Thermo-mechanical model of spindles

TL;DR: In this article, a Finite-element-based thermo-mechanical model of spindles with rolling bearings is presented, which predicts temperature distribution and thermal growth, as well as bearing stiffness and contact loads, under specified operating conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal behavior in solar air heater channel fitted with combined rib and delta-winglet

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of combined ribs and delta-winglet type vortex generators (DWs) on forced convection heat transfer and friction loss behaviors for turbulent airflow through a solar air heater channel are experimentally investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal conditions affecting heat transfer in FDM/FFE: a contribution towards the numerical modelling of the process

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the contribution of various thermal phenomena developed during the manufacturing sequence, including convection and radiation with the environment, conduction with support and between adjacent filament, radiation between adjacent filaments and convection with entrapped air.
Journal ArticleDOI

Review on urban tree modelling in CFD simulations: Aerodynamic, deposition and thermal effects

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the current parameterizations developed and implemented within Computational Fluid Dynamics models for the study of the effects linking vegetation, mainly trees, to urban air quality and thermal conditions is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

A numerical study of auto-ignition in turbulent lifted flames issuing into a vitiated co-flow

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a numerical study of auto-ignition in simple jets of a hydrogen-nitrogen mixture issuing into a vitiated co-flowing stream.
