Comparative Analysis of Al2O3/Water–TiO2/Chlorophyll Hybrid Nanofluids in a Photovoltaic–Thermal Solar Water Heating System

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
TiO2/chlorophyll bio‐hybrid nanofluid achieved the highest PVT performance, increasing thermal efficiency to 38.74% and overall efficiency to 51.35%, compared with 35.96% and 48.45% for Al2O3/water and 27.77% and 40.18% for water. The results demonstrate the potential of bio‐hybrid nanofluids for high‐efficiency solar thermal energy conversion ...

Existence and regularity of solutions to the Leray-alpha model with Navier slip boundary conditions

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2016
We establish the existence and regularity of a unique weak solution to turbulent flows in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^3$ governed by the Leray-$\alpha$ model with Navier slip boundary condition for the velocity. Furthermore, we show that

Advanced Thick FGM Plate–Cylindrical Shells in Supersonic Air Flow by Navier–Stokes Equation Analytical–Numerical Flow Model

open access: yesComputation
The thermal vibrations of a thick-walled functionally graded material (FGM) plate–cylindrical shells in unsteady supersonic flow with a Navier–Stokes equation analytical–numerical flow model and third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) displacement ...

Turbulence‐Intensity Effects on the Aerodynamic Performance of an H‐Type Darrieus Wind Turbine: A URANS Parametric Study

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Turbulence intensity from 1% to 25% was parametrically tested on a three‐bladed H‐type Darrieus rotor across five tip speed ratios (TSRs) using two‐dimensional URANS. The optimal TSR proved the most efficient and most robust operating point simultaneously, with Cp losses capped at 5.8% even at TI = 25%. ABSTRACT The effect of inlet turbulence intensity

Rheology of compressible and density-variable Newtonian flows: non-Stokes hypothesis and ‘volume diffusion’

open access: yesJournal of Physics Communications
Stokes’ hypothesis allows for the frequent neglect of the bulk viscosity term related to fluid dilation effects on the viscous stress tensor in Newtonian flows.

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

open access: yesFire 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.

Solution to Navier-Stokes equations for turbulent channel flows

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2020
In this article, we continue the work done in [11] for turbulent channel flows described by the Navier-Stokes and the Navier-Stokes-alpha equations. We study non-stationary solutions in special function spaces.

Immersed Boundary Projection Method for Boundaries With Slip Velocities

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
A formulation of the immersed boundary method for incompressible flow over arbitrarily‐shaped bodies with surface slip described by the Navier boundary condition is presented. The wall slip velocity and the boundary force are determined implicitly through a projection to satisfy both the boundary condition and the divergence‐free condition of the ...

New Thermal Lattice Boltzmann Method for Modeling Heat Transfer Problems Considering Temperature‐Dependent Properties

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Several engineering problems involve the need to model conjugate heat transfer processes considering the temperature‐dependence of the material properties. Consequently, a simulation tool capable of modeling this process is of great interest. In this context, the present work proposes a thermal lattice Boltzmann method (TLBM) for modeling the ...

Navier-Stokes equations with Navier boundary conditions and stochastic Lie transport: Well-posedness and inviscid limit

open access: yes
We prove the existence and uniqueness of global, probabilistically strong, PDE-strong solutions of the 2D Stochastic Navier-Stokes Equation under Navier boundary conditions with a transport and stretching noise.
