Robust design using multiobjective optimisation and artificial neural networks with application to a heat pump radial compressor

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Soheyl Massoudi, Cyril Picard

Although robustness is an important consideration to guarantee the performance of designs under deviation, systems are often engineered by evaluating their performance exclusively at nominal conditions. Robustness is sometimes evaluated a posteriori throug ...

Response of alpine stream biofilms to climate change induced stressors

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Nicola Deluigi, David Touchette, Martina Gonzalez Mateu, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki

Alpine streams are expected to face an intensification of environmental stressors due to climate change. Being at the interface of the vanishing cryosphere, alpine streams are particularly susceptible to increasing temperatures and to changing hydrology. A ...

Unmoderated molten salt reactors design optimisation for power stability

Andreas Pautz, Axel Guy Marie Laureau, Andrea Bellè

The critical region of unmoderated molten salt reactors consists in a cavity filled with a liquid fuel. The lack of internal structure implies a complex flow structure of the circulating fuel salt. A preliminary core shape optimization has been performed d ...

Turbulent transport regimes in the tokamak boundary

Maurizio Giacomin

The overall performance of a tokamak strongly depends on phenomena that take place in a thin region between the main plasma and the vessel wall, which is denoted as tokamak boundary. In fact, the formation of transport barriers in this region can significa ...

Physics-based estimates of drag coefficients for the impact pressure calculation of dense snow avalanches.

Christophe Ancey, Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Michael Lukas Kyburz

In avalanche engineering and hazard mapping, computing impact pressures exerted by avalanches on rigid structures has long been a difficult task that requires combining empirical equations, rules of thumb, engineering judgment and experience. Until the 199 ...

Planar Equilibria of an Elastic Rod Wrapped Around a Circular Capstan

Harmeet Singh

We present a study on planar equilibria of a terminally loaded elastic rod wrapped around a rigid circular capstan. Both frictionless and frictional contact between the rod and the capstan are considered. We identify three cases of frictionless contact - n ...

Flow Simulation of Gas Cyclone Separator at High Reynolds Number Using theElliptic-Relaxation Hybrid LES/RANS (ER-HRL) Model

Konstantin Mikityuk

In this paper, we investigate Wall-Modeled Large Eddy Simulation (WMLES) in a stairmand high-efficiency cyclone separator at two Reynolds numbers i.e. Re = 33,045 - 280,000. We compute the gas flow using the elliptic relaxation hybrid RANS/LES (ER-HRL). Th ...

Particle subgrid scale modeling in hybrid RANS/LES of turbulent channel flow at low to moderate Reynolds number

Konstantin Mikityuk

Particle dispersion in a periodic channel is studied using the elliptic relaxation hybrid RANS/LES (ER-HRL) model. This approach employs a four-equation linear eddy viscosity (LEV) model while in Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) mode near the wall, a ...

Modified snaking in plane Couette flow with wall-normal suction

Tobias Schneider, Sajjad Azimi

A specific family of spanwise-localised invariant solutions of plane Couette flow exhibits homoclinic snaking, a process by which spatially localised invariant solutions of a nonlinear partial differential equation smoothly grow additional structure at the ...

Interface Tracking Investigation of the Sliding Bubbles Effects on Heat Transfer in the Laminar Regime

Konstantin Mikityuk, Lubomír Bures

Helium gases are utilized to remove fission products from the molten salt fast reactor (MSFR) core during operation. Helium gases and other volatile fission products may be introduced into the intermediate heat exchanger channels. The effect of these gases ...
