The integration of a Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system in District Heating (DH) networks allows increasing the share of renewables in the energy scheme, but it requires a proper pre-design phase in which the modelling of the TES system is adequately driven. The main purpose of this ... Read More
ZF-Friedricshafen AG is one of the biggest supplier of Automatic Gear Shifters for the modern cars and ZF-Automatic Gear Shifter needs sensing of five or seven positions (e.g. P, R, N, D, S) and (M+, M-) etc. Hall Sensors and Inductive Sensors are two automatic choices for such ... Read More
Metal foams are interesting materials with many potential uses. They are characterized by a cellular structure represented by a metal (or a metal alloy) and gas voids inside. A common metallic cellular material is a solid sponge, also known as open cell metal foam. Due to their intrinsic ... Read More
The construction of a superconducting aircraft motor demonstrator is underway under ASuMED project. Magnetized stacks of commercial superconducting tapes will be applied in a rotor in place permanent magnets. The rotor will be cooled with liquid hydrogen down to approximately 20K to ... Read More
Water transport in the public sewer system is often based on open channel flow, e.g. in a DN100 drainage pipe. Especially for low flow rates of less than 10 mL/s and with water levels of less than 4 mm, flow sensors are hardly available. In order to enable the measuring of very low ... Read More
Evonetix is a Cambridge-based start-up company working on a revolutionary new technology to synthesize high-fidelity DNA at scale. Our technology is based on a silicon MEMS chip with a large number of reaction sites that facilitate multiple parallel synthesis channels. We operate a ... Read More
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the thermal behavior of a plasma micro-discharge in two different gases within a silicon micro hole (close to hundred micrometers in size). The first stage of the simulation based on the Heat Transfer module can return very promising ... Read More
Despite its wide use in industrial or culinary conditions, contact heating has not been extensively studied in the literature devoted to food products. This is mainly due to the difficulty in measuring in a non-invasive way the heat flux transferred as well as the thermal contact ... Read More
The heat and fluid flow calculation inside the melt pool in welding processes is a complex challenge. It can be useful to predict defects in the weld seam or to study the influence of some process parameters. Even if the required equations are mastered over the last few years, the cost ... Read More
A wide variety of engineering applications, such as electronics, solar collectors, and internal combustion engines produce heat. This heat can be a positive or negative aspect for a particular application. Enhancing heat transfer has encouraged many researchers to investigate various ... Read More
