ABSTRACT Accurate, time‐resolved heat load profiles are essential for realistic district heating simulations, enabling optimized network operation and long‐term transformation planning. In this work, we systematically evaluate modeling approaches for generating such profiles, comparing data‐driven methods (e.g., regression and machine learning) with ...

ABSTRACT Counterflow heat exchangers (CHXs) thermally couple consumers and producers to a district heating network (DHN). Fluctuating loads and control actions naturally lead to unsteady operation conditions of the network and its components, posing a challenge for DHN models and CHX parameterizations based on Nusselt correlations that assume steady ...

Mass Transport of a Two Phase Flow Through a Converging Gap With One Moving Wall
ABSTRACT Mechanical seals are designed to separate two fluid phases from each other, exemplified by the separation of ambient air and hydraulic oil in hydraulic cylinder applications. These seals necessarily include a converging gap, even at a microscopic level.

Block‐Structured Meshing in Coupled Problems With Moving Domains
ABSTRACT Structured mesh generation is a delicate task in (multi‐physics) simulations on moving domains. For a given geometry, such meshes may be generated based on a block‐structure: This is a coarse‐scale representation of the geometry using blocks with the exact geometry and desired grading information assigned to the block edges. Based on the block‐

Implementation of a Thermomechanical Model for Journal Bearings Using p‐FEM
ABSTRACT Hydrodynamic journal bearings are essential machine parts that are used for applications with high rotational speeds. Their precise simulation requires the consideration of thermomechanical interactions between solids and fluid. During operation, the shear stresses in the fluid (lubricant film heights: 5–100 μm${\umu }\mathrm{m}$), lead to ...

Stabilized Finite Elements for Incompressible, Stationary Navier–Stokes Flows on Manifolds
ABSTRACT A surface finite element method with residual‐based stabilization for stationary Navier–Stokes flows on curved manifolds is introduced. The mixed formulation in stress‐divergence form leads to a system of equations that has a saddle‐point structure.

On Cahn–Hilliard Type Viscoelastoplastic Two‐Phase Flows
ABSTRACT This contribution deals with a model for viscoelastoplastic two‐phase flows of Cahn–Hilliard type. We present the modeling framework for the flow, the notion of a generalized solution, namely the so‐called dissipative solution, and the key ideas of the existence proof.

ABSTRACT Injection molding is a manufacturing process for plastic components where precise geometries and part properties, such as local strength and stiffness, are critical. The mold filling phase, during which the hot molten polymer is rapidly injected into the cooled mold cavity, presents significant simulation challenges due to steep temperature ...
