Alternative Designs to Harness Natural Convection in Flow Batteries

A. Ansari [1], S. Kumar [1],
[1] Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, Karnataka, India

The earlier work in our group has established that natural convection plays a dominant role in SLRFB. We used it to run a battery in which interestingly, the contents are agitated for brief spells when no current flows through it. The present work focuses on electrode configurations ... Read More

Electric Field Induced Patterning in Thin Films

A. Atta [1], S. Dwivedi [1], Vivek [1], R. Mukherjee [1],
[1] Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, Kharagpur, West Bengal, India

Interfacial structures/pattern, especially with small-scale dimensions, are important to the chemistry of materials in determining the optical, electrical, mechanical, or other physical properties of novel materials. Polymers are often used for surface patterning. The diversity, the ... Read More

Thermal Simulations of Naturally Ventilated Buildings

C. K. Kuruba [1], R. C. Thiagarajan [1],
[1] ATOA Scientific Technologies Pvt Ltd, Bangalore, Karnataka, India.

Ventilation is mainly used to control indoor air quality and for the purpose of thermal comfort by diluting and displacing pollutants. Because of the effects it has on health, comfort, and serviceability, indoor air quality in our homes is becoming of increasing concern to many people. ... Read More

Process Modeling and Optimization of Design Parameters in a Falling Film Plate and Frame Evaporator

A. Donaldson [1], A. Thimmaiah [2],
[1] Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
[2] National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Mangalore, Karnataka, India.

COMSOL Multiphysics® software is used to explore the impact of distributor width on the film thickness, and the resulting sensitivity of overall thermal efficiency in a plate and frame triple-effect evaporator. A stable film is crucial to maintain a minimum wetting rate, to circumvent ... Read More

Modeling Darcian and Non-Darcian Porous Media with COMSOL Multiphysics® Software

A. Kumar [1], S. Pramanik [2], M. Mishra [1],
[1] Indian Institute of Technology Ropar, Rupnagar, Punjab, India
[2] Indian Institute of Technology Ropar, Rupnagar, Punjab, India; Nordita, SE-10691, Stockholm, Sweden

Darcian and non-Darcian porous media are characterized by the porosity of medium. To capture miscible viscous fingering in both types of porous media, a new model built with COMSOL® software is presented by coupling of two different physics interfaces (hydrodynamics and transport of ... Read More

Modeling of Radial Source Flow in Porous Media: Miscible Viscous Fingering Patterns

V. Sharma [1], S. Pramanik [2], M. Mishra [1],
[1] Indian Institute of Technology Ropar, Rupnagar, India
[2] Indian Institute of Technology Ropar, Rupnagar, India; Nordita, SE-10691 Stockholm, Sweden.

COMSOL Multiphysics® software was used to model radial source flow in two dimensional homogeneous porous media. Two-Phase Darcy's Law (tpdl) is used to model miscible viscous fingering. Fingering patterns obtained on using different mesh are discussed. Evolution from 'flowers' to ... Read More

Numerical Analysis of Electroosmotic Flow through Capillaries

J. Adamek [1], L. Fromme [1]
[1] University of Applied Sciences Bielefeld, Department of Engineering Sciences and Mathematics, Bielefeld, Germany

In the last decades, the topic of microfluidic Electroosmotic Pumps (EOP) gained the attention of scientists all over the world. One of the greatest advantages of the electroosmotic pumps is the fact, that there are no moving parts. With the effect of electro osmosis, it is possible to ... Read More

Thermo-fluiddynamic Modeling of Laser Beam-Matter Interaction in Selective Laser Melting

K.-H. Leitz [1], P. Singer [1], A. Plankensteiner [1], B. Tabernig [1], H. Kestler [1], L. S. Sigl [1],
[1] Plansee SE, Reutte, Austria

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) offers great potential for future manufacturing technology. In order to extend its applicability for the processing of high melting materials like molybdenum fundamental process understanding is required. This can be obtained by multiphysical simulations ... Read More

Multiphysical Modelling of Keyhole Formation during Dissimilar Laser Welding

I. Tomashchuk [1], I. Bendaoud [1], P. Sallamand [1], E. Cicala [1], S. Lafaye [2], M. Almuneau [2],
[1] Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire Carnot de Bourgogne (ICB), UMR 6303 CNRS - Université de Bourgogne – Franche Comté, France
[2] Laser Rhône-Alpes, Le Fontanil (Grenoble), France

Time-dependent multiphysical simulation of pulsed and continuous laser welding of dissimilar metals, based on Moving Mesh (ALE) approach, is proposed. Strong coupling between heat transfer, laminar compressible flow and ALE is used. The model was validated for a case of single ... Read More

Secondary Flow of Liquid-liquid Two-Phase Fluids in a Pipe Bend

M. Ayala [1], P. Santos [2], G. Hamester [2], O. Ayala [3],
[1] Department of Mechanical Engineering, Universidad de Oriente, Puerto La Cruz, Venezuela
[2] Brazil Scientific Mobility Program, CAPES, Brasilia DF, Brazil
[3] Department of Engineering Technology, Old Dominion University, Norfolk, VA, USA

As the flow passed through the pipe, and entered the bend, various vortical structures appear, meaning that there is a secondary flow emerging. Also while the flow is in the bend gravity forces affect distinctively its behavior as long as the centrifugal force is not greater. From this ... Read More
