A new bioinspired method for pressure and flow sensing based on the underwater air-retaining surface of the backswimmer Notonecta

Goran Lovric

In technical systems, static pressure and pressure changes are usually measured with piezoelectric materials or solid membranes. In this paper, we suggest a new biomimetic principle based on thin air layers that can be used to measure underwater pressure c ...

Gravity currents are often modelled by means of shallow water equations (SWEs). In these models, simplifications such as the consideration of a constant layer-averaged density are common. This note presents the complete and general derivation of a 2D depth ...

Soft pneumatic actuator (SPA) based devices often use heuristic approaches for designing the power and control system, which are not necessarily optimized for the application. Especially in portable applications, due to constraints on the overall size and ...

Two-phase flow phenomena in hydraulic turbines and pump-turbines operating in synchronous condenser mode

Elena Vagnoni

Hydraulic turbines and pump-turbines are often required to operate in particular conditions at which they consume active power. To keep the power consumption at a minimum, it is necessary to dewater the runner to reduce the mechanical torque. One of these ...

Rotating air-water ring in the vaneless gap of a pump-turbine operating in condenser mode

François Avellan, Elena Vagnoni, Loïc Andolfatto, Pierre Leroy

The rotating air-water ring, featuring a bubbly flow, in the vaneless gap of a reduced scale physical model of a pump-turbine operating in dewatered condition is investigated. High speed visualizations are performed together with pressure fluctuation measu ...

The aim of this study is to derive accurate models for quantities characterizing the dynamics of droplets of non-vanishing viscosity in capillaries. In particular, we propose models for the uniform-film thickness separating the droplet from the tube walls, ...

An experimental study on flow boiling pressure drop in multi-microchannel evaporators with different refrigerants

John Richard Thome, Houxue Huang

A key parameter in designing two-phase flow systems for the cooling of high heat flux electronics is the pressure drop in microchannel evaporators. As a result, an experimental study was performed to investigate the flow boiling pressure drop of refrigeran ...

Dynamics of the precessing vortex rope and its interaction with the system at Francis turbines part load operating conditions

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry, Andres Müller, Keita Yamamoto, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior

At part load conditions, Francis turbines experience the formation of a cavitation vortex rope at the runner outlet whose precession acts as a pressure excitation source for the hydraulic circuit. This can lead to hydro-acoustic resonances characterized by ...

System for Adjusting Pressure Locally on the Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Daniel Grivon

The invention relates to a system for adjusting pressure locally acting on the skin. Said system includes a set of adjacent modules distributed so as to form a layer. Each module includes a cushion capable of changing shape and comprising a cavity, a valve ...

We here report a detailed high-pressure infrared transmission study of BiTeCl and BiTeBr. We follow the evolution of two band transitions: the optical excitation beta between two Rashba-split conduction bands, and the absorption. across the band gap. In th ...
