Autoignition of n-heptane in a turbulent co-flowing jet
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
N-heptane autoignition in turbulent co-flowing jets with preheated air is studied using the one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model. The simulations are designed to investigate the effects of molecular and turbulent transports ...
Numerical investigation of rotating stall in centrifugal compressor with vaned and vaneless diffuser
(
Science Press
, 2015 , Article)
This study presents a numerical simulation of the stall and surge in a centrifugal compressor and presents a descriptionof the stall development in two different cases. The first case is for a compressor with vaneless ...
Optimal design of hybrid renewable energy systems in buildings with low to high renewable energy ratio
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
We develop a simulation-based meta-heuristic approach that determines the optimal size of a hybrid renewable energy system for residential buildings. This multi-objective optimization problem requires the advancement of a ...
Self-organized TiO2 nanotube layer on Ti–6Al–7Nb for biomedical application
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
In the present study, a self-organized nanotube TiO2 layer on Ti–6Al–7Nb was fabricated. The influence of acidic electrolytes including glycerol (G) and ethylene glycol (EG) on the anodization, microstructural features and ...
Constitutive analysis for the quantification of hardness decay in a superlattice CrN/NbN hard-coating
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
In the present study, a constitutive analysis of the evolution of the mechanical response of a CrN/NbN superlattice coating exposed to high temperature has been performed. Parametric approaches were used to obtain a single ...
