Street grids for efficient district cooling systems in high-density cities

The feasibility of district cooling systems is linked to their efficiency, which is associated with their capital and operational costs. For reasons of ownership and maintenance, the piping network commonly follows the city's street layout. This paper exam ...

Electron flux and pressure dynamic in the LHC vacuum pilot sector as a function of beam parameters and beam pipe properties

Ambrogio Fasoli, Elena Buratin, Vincent Baglin

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is affected by the electron cloud (EC) phenomenon that can provoke beam instabilities, detrimental heat loads and pressure increases in the vacuum system. An innovative dedicated system called vacuum pilot sector (VPS) provi ...

Design Concept and Thermal & x2013;Mechanical Analysis of the Optical Mirror (M3) for the ITER ECH Upper Launcher

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Avelino Mas Sanchez

The mirror M3 is a part of the in-vessel quasi-optical beam propagation system for the ITER electron cyclotron heating upper launcher (ECHUL). The millimeter waves are guided through fixed mirror sets (M1, M2, and M3) and the front steering mirror set (M4) ...

Fluid–structure interaction in pipe coils during hydraulic transients

Anton Schleiss, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, David Ferràs Segura

The paper presents the analysis of fluid–structure interaction occurring during hydraulic transients in pipe coils by means of a four-equation model. The purpose is to understand and describe the effect of the coil movement on the transient wave. The four- ...

Fluid-structure interaction during hydraulic transients in pressurized pipes : experimental and numerical analyses

David Ferràs Segura

The aim of the present research is to identify, describe and quantify the principal mechanic-hydraulic relationships during hydraulic transients in pressurized pipe flows in view of improving pipe design and reduce pipe and system failure. Phenomena affect ...

Two-phase flow patterns in U-bends and their contiguous straight tubes for different orientations, tube and bend diameters

John Richard Thome, Ricardo Lima

In two-phase systems there are many singularities in piping systems, one of which in particular are U-bends (also called 180 degrees return bends or U-tubes) found very often in air conditioning coils, refrigerant systems, etc. Contrary to the literature c ...

Hydrodynamics of the free surface flow in Pelton turbine buckets

Alexandre Perrig

The design of Pelton turbines has always been more difficult than that of reaction turbines, and their performances lower. Indeed, the Pelton turbines combine 4 types of flows: (i) confined, steady-state flow in the piping systems and injector, (ii) free w ...
