the outgoing side of mesh was determined. The analysis determines the impingement depth for both the gear and the pinion.

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.

Experimental Factors and Techniques for Pool Boiling Heat Transfer Enhancement: A Critical Review

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review presents a comprehensive assessment of active strategies for enhancing pool boiling heat transfer, with a focus on techniques that do not rely solely on the boiling surface modification. It examines a broad range of methodologies including fluid additives, external fields, mechanical interventions, and thermal‐geometric tuning that

Heat Transfer Characteristics of Passive, Active, and Hybrid Impinging Jets: A Review

International Journal of Technology
In engineering applications, there is a need to reform the excitation techniques used for jet impingement to achieve simpler, more effective thermal exchange. Jet impingement is a highly effective method for enhancing heat transfer due to its ability

Hybrid RANS/LES of plane jets impinging on a flat plate at small nozzle-plate distances [PDF]

, 2012
A k-omega BASED HYBRID RANS/LES (Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes/large eddy simulation) model is tested for simulation of plane impinging jets at various nozzle-plate distances (H/B), where H is the distance and B is the slot's width) and various ...

Advances in Position‐Momentum Entanglement: A Versatile Tool for Quantum Technologies

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Position–momentum entanglement constitutes a high‐dimensional continuous‐variable resource in quantum optics. Recent advances in its generation, characterization, and control are reviewed, with emphasis on spontaneous parametric down‐conversion and modern measurement techniques.

Hydrodynamics of long jet impingement [PDF]

WIT Transactions on Engineering Sciences, 2008
A circular turbulent long jet has been assessed numerically using the volume-of-fluid method to examine the hydrodynamics of a long jet before impingement and to inspect the flow structure of a radial thin layer spreading over a flat plate after impingement. Typical steel mill industrial parameters are used in the model.

Single‐Shot Full‐Stokes Analysis of Partially‐Polarized Light With a Photonic Deep Random Neural Network

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Photonic neural networks are emerging as a powerful tool for analyzing light. The article reports a photonic deep random neural network that performs single‐shot low‐latency measurements of the state and degree of polarization with high accuracy. Using only a stack of glass diffusers on top of a small camera sensor, this neuromorphic polarization ...
