(DOI: 10.1115/FEDSM2009-78014 Conference: ASME 2009 Fluids Engineering Division Summer Meeting, At Vail, Colorado USA, Volume: 1, 2009-08-02)The CDF methodology is applied to the study of the air flow around a 2-D car and its interaction with the cabin internal air. The flow visualization or computational works enable engineers to calculate different car ...

(7th International Exergy, Energy and Environment Symposium, Valenciennes, France; 04/2015, 2015-04)Solar power has significant potential to reduce reliance on conventional energy sources in South Africa. A prefeasibility study for a communal solar water heating system (SWHS) is performed for an apartment building in the ...
-
(7th International Exergy, Energy and Environment Symposium, 2015-04)In the family of the renewable technologies, photovoltaic (PV) systems today attract considerable attention (Dornfeldt, 2013). However, on-grid PV market is not a profitable sector by itself. It is dependent on the ...

(7th International Exergy, Energy and Environment Symposium, 2015-04)The technical and economic feasibility of the installation of a mini-hydroelectric power plant on El Valle River in Venezuela is assessed. Special attention is paid to modeling Venezuela’s energetic and economic scenarios. ...
-
(7th International Exergy, Energy and Environment Symposium, 2015-04)The industry sector is facing many challenges such as global competition, energy pricing, environmental impact amongst others. Consequently, the necessity of energy efficiency measures has become evident; framing the ...
-
(7th International Exergy, Energy and Environment Symposium, 2015-04)Clean energy technologies are beginning to receive attention in Nigeria to offset the increasing greenhouse gas emissions. These emissions are associated to the wide use of small-scale fossil-fuel-powered generators by ...
-
(The Electrochemical Society, 2013-10)Thermal modelling is presented here for a novel lithium-ion aqueous battery [1] using the commercial multi-physics package COMSOL with extensions consisting of an energy balance and temperature dependence of properties ...
-
(1997 ASME Fluids Engineering Division Summer Meeting, June 22-26, 1997-06-22)The main objective of this paper is to present the results of the experimental investigation of a Zarea-type torsional velocity-meter. For this, a torsional meter was designed, built and tested in the laboratory. The current ...

(SPE Latin American and Caribbean Petroleum Engineering Conference, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 20 – 23 June 2005, 2005-06-20)The major objective of this work is to generate a mathematical model, allowing the prediction of mixture density, liquid holdup, the pressure gradient in the pipe and the real column size. This is useful for optimizing ...

(Proceedings of FEDSM2007 2007 ASME/JSME Fluids Engineering Division Summer Meeting July 30-August 2, 2007, San Diego, California, USA, 2007-06-30)Most granular flows at environmental conditions are unsteady and exhibit a complex physical behavior. Dune formation and migration in the desert are controlled not only by the flow of saltating particles over the sand bed, ...
-
(SPE International Thermal Operations and Heavy Oil Symposuim, Porlamar, Venezuela, 12–17 March 2001., 2001-03-12)The numerical simulation of a static T-type mixer for turbulent mixing of miscible liquids is reported. The simulation was carried out using CFX, a commercial computational fluid dynamic simulator. The effect of mixing ...
-
(2010)In this study the verification and validation of a 2nd order turbulence closure model is performed for an experimental compound channel flow, where the velocity field was measured by a Laser Doppler Velocimeter. Detailed ...
