Stagnation point flow of viscoelastic nanomaterial over a stretched surface

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2018
Present communication aims to discuss magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stagnation point flow of Jeffrey nanofluid by a stretching cylinder. Modeling is based upon Brownian motion, thermophoresis, thermal radiation and heat generation.

Simulation of flight test conditions in the Langley pilot transonic cryogenic tunnel [PDF]

open access: yes
The theory and advantages of the cryogenic tunnel concept are briefly reviewed. The unique ability to vary temperature independently of pressure and Mach number allows, in addition to large reductions in model loads and tunnel power, the independent ...

The Bitter Taste of Brazil's Temporary Import Ban on Robusta Coffee

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brazil, a leading Robusta coffee producer and exporter, faced a significant drought in 2016–2017, which drastically reduced production and depleted stocks. Consequently, Brazil temporarily permitted the import of one million 60‐kg bags of Robusta coffee in the spring 2017. An import ban was imposed shortly afterward due to lobbying by domestic

Unsteady stagnation-point heat transfer during passage of a concentrated vortex [PDF]

open access: yes
The unsteady boundary layer due to a single rectilinear vortex filament approaching a 2-D stagnation point is investigated. Assuming the vortex remains far from the surface, incompressible potential flow theory is used to determine the time dependent ...

The development of accurate stagnation temperature probes for gas turbine applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During gas turbine development testing, measurements of the gas-path stagnation temperature are used to characterise the engine running condition and establish individual engine component performance.

Regulating Airflow Using Hybrid LCN for Soft Pneumatic Circuits

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
To address more autonomous soft robots with embodied control and regulation systems, herein, a liquid crystal network‐based fluid regulator that can be manipulated through multiphysical stimuli is proposed. Aided by finite element modeling for thermal actuation, regulators are designed and incorporated into fluidic circuits and demonstrate that they ...

Investigation of second grade fluid through temperature dependent thermal conductivity and non-Fourier heat flux

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2018
Here we investigated stagnation point flow of second grade fluid over a stretchable cylinder. Heat transfer is characterized by non-Fourier law of heat flux and thermal stratification.

Enhancing solar-thermal energy conversion with silicon-cored tungsten nanowire selective metamaterial absorbers

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: This work experimentally studies a silicon-cored tungsten nanowire selective metamaterial absorber to enhance solar-thermal energy harvesting. After conformally coating a thin tungsten layer about 40 nm thick, the metamaterial absorber exhibits ...

Pressure distribution in a converging-diverging nozzle during two-phase choked flow of subcooled nitrogen [PDF]

open access: yes
Choked flow rates and axial pressure distributions were measured for subcooled nitrogen in a converging-diverging nozzle with a constant area section in the throat region.

A review of strategies for the control of high temperature stagnation in solar collectors and systems

open access: yesEnergy Procedia, 2012
AbstractHigh temperatures occurring during stagnation conditions can be very detrimental to the reliability, durability and safety of solar thermal systems. Various approaches to mitigate the effects to stagnation have been employed in the past, however as collector and system efficiencies improve, and larger solar systems are installed, the need for ...
