Visualization and modelling of dynamic flow in fibrous preforms for liquid composite molding

Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

Nowadays, Liquid Composite Molding techniques are often used to manufacture high quality fiber reinforced composite parts at a relatively low cost. These involve an infiltration process, in which a liquid resin is forced to ingress into a dry fibrous porou ...

Numerical simulation of immiscible incompressible viscous, viscoelastic and elastic multiphase flows

Léo Aurélio Diserens

A unified numerical framework is presented for the modelling of multiphasic viscoelasticand elastic flows. The rheologies considered range from incompressible Newtonian orOldroyd-B viscoelastic fluids to Neo-Hookean elastic solids. The model is formulatedi ...

Multi-Scale Study of High-Temperature Latent Heat Storage With Metallic Phase Change Materials

Nithin Mallya

Energy storage is a central issue in the green economy with half the global end energy usage being heat. Latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) provides an energy dense heat storage solution with a well-defined discharge temperature. Utilizing low-cost ...

Effective stress jump across membranes

François Gallaire, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

A macroscopic condition to simulate the interaction between an incompressible fluid flow and a permeable micro-structured rigid surface (i.e. a thin membrane) has been developed using multiscale homogenization and matching asymptotic expansions between the ...

Transmissivity of rock fractures: Normal loading and shear reactivation

Monia Woehner

Enhanced Geothermal Systems represent a major field of study in the context of renewable energy resources. To create extractable energy from those reservoirs, a high enough fluid flow rate for production needs to be achieved. This fluid flow rate is direct ...

Design and optimization of a high-temperature latent heat storage unit

Sophia Haussener, Ehsan Rezaei, Alberto Ortona, Maurizio Barbato

High-temperature latent heat thermal energy storage systems offer compact storage solutions, benefiting from the large latent heat of phase change materials. Common challenges in their design process are the low thermal conductivity of the phase change mat ...
