A technical issue with fluid flow heating is the relatively small temperature increase as the fluid passes through the heating surface. The fluid does not spend enough time inside the heating source to significantly raise its temperature, despite the...

We examine the optimal mass transport problem in Rn between densities with transitioning compact support by considering the geometry of a continuous interpolating support boundary Γ in space-time within which the mass density evolves according...

Liquid films are often found in engineering applications with thicknesses ranging from micrometer scales to large scales with a wide range of applications. To optimize such systems, researchers have dedicated themselves to the development of new tech...

The theoretical basis for the Eddy Damped Markovian Anisotropic Closure (EDMAC) is formulated for two-dimensional anisotropic turbulence interacting with Rossby waves in the presence of advection by a large-scale mean flow. The EDMAC is as computatio...

The reliable transfer of bioprocesses from single-use bioreactors (SUBs) of different scales to conventional stainless steel stirred-tank bioreactors is of steadily growing interest. In this publication, a scale-up study for SUBs with volumes of 200...

This study aims to optimize the thermodynamic performance of a cold storage distribution box through the integration of a ventilation system. To achieve this goal, a prototype constructed from expanded polystyrene is developed, incorporating an activ...

Curved free shear layers emerge in many engineering problems involving complex flow geometries, such as the flow over a backward-facing step, flows with wall injection in a boundary layer, the flow inside side-dump combustors, or wakes generated by v...

This paper investigates the impact of contemporary lightbars on vehicle fuel efficiency with a focus on quantifying their effects on fuel consumption and exploring strategies to improve drag performance through modifications. Simulations showed an 8&...

This study aims to experimentally investigate the effects of parallel blade–vortex interaction (BVI) on the aerodynamic performances of an airfoil, in particular as a possible cause of blade stall, since similar effects have been observed in li...

In this study, we systematically explored how changing groove surfaces of iron oxide/water nanofluid could affect the pool boiling heat transfer. We aimed to investigate the effect of three types of grooves, namely rectangular, circular, and triangul...
