Intrinsic toroidal rotation in the scrape-off layer of tokamaks

Paolo Ricci, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Sébastien Jolliet, Federico David Halpern, Annamaria Mosetto

The origin and nature of intrinsic toroidal plasma rotation in the scrape-off-layer (SOL) of tokamaks is investigated both analytically and through numerical simulations. It is shown that the equilibrium poloidal E x B flow, the sheath physics, and the pre ...

Flow simulation of a Pelton bucket using finite volume particle method

François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Christian Vessaz

The objective of the present paper is to perform an accurate numerical simulation of the high-speed water jet impinging on a Pelton bucket. To reach this goal, the Finite Volume Particle Method (FVPM) is used to discretize the governing equations. FVPM is ...

The vertical structure of eddy diffusivity in pure slope flows over smooth surfaces

Jiannong Fang, Marc Parlange, Marco Giovanni Giometto

Thermally driven slope flows are ubiquitous in nature and play a major role in regulating local microclimates in valleys, glaciers and ice-sheets. They control in large part surface momentum, heat and moisture fluxes, and their effects must therefore be ac ...

Switched Local Schedules for Diamond Networks

Christina Fragouli, Siddhartha Brahma, Ayan Sengupta

We consider a Gaussian diamond network where a source communicates with the destination through

n

non-interfering half-duplex relays. We focus on half-duplex schedules that utilize only local channel state information, i.e., each relay has access to its ...

Transient perturbation growth in time-dependent mixing layers

Cristobal Manuel Arratia Martinez

We investigate numerically the transient linear growth of three-dimensional (3D) perturbations in a homogeneous time-evolving mixing layer in order to identify which perturbations are optimal in terms of their kinetic energy gain over a finite, predetermin ...

Large Eddy Simulation of Particle Dynamics Inside a Differentially Heated Cavity

Christoph Bosshard

In nuclear safety, most severe accident scenarios lead to the presence of fission products in aerosol form in the closed containment atmosphere. It is important to understand the particle depletion process to estimate the risk of a release of radioactivity ...

Numerical simulation of a sailing boat

Matteo Lombardi

In this work, various aspects concerning the numerical simulation of a sailing boat are investigated. The attention is focused on simulation of the free-surface, the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) between wind and sails, and the dynamics of the whole bo ...

Forced and Self Oscillations of Hydraulic Systems Induced by Cavitation Vortex Rope of Francis Turbines

Sébastien Alligné

With economical energy market strategies based on instantaneous pricings of electricity as function of the demand or the predictions, operators harness more hydroelectric facilities to off-design operating points to cover the variations of the electricity ...

Identification of chemistry-dependent artifacts on gravimetric PM fine readings at the T1 site during the MILAGRO field campaign

Athanasios Nenes

As part of the MIRAGE (MILAGRO) study conducted 7-30 March 2006 in Mexico City and its Metropolitan Area (MCMA), fine particulate matter (PM2.5) was collected using two Tapered Element Oscillating Microbalance (TEOM) systems, and a Partisol instrument at t ...

Bank CEO incentives and the credit crisis

Rüdiger Fahlenbrach

We investigate whether bank performance during the recent credit crisis is related to chief executive officer (CEO) incentives before the crisis. We find some evidence that banks with CEOs whose incentives were better aligned with the interests of sharehol ...
