Characterization of Fuel Rods Supported by Dimple‐Less Spacer Grids and Subjected to Nonlinear Vibrations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, Volume 6, Issue 1, Page 3-21, March 2026.
ABSTRACT An experimental campaign was undertaken to demonstrate the applicability of the Bouc–Wen hysteretic model to describe the hysteretic system of the recent Framatome dimple‐less spacer grid design for Pressurized Water Reactors. The experimental setup subjected a reduced‐length fuel rod, supported at both ends by dimple‐less grids, to forced ...

Impact of Leading and Trailing‐Edge Perforations on the Thermohydraulic Performance of Rectangular‐Winglet Vortex Generators

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In this study, the thermohydraulic performance of rectangular‐winglet vortex generators (VGs) with different hole configurations (a central hole, dual‐edge holes, a leading‐edge hole, and a trailing‐edge hole) was numerically investigated. In addition, airflows through solar air heater ducts enhanced with these VGs were simulated using the realizable k‐

Review on Coupled Thermo-Hydraulic Performance of Nanofluids and Microchannels

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2022
As electronic components continue to be miniaturized, the heat flux density continues to increase. Scholars have proposed the use of microchannel heat sinks (MCHS) to dissipate heat from devices with high heat flux density, and have pointed out that the ...

A Novel Tubular Solar Air Heater With Internal Plates: A CFD Study on Segregated Impingement Flow

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This paper presents a numerical analysis of a novel and efficient solar air heater (SAH) designed with an integrated impingement‐return configuration to enhance thermal performance. The system consists of nine blackened copper tubes where incoming air first passes through the lower half of each tube. At the far end, the flow reverses direction in a 180°

Analysis of Temperature and Displacement Fields in the Freeze Construction of Overlapping Cross‐Passages Within Water‐Rich Sand Layers

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In the construction of an F‐type cross‐passage in an overlapping‐type shield tunnel using the artificial ground freezing method, the development of the distal frozen wall is difficult to control, and ground deformation is influenced by the superimposed disturbance of successive construction steps. Existing studies are insufficient to fully characterize

Numerical Investigation of Heat Transfer Rate Improvement in Heat Exchangers Utilizing Innovative Wavy Vortex Generators

open access: yesModelling and Simulation in Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Quick‐cooling heat exchangers are used for a wide range of industrial applications. This study is aimed at employing the wavy surfaces of the vortex generators to reduce pressure drops and enhance heat transfer performance. The turbulent conditions for mixture (water and air) flow with Rew = 3500–5000.
