Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
In this paper, we consider experimental data available for graphene-based nanolubricants to evaluate their convective heat transfer performance by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Single-phase models with temperature-dependent prope ...
The one-dimensional transient numerical code of JJ Cooling Innovation has been significantly improved to simulate the thermal/hydraulic performance of pulsating heat pipes (PHPs). Using a mechanistic approach, the liquid slug and vapor plug flows and their ...
This project aims at designing a laboratory-scale experiment to investigate the thermal performance of Fractures Thermal Energy Storage (FTES) systems. While previous field tests have focused on creating horizontal planar fractures at shallow depths, none ...
The use of evaporative cooling in the gas diffusion layer (GDL) of polymer electrolyte fuel cells has been proposed as a simple yet impactful solution to simultaneously provide the functionality of cell cooling, thanks to the dissipation of the latent heat ...
Current thermal comfort models used in practice do not consider physiological and psychological differences of people. With this respect, human thermo-physiology models (HTPM) are useful tools to assess human thermal comfort at local and overall levels of ...
Assimilating any nanostructure with a fractal, in the most general Mandelbrot's sense, non - differentiable behaviors in their dynamics on the heat transfer phenomena are analyzed. As such, nanostructure dynamics on the heat transfer in the form of Schrodi ...
A multi-scale numerical methodology for the assessment of radiation and optical characteristics of complex structured soot-contaminated snow layers was investigated first. The methodology accounted for the exact morphology at the various scales and utilize ...
The development of newer and more efficient cooling techniques to sustain the increasing power density of high-performance computing systems is becoming one of the major challenges in the development of microelectronics. In this framework, two-phase coolin ...
Several efforts have been spent in recent years to address the simulation challenges posed by the non-conventional design of Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs). One of the design specificities of MSRs is the volume heat source in the liquid fuel, which has been p ...
Dynamics of nucleate boiling are strongly affected by the formation and behaviour of the microlayer, a layer of liquid underneath growing bubbles. As a result of its minute thickness, very high heat fluxes occur within the microlayer and its evaporation co ...
