[1]Dept. of Mechanical, Aerospace and Biomedical Eng., The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN
[2]Research Reactors Division, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN

The High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is an 85 MW, light-water moderated, research reactor that operates at low temperature and high pressure. The HFIR is presently scheduled to convert from a high enriched uranium fuel (HEU) to a low enriched ... Read More

Simulation of Microwave Heating of Porous Media Coupled with Heat, Mass and Momentum Transfer

J. Subbiah[1], J. Chen[1], K. Pitchai[1], S. Birla[1], D. Jones[1]
[1]University of Nebraska, Lincoln, NE, USA

A microwave heating model coupled with heat, mass, and momentum transfer is needed to fully understand the microwave heating process. In this study a comprehensive 3D model was developed for studying the interaction of microwave with the food. The model includes physics of Maxwell’s ... Read More

Modelling Heat and Mass Transfer in Microreactor for Methanol to Hydrocarbons

P. A. Delou [1,3], V. Degirmenci [2,3],
[1] Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil
[2] University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
[3] Queen’s University Belfast, Belfast, United Kingdom

Recently, increasing availability of natural gas, due to the shale gas, raises the attention to the conversion of methane. Methanol-to-Hydrocarbons reaction (MTH) plays an important role in this route where methanol synthesized through syngas is converted into hydrocarbons, such as ... Read More

Influence of Thermal Conductivity and Plasma Pressure on Temperature Distribution and Acoustical Eigenfrequencies of High-Intensity Discharge Lamps

Numerical Simulations Demonstrate Safe Vitrification and Warming of Embryos Using the Rapid-i™ Device

B.O.J. Johansson[1][2], Y.A. Tarakanov[1], H.J. Lehmann[2], and S.P. Apell[1]

[1]Department of Applied Physics, Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden
[2]Vitrolife Sweden AB, Västra Frölunda, Sweden

During cryopreservation of human embryos, ice crystal formation in the embryos or in surrounding media may cause cryodamage to them and can be lethal. A strategy to avoid this is the vitrification procedure when the embryo and the surrounding medium undergo the transition to glassy state ... Read More

Simulation Enquiries on Energy Transfer Efficiency in Stored Fluids

E. Zinterl, and G. Jakopic
JOANNEUM RESEARCH Forschungsgesellschaft mbH,
MATERIALS-Institute for Surface Technologies and Photonics
Weiz, Austria

Heating or cooling of stored fluids by thermal energy exchange with the enclosing walls may be enhanced by improving the efficiency of energy transfer; energy loss to the ambient is equalized for all simulations. Buoyancy driven internal natural convective flow is assumed to be the main ... Read More

Rheological Behaviour of Biphasic Material

P. Lamy-Bracq[1], J. Leroy[2], and C. Coulouarn[1]
[1]NEXTER Munitions, Bourges, France
[2]ENSI Bourges, Bourges, France

The rheological behaviour of a biphasic material is quite difficult to model because of the difficulties to represent the evolution of the space position of each solid particle in the solid matrix. The first part of this study consider an equivalent material by homogeneisation method. ... Read More
