    Biogas generation plants using organic waste are a daily reality that can be observed in different areas of waste disposal that exist in many cities of the world. In fact, the generation of biogas through anaerobic ...
  • Urbina, Rafael J.; Rojas-Solorzano, L.; Blanco, Armando J. (Second International Tunnel Safety Forum, Lyon, April 2009, 2009-04)
    This work aims to the modeling of CO transport in one section considered critical of the Boqueron I tunnel, located on the outskirts of Caracas, the capital city of Venezuela, with a scenario where vehicles are stopped ...
  • Arevalo, Angela; Montilla, Gonzalo; Rojas-Solorzano, L.; Reyes, Miguel; Marín, Juan (CIMENICS MF-185-2006, 2006)
    The transient free surface flow within a 1:30 model of the intake (penstock) to Power House II of Guri Hydro-Power Plant (Venezuela) is studied. The geometry of the model includes a reservoir of 4.31 meters upstream the ...
  • Hernández, Franz H.; Blanco, Armando J.; Rojas-Solorzano, L. (Proceedings of FEDSM2008 8th Symposium on Applications in Computational Fluid Dynamics August 17-20, Jacksonville, FL, 2008-08-17)
    Liquid-solid two-phase flows are found in numerous operations in the chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical and many other industries. In numerous cases, the mixture or slurry that flows is composed by a suspension of solid ...
  • Riera-Ortiz, Jaime; Zeppieri, Suzana; Rojas-Solorzano, L.; Derjani, Sylvana (2011)
    Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is employed to simulate the air-water system in a spouted column with a draft tube. Numerical results of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations using the k-s and k-w two-equation ...
  • Pineda, Saira F.; Blanco, Armando J.; Rojas-Solorzano, L. (Proceedings of FEDSM2009 ASME 2009 Fluids Engineering Division Summer Meeting August 2-5, 2009, Vail, Colorado USA, 2009-08-02)
    Flows in rivers, floodplains and coastal zones are very complex due to uneven bottom topography and irregular boundaries of the flow domain. In particular, when the flow shows strong gradients in water depth and velocity ...
  • Rojas-Solórzano, Luis R. (Nazarbayev University School of Engineering and Digital Sciences, 2017-07-13)
  • F., Vittori; Rojas-Solorzano, L.; Pavageau, M. (Memorias del Congreso ASME USB 2011: IX CONGRESO ANUAL DE INGENIERÍA ASME USB 2011 03, 04 Y 05 de junio, 2011, Caracas - Venezuela, 2011)
    Impinging plane jets are flow configurations with applications in many fields. The ability of several turbulence models to simulate this kind of flow was assessed. The numerical results were compared with the data of Cooper ...
  • Sagintayev, Zhanay (Nazarbayev University School of Engineering and Digital Sciences, 2018-04-13)
    Climatic and anthropogenic distortions have impacted the enviroment and increased the probabilities of disaster events worldwide, including Kazakhstan. Water resources in Central Asia are generated at high mountains with ...
