Simulation of a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst Used in a NO_x Storage and Reduction system for Heavy Duty Trucks

C. Odenbrand, and E. Senar Serra
Department of Chemical Engineering, Lund University, Lund, Sweden

This work concerns the performance of an oxidation catalyst used in a NOx storage and reduction system. The oxidation of NO is the main objective of this study, where the presence of CO and propene has also been taken into account. Experimental data has been determined on a monolithic ... Read More

Modeling 2D and 3D of Hybrid Laser Nd:Yag - MIG Welding Processes

E. Le Guen[1], R. Fabbro[1], F. Coste[1], M. Carin[2], and P. Le Masson[2]
[1]LALP (CNRS)/GIP GERAILP, Arcueil, France
[2]LIMATB, Université de Bretagne Sud, Lorient, France

Hybrid laser-MIG arc welding has very interesting advantages compared to laser welding or arc welding used separately. It is known that improvement of productivity results in higher welding speeds, thicker welded materials, joint fit-up allowance, better stability of molten pool, and ... 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

Extended Physics Modeling of the Resin Flow During Vacuum Infusion Processes

J. Stolz [1], P. Fideu [2], A. Herrmann [1],
[1] Faserinstitut Bremen e.V., Bremen, Germany
[2] Airbus Operations GmbH, Hamburg, Germany

Vacuum infusion processes are well adapted for large composites parts and, therefore, widely used for the manufacturing purposes in several applications fields such as aviation or naval industry. Simply speaking single plies or a given fibrous reinforcement is pre-shaped and positioned ... Read More

Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling of the NASA Titan Wind Tunnel

S. E. H. Sakimoto [1, 2], D. M. Burr [3], S. L. Sutton [3],
[1] Space Science Institute, Boulder, CO, USA
[2] Department of Geology, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, USA
[3] Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, University of Tennessee - Knoxville, Knoxville, TN, USA

The equatorial region of Titan, the largest satellite of Saturn, has extensive expanses of aeolian dunes revealed in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and suggested to be composed of organics or organic-coated water ice. The dunes are among the youngest surface features and appear to ... Read More

Numerical Analysis of the Flow Structure in the Continuous Casting Two-strand Tundish

M. Warzecha [1], J. Jowsa [1], A. M. Hutny [1], P. Warzecha [1], T. Merder [2]
[1] Czestochowa University of Technology, Czestochowa, Poland
[2] Silesian University of Technology, Katowice, Poland

Calculations were carried out for the water model of the investigated tundish, represented on a scale 1:3. Numerical calculations enable to estimate the fluid flow velocities, pahtlines and other parameters. Calculations were done for two different grids. Based on the results, the flow ... Read More

Two-Phase Modeling of Gravity Drainage of Bitumen from Tar Sand Using In-Situ RF Electrical Heating

A. Hassanzadeh
Pyrophase Inc., Chicago, IL, USA

In-situ electrical heating technologies are among the most recent technologies used for bitumen recovery from tar sand and oil shale. These technologies have limited environmental impact because there is little disturbance of the land, and water and solvents are not used. Two-phase ... Read More

Numerical Optimization Strategy for Determining 3D Flow Fields in Microfluidics

A. Eden [1], M. Sigurdson [1], C. D. Meinhart [1], I. Mezic [1],
[1] University of California - Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara, CA, USA

Measurement of three dimensional, three component velocity fields is central to the development of effective micromixers for bioassays and lab-on-chip mixing applications. We present a hybrid experimental-numerical method for the generation of 3D flow information from 2D particle image ... Read More

Modeling of Transport Phenomena in Laser Welding of Steels

A. Métais [1], S. Matteï [2], I. Tomashchuk [2], S. Gaied [1]
[1] ArcelorMittal, Montataire, France
[2] Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire Carnot de Bourgogne, Université Bourgogne Franche Comté, France

Laser Welded Blank solutions enable to reduce vehicles weight and to optimize their crash performances by means of simultaneous tuning of different grades and thicknesses. The present work aims to characterize numerically and experimentally materials mixing during laser welding. For ... Read More

Numerical Simulations and Experimental Verification of Laser Welding of Nylon 6

Santosh Kumar Gupta [1], Sanjib Jaypuria [1], Dilip Kumar Pratihar [1], Partha Saha [1],
[1] Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, Kharagpur, West Bengal, India

Laser welding is often considered to be a superior technique over different conventional welding methods and has been gradually evolved as an efficient manufacturing process. It is a high energy density fabrication process and generally employed for fabricating intricate shapes/contours ... Read More
