Three-dimensional OpenFOAM simulation to evaluate the thermal comfort of occupants, indoor air quality and heat losses inside an indoor swimming pool

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the thermo-ventilation study in turbulent regime of the airflow with heat and mass transfer in an indoor swimming pool, using the OpenFOAM (Open Field Operation and Manipulation) software.

A Novel Multi-Scale Domain Overlapping CFD/STH Coupling Methodology for Multi-Dimensional Flows Relevant to Nuclear Applications.

TL;DR: Results show that the presented domain overlapping coupling method is capable of adjusting pressure and velocity profiles of multi-dimensional system code solutions to match CFD solutions accurately and recommendations are laid out for further improving the coupling via advanced time stepping methods.

Determination of the Decay Exponent in Mechanically Stirred Isotropic Turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the decay exponent of isotropic homogeneous turbulence over a range of Reynolds numbers was investigated and it was shown that the resulting turbulence closely matched the theoretical predictions of Saffman (1967) at both high and low Reynolds numbers.

Numerical analysis on supercritical water heat transfer in a 2 × 2 rod bundle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out CFD analysis for supercritical water (SCW) heat transfer in a 2 × 2 rod bundle with three turbulence models, i.e. the SSG, the ω Reynolds stress model (ω-RSM), and the baseline Reynolds stress models (BSL-RSMs).

Model-based design of riblets for turbulent drag reduction

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of riblets as a volume penalization in the Navier-Stokes equations and the statistical response of the eddy-viscosity-enhanced linearized equations was used to quantify the effects of background turbulence on the mean velocity and skin-friction drag.

The prediction of laminarization with a two-equation model of turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the local turbulent viscosity is determined from the solution of transport equations for the turbulence kinetic energy and the energy dissipation rate, and the predicted hydrodynamic and heat-transfer development of the boundary layers is in close agreement with the measured behaviour.

The calculation of low-Reynolds-number phenomena with a two-equation model of turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present numerical predictions of various turbulent shear flows in which the structure of the viscous sublayer exerts appreciable influence on the flow, where the turbulence energy and its dissipation rate are calculated by way of transport equations which are solved simultaneously with the conservation equations for the mean flow.

Heat and mass transfer from rotating cones

TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer by convection from isothermal rotating cones is investigated experimentally by measuring the sublimation rate from naphthalene-coated cones and using the analogy between heat and mass transfer.
