Thermal Analysis of Phase Change Material Based Energy Storage Module With Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces

open access: yesEnergy Storage, Volume 8, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The thermal performance of two triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) thermal Energy Storage modules, Diamond and Primitive, was investigated using computational fluid dynamics. The melting and solidification behaviors, as well as the charging and discharging characteristics, of the TPMS Energy Storage units were studied for various flow rates.

Experimental Factors and Techniques for Pool Boiling Heat Transfer Enhancement: A Critical Review

open access: yesHeat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 2201-2232, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This review presents a comprehensive assessment of active strategies for enhancing pool boiling heat transfer, with a focus on techniques that do not rely solely on the boiling surface modification. It examines a broad range of methodologies including fluid additives, external fields, mechanical interventions, and thermal‐geometric tuning that

An Evaluation of New Snow Interception and Ablation Parameterisations in Continental, Subarctic and Maritime Needleleaf Forests

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
A new mass and energy balance for intercepted snow more accurately represented observations of subcanopy snow water equivalent and canopy intercepted snow load compared to an existing approach. The new CanSnow model also revealed how intercepted snowfall is partitioned between throughfall, sublimation, drip and unloading to the forest floor at two ...

Ambipolar diffusion in large Prandtl number turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
ABSTRACT We study the effects of ambipolar diffusion (AD) on hydromagnetic turbulence. We consider the regime of large magnetic Prandtl number, relevant to the interstellar medium. In most of the cases, we use the single-fluid approximation where the drift velocity between charged and neutral particles is proportional to the Lorentz ...

CFD‐Based and Control‐Oriented Modeling of a Counterflow Heat Exchanger With Utilization of Parameter Identification

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
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 ...

Hydrodynamics of the Cylinder Rotating in the Unbounded Viscous Medium

open access: yesМеханика машин, механизмов и материалов, 2009
It is shown, that at first a laminar flow around rotating cylinder with growth of Reynolds number passes into a pseudo-laminar flow, and then into a steady turbulent flow.

Comparison of Power and Thrust Performance for a Fixed and Floating Offshore Wind Turbine

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Floating offshore wind turbines have been identified as a critical technology for sustainable electricity generation. Wind resource assessment is used to determine optimal locations for floating wind farms. However, current methodologies do not account for performance differences between fixed and floating turbines due to wind‐ and wave ...

A TURBULENT HEAT FLUX TWO–EQUATION θ 02 –εθ CLOSURE BASED ON THE V 2F TURBULENCE MODEL

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2003
The paper deals with the proposition of a two-equation turbulent heat flux closure without any damping function. The model has been based on Durbin’s V 2F dynamic turbulence closure and the Deng-Wu-Xi thermal turbulence model.

Wind Tunnel Assessment of Dynamic Induction Control Under Varying Inflow Wind Directions

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Dynamic induction control (DIC), also known as pulse control, is a wake‐mixing strategy intended to improve wind farm efficiency by mitigating wake‐induced power losses. It typically employs harmonic collective blade pitching to excite wake instabilities, forming coherent pulsing structures that enhance turbulent mixing and accelerate wake ...
