Performance Evaluation of the 19th Century Clipper Ship Cutty Sark: A Comparative Study

C. Tonry[1], M. Patel[1], C. Bailey[1], W. Davies[1], J. Harrap[1], E. Kentley[1], P. Mason[1]
[1]University of Greenwich, London, UK

The Cutty Sark, built in 1869 in Dumbarton, is the last intact composite tea clipper ship [1]. One of the last tea clippers built she took part in the tea races back from China. These races caught the public imagination of the day and were widely reported in newspapers [2]. They ... Read More

Geologic Carbon Storage: Implications of Two-Phase Flow on Injection-Induced Stress on Faults

S. Prasun [1], S. Kim [2], S. A. Hosseini [3],
[1] Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA, USA
[2] Department of Civil Engineering University of Nebraska - Lincoln, Omaha, NE, USA
[3] Bureau of Economic Geology, University of Texas - Austin, Austin, TX, USA

Geologic carbon storage that involves injecting carbon dioxide (CO2) into a subsurface sequestration site provides the vital approach for reducing CO2 emissions into atmosphere and thus addressing climate change issue. One challenge associated with CO2 geologic storage is that pore ... Read More

Two-Dimensional COMSOL Simulation of Heavy-Oil Recovery by Electromagnetic Heating

M. Carrizales[1], and L.W. Lake[1]

[1]The University of Texas at Austin, University Station, Austin, Texas, USA

Introducing heat to the formation has proven to be an effective way of lowering the oil viscosity of heavy oils by raising the temperature in the formation. The application of electrical energy has gained more interest during the last decade because it offers fewer restrictions for its ... Read More

Effect of Interfacial Charge on the Drop Deformation under the Application of Oscillatory Electric Field.

R. Patil[1], and V. A. Juvekar[1]
[1] Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Maharashtra

Study of interaction of drops and bubbles with electric field is important for understanding the physics involved in various physical phenomenas and industrial processes. Important applications arise in colloidal systems (Miller and Scriven, 1970), meteorology and cloud physics (Sartor, ... Read More

High Temperature Process Simulation

O. Geoffroy, and H. Rouch
INOPRO, Villard de Lans, France

The crystal growth industry uses high temperature processes. To improve production efficiency, a good knowledge of thermal effects is necessary. We show in this article a methodology to get reliable data by mixing simplified models, sensitivity studies and parameters adjustments. The ... Read More

Study of 3D Focused Droplet Generation in a 2D Flow Focusing Microfluidic Geometry

A. Mohan [1], P. Gupta [2], T. Saiyed [2], Dr. A. Prabhakar [1],
[1] Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India
[2] Centre for Cellular and Molecular Platforms, Bangalore, Karnataka, India

We have chosen droplet-based microfluidics as a platform for single cell analysis using the encapsulation technique. For this, we study the water in oil droplets formation inside a 2D microfluidic flow focusing geometry designed. We have performed Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) ... Read More

Multiscale Resin Impregnation Modeling in a Bidirectional Composite Laminate

G. Salkar [1], B. Kr Mishra [1], M. Jayaraman [1], S. Manian [1]
[1] National Centre for Aerospace Innovation and Research, Mumbai, India

Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), is a closed mold reinforced polymer composite molding process where the resin is infused under a pressure gradient. The liquid resin is infused through the dry preform and displaces air to saturate the preform. One of the governing parameters in an RTM ... Read More

A Black-Oil Model for Primary and Secondary Oil-Recovery in Stratified Petroleum Reservoirs

A. Dollari [1], C. Chatzichristos [1], A. Yiotis [1],
[1] National Center for Scientific Research Demokritos, Greece

Black-oil simulators are commonly used in petroleum reservoir engineering for the prediction of oil production, especially during the earlier stages of oil-field exploitation, while also serving to guide pressure maintenance strategies in the longer term. Such models account for fluid ... Read More

Level Set Method for Fully Thermal-Mechanical Coupled Simulations of Filling in Injection and Micro-Injection Molding Process

[1]Pôle Européen de Plasturgie, Bellignat, France
[2]SIMTEC, Grenoble, France
[3]INSA de Lyon, Site de Plasturgie, Bellignat, France

In this work we tackle a more theoretical aspect of micro-injection molding, to better understand physics during the process, through numerical simulations of cavity filling. We developed a two phase flow approach by the use of COMSOL Multiphysics®. In a first step, a Level Set model is ... Read More
