Using dual mutation particle swarm method to optimize the variable cross-section of a thermoelectric generator based on a comprehensive thermodynamic model

open access: yesCleaner Engineering and Technology, 2022
The shape design for a thermoelectric generator (TEG) plays an important role in its performance. In this paper, a hyperbolic function was introduced to design a variable cross-section TEG module to optimize the configuration for maximum power generation

Large-scale structures of wall-bounded turbulence in single- and two-phase flows: advancing understanding of the atmospheric surface layer during sandstorms

open access: yesFlow, 2021
In recent years, observations of the atmospheric surface layer have greatly promoted research on high-Reynolds-number wall-bounded turbulence, especially observations of wind-blown sand flows/sandstorms, which are typical sand-laden two-phase flows ...

Hybrid Computation of the Aerodynamic Noise Radiated by the Wake of a Subsonic Cylinder

open access: yesFluids, 2023
The noise radiated by the flow around a cylinder in the subcritical regime at ReD=1×104 and at a subsonic Mach number of M=0.5 is here studied. The aerodynamic sound radiated by a cylinder has been studied with a wide range of Reynolds numbers, but there
