Parametric Investigation of the Common Geometry Shapes for Added Mass Calculation

J. H. Lee [1], A. Koushesh [1],
[1] American University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates

This work is aimed to demonstrate how variation of geometries' parameters would affect the fluid loading effect in water using COMSOL Multiphysics and compared with analytical data. When a structure is placed in water, the interaction between the water and the structure plays an ... Read More

Development of a Numerical Model for Large-Scale Seasonal Thermal Energy Storage for District Heating Systems

A. Tosatto[1], A. Dahash[1], F. Ochs[1], M. Bianchi Janetti[1]
[1]University of Innsbruck - Unit of Energy Efficient Buildings, Austria

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

Boundary Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian and Deformable Boundary Perturbation Method

J. Rivero-Rodriguez [1], B. Scheid [1],
[1] Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, Belgium

Partial differential equations on unknown domains is a mathematical problem that arises in many applications. Several examples can be easily found in the dynamics of free surfaces in fluid dynamics or in fluid-structure interactions. In many situations, large deformations are encountered ... Read More

Energy Harvesting in a Fluid Flow Using Piezoelectric Materials

M. Curatolo [1], M. La Rosa [1], P. Prestininzi [1],
[1] Roma Tre University, Rome, Italy

Energy harvesting from a fluid flow using piezoelectric materials is a relatively recent topic that has been investigated experimentally and numerically [1, 2]. Its possible application in natural water currents represents an interesting strategy to easily harvest renewable energy from ... Read More

Critical Temperature Control of Silicon Micro-Reactors for Lab-On-Chip Applications

S. Paul[1], A. Das[2], A. Bhattacharya[2]
[1]CRNN,University of Calcutta, India
[2]Radio Physics and Electronics, University of Calcutta, India

The development of microfluidic components for implementation of a lab-on-chip system requires both fluid movements under a controlled environment as well as sensitive detection. This work involves the design and simulation of micro-reactors with integrated heating as well as optical ... Read More

Numerical Simulation of Coupled Fluid-Solid Interaction in Digital Rock Samples

V. Das [1], T. Mukerji [1], G. Mavko [1],
[1] Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA

Digital rock physics (DRP) is an emerging field where a rock sample is imaged, relevant physical processes are simulated numerically on the digital rock sample, and the numerical solutions are used for understanding and interpreting the rock in different in-situ conditions. The use of ... Read More

Flow and Heat Transfer Through an Open Cell Metal Foam

B. Chine'[1], V. Mussi[2], A. Rossi[2]
[1]ITCR, Costa Rica Institute of Technology, Costa Rica
[2]Laboratorio MUSP, Macchine Utensili e Sistemi di Produzione, Italy

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

Static and Dynamic Deformations of a Reed Valve Immersed in Hydraulic Fluid

A. Chaudhuri[1]
[1]Los Alamos National Lab, Los Alamos, NM, USA

Metal reed valves are used for flow rectification in electrohydraulic pumps driven by smart materials at high frequencies but it is difficult to predict their behavior when the surrounding fluid has considerable inertia and viscosity. Simulation of this phenomenon involves modeling the ... Read More

Flotation Height in 'Air Hockey' Spatial Atomic Layer Deposition

J. Grasso [1], B. Willis [1],
[1] Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT, USA

Atomic layer deposition(ALD) is one proven method to deposit ultra-thin films. ALD is advantageous for its atomic-level thickness control and conformity; leading to high quality films. Slow deposition rates for conventional ALD contribute to the impracticality of utilization of this ... Read More

Air Damping Simulation of MEMS Torsional Paddle

N. Mahmoodi[1], C. J. Anthony[1]
[1]University of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK

Viscous damping has a significant effect on dynamic performance of the resonators operating within fluid. This work is aimed to find the viscous damping for MEMS torsional paddle operating in air. Interaction of moving structure with the fluid requires a complicated and challenging ... Read More
