Convective Heat Transfer in Porous Materials [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Thermal convection stands out as an exceptionally efficient thermal transport mechanism, distinctly separate from conduction and radiation. Yet, the inherently elusive nature of fluid motion poses challenges in accurately controlling convective heat flow.

Low Mach number modeling of Type I X-ray burst deflagrations [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophys.J.653:545-557,2006, 2006
The Low Mach Number Approximation (LMNA) is applied to 2D hydrodynamical modeling of Type I X-ray bursts on a rectangular patch on the surface of a non-rotating neutron star. Because such phenomena involve decidedly subsonic flows, the timestep increase offered by the LMNA makes routine simulations of these deflagrations feasible in an environment ...

Scalable Manufacturing of Radiation‐Tolerant Potentiometric Electrodes: A Systematic Transition from Laboratory to Semiautomated Fabrication

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Laboratory protocols for producing thin‐film pH electrodes for sterilized single‐use technologies have been successfully developed into a semiautomated workflow, with higher throughput and precision of membrane thickness. Accuracies are within 0.05 pH units versus ground truth, and uncertainty analysis reveals the largest sources of error to be derived

Problems of astrophysical turbulent convection: thermal convection in a layer without boundaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Thermal convection in fluid layers heated from below are usually realized experimentally as well as treated theoretically with fixed boundaries on which conditions for the temperature and the velocity field are prescribed.

Dielectrophoretic force-driven convection in annular geometry under Earth's gravity

open access: yes, 2020
Context: A radial temperature gradient together with an inhomogeneous radial electric field gradient is applied to a dielectric fluid confined in a vertical cylindrical annulus inducing thermal electro-hydrodynamic convection.

On the necessary conditions for bursts of convection within the rapidly rotating cylindrical annulus [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Fluids 24, 066604 (2012), 2013
Zonal flows are often found in rotating convective systems. Not only are these jet-flows driven by the convection, they can also have a profound effect on the nature of the convection. In this work the cylindrical annulus geometry is exploited in order to perform nonlinear simulations seeking to produce strong zonal flows and multiple jets.

Theoretical study on melting of phase change material by natural convection

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021
Natural convection plays a crucial role in latent heat storage system. Determining how natural convection affects the melting of phase change material (PCM) will provide a better understanding of the melting process and give helpful advice on ...

Combining Metal Additive Manufacturing and Casting Technology: High Performance Cooling Channels for Electric Powertrain Components

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
When realized as inserts in high‐pressure die casting, aluminum cooling channels for electric powertrain components and similar applications typically require a stabilizing filler to survive the process. The present study investigates relinquishing this filler using additively manufactured inserts promising performance improvements.
