Electromagnetic (EM) flowmeters are important flow sensing devices across industries like oil and gas and power generation. The EM flowmeter works on the principle of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction. In short, when an ionic fluid like water flows through a pipe, in the ... En savoir plus

Incompressible flow field past a circular cylinder within parallel plate channel is very important in industry and science. As well known, beyond the Reynolds number based on the diameter of the cylinder and uniform flow velocity of 40, flow past a circular cylinder cannot hold its two ... En savoir plus

Sodium is used as a coolant in Fast Breeder Reactors. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) is used for measurement of sodium flow in the primary pump and at the outlet of the subassemblies. Eddy Current Flowmeter (ECFM) works on the principle of change in the magnetic field profile due to ... En savoir plus

Helicon Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) [1] is a plasma thruster being researched at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. It has been shown in Figure 1. It involves a helicon source along with an Inertial Electrostatic Confinement (IEC) chamber. IEC is a fusion ... En savoir plus

Macroscopic modeling of fluid flow and thermal diffusion, in a porous medium, requires the description of equivalent properties (permeability, conductivity and diffusivity). However, depending on the microstructure topology of the porous medium and the fluid flow regime at the ... En savoir plus

Soil sedimentation and consolidation, whether they are naturally or anthropically driven processes, are closely interconnected. While theoretical models are available to separately describe the behaviour of either ‘fluid’ suspensions or ‘solid’ soil, no well-established unified theory ... En savoir plus

Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations are vital in the design of loudspeakers, providing an efficient alternative to traditional trial-and-error methods. This study aims to advance the understanding and optimization of loudspeaker design focusing particularly on the influence of ... En savoir plus

Traffic noise pollution has represented a significant challenge for modern societies, requiring the development of innovative noise mitigation strategies. In the last decades, intensive research has been developed into the design and evaluation of noise barriers but there still lacks a ... En savoir plus

Smouldering is flameless combustion which depends on an exothermic surface reaction occurring within a porous medium. It is harnessed by engineers to destroy organic liquid wastes in soil as the technology Self-sustaining Treatment for Active Remediation (STAR). During this remediation ... En savoir plus

Liquid atomization relies on a variety of forces that disturb the surface of the liquid. In the case of flow-blurring (FB) atomization, turbulent structures are induced within the liquid channel to achieve this effect. It is known that the transition from the conventional flow-focusing ... En savoir plus
