The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in immune surveillance, fluid balance, and the transport of immune cells. Lymph nodes, acting as filtration and immune activation hubs, are essential in detecting and responding to pathogens. Computational modeling of lymph node function offers ... En savoir plus

A new type of radiator with a package of combs, to gain a larger area for heat exchange, instead of trapezoidal convector plates, is investigated. The main aim is to find the optimal comb diameter. To solve this problem, CFD (computational fluid dynamics) with COMSOL Multiphysics is ... En savoir plus

In the nuclear fuel industry, the dry conversion process is employed to transform crystalline UF6 to UO2 powder, in order to produce fuel pellets. The quality of the finished product highly depends on the process input parameters, and it is imperative to understand accurately the full ... En savoir plus

This study focuses on comparing various fluid dynamic models for analyzing airflows within the cooking chamber of an oven. The comparison is conducted in three steps. First, a study of the fan directly connected to a test tube in suction mode, discharging radially into free space. ... En savoir plus

This communication reports on a numeric fluid dynamics simulation on a pipe flow model. The basic background is to determine the velocity of a flowing fluid in a pipe by using the Thermal Time-Of-Flight (TTOF) method on water. The visualization of the temperature and velocity ... En savoir plus

Study of interaction of drops and bubbles with electric field is important for understanding the physics involved in various physical phenomenas and industrial processes. Important applications arise in colloidal systems (Miller and Scriven, 1970), meteorology and cloud physics (Sartor, ... En savoir plus

Numerical simulation of 3D printing processes is complex because it requires tracking the free surface of the ink while considering the (relative) horizontal and vertical movements of the system. By coupling the Navier-Stokes equations with the level set method (i.e., Two-phase flow ... En savoir plus

Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) drying is a cutting-edge, non-thermal drying technique that leverages high electric field to enhance water removal from moist materials via corona wind generation. EHD drying encompasses two fundamental phenomena: corona wind generation and the drying process ... En savoir plus

The authors present a closer look on the Single-Well Injection-Withdrawal Experiment (SWIW) or Push-Pull Experiments and its ability to determine the groundwater velocity, as one of the major parameters concerning reservoir management and underground reservoir characterization. The flow ... En savoir plus

Drilling horizontal wells (HWs) has recently received renewed attentions with the increasing trend in exploitation of tight gas reservoirs. An accurate estimation of productivity of such systems using a numerical simulator is a challenging task, because its 3D simulation requires a fine ... En savoir plus
