Thawing processes of raw tuna are widely used as a unit operation dedicated to the canning industry. At the industrial scale, the water immersion process remains the main relevant process for thawing large tuna fishes. The fish is then butchered and the flesh obtained is precooked before ...

Energy loss from fluids flowing across long distances presents a problem in many applications. In the oil and gas industry, for example, crude oil can change in viscosity when modest changes in temperature are realized. This can lead to added pumping power requirement and thus more heat ...

High temperature thermodynamic data are crucial for a wide variety of applications in nuclear and aeronautic domains as well as material production processes like glass formation or casting. Contactless acquisition methods are preferred to avoid chemical interactions with the container. ... Read More
The blast furnace is a counter flow reactor to produce pig iron. The molten pig iron and byproduct slag are accumulated at the hearth of the furnace, from where they are tapped regularly. The blast furnace has to stay continuously in operation for many years to prevent solidification of ... Read More
Cake batters are complex fat-in-water emulsions with four bulk phases (aqueous, fat, gas, and solid starch granules). The process of cake baking is very complex since a change in thermo-physical properties of batter take place during this process. The aim of this project is to develop an ... Read More
Indoor thermal comfort has become a hot topic as energy saving raises the public attention. Accurate thermal flow prediction in an indoor environment and its influence on human provides a critical background to the development of comfort-providing yet energy-saving solutions. This study ...

Heat transfer from human body to the environment through clothing layer depends on many factors such as environmental conditions, thermal properties of clothing and size and shape of enclosed air layers (air layers between body surface and clothing). In clothing science, most numerical ... Read More
This talk communicates a pseudo-dynamic approach to solve nonlinear stationary equations exhibiting soft bifurcations. The procedure consists in passing from the stationary partial differential equation - to an artificially-built pseudo-time dependent one. We construct the latter in ... Read More
Thermal energy storage systems receive notable attention within the framework of energy management due to their ability of bridging thermal energy demand and supply, thus leading to an overall efficiency increase. The key component in such systems are materials which convert ... Read More
Surface engineering is a key technology used in a wide range of sectors in industry. Among other techniques, it involves adding functionality to a surface. This can be performed by creating a specific topography to a surface using laser texturing. The objective of the work presented in ... Read More
