    Thermal Assessment of a Differentially Heated Nanofluid-Filled Cavity Containing an Obstacle

    Abdelilah Makaoui1, El Bachir Lahmer1,*, Jaouad Benhamou1,2, Mohammed Amine Moussaoui1, Ahmed Mezrhab1

    Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer, Vol.23, No.1, pp. 207-230, 2025, DOI:10.32604/fhmt.2024.060166 - 26 February 2025

    Abstract This study focuses on numerically investigating thermal behavior within a differentially heated cavity filled with nanofluid with and without obstacles. Numerical comparison with previous studies proves the consistency and efficacy of the lattice Boltzmann method associated with a single relaxation time and its possibility of studying the nanofluid and heat transfer with high accuracy. Key parameters, including nanoparticle type and concentration, Rayleigh number, fluid basis, and obstacle position and dimension, were examined to identify optimal conditions for enhancing heat transfer quality. Principal findings indicated that increasing the Rayleigh number boosts buoyancy forces and alters vortex More > Graphic Abstract

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.20, No.12, pp. 2775-2788, 2024, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2024.054498 - 23 December 2024

    Abstract Transporting and storing hydrogen is a complex technological task. A typical problem relates to the need to minimize the strength of fluid motion and heat transfer near the walls of the container. In this work this problem is tackled numerically assuming an infinite cavity of pipe square cross-section, located in a constant external temperature gradient. In particular, a method based on the application of vibrations to suppress the gravitational convection mechanism is explored. A parametric investigation is conducted and the limits of applicability of the method for small Grashof numbers (10e4) are determined. It is More >

    Stability of a Viscous Liquid Film in a Rotating Cylindrical Cavity under Angular Vibrations

    Victor Kozlov1,*, Alsu Zimasova1, Nikolai Kozlov2

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.20, No.12, pp. 2693-2707, 2024, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2024.052398 - 23 December 2024

    Abstract The behavior of a viscous liquid film on the wall of a rapidly rotating cylinder subjected to angular vibrations is experimentally studied. The cavity is filled with an immiscible low-viscosity liquid of lower density. In the absence of vibrations, the high viscosity liquid covers the inner surface of the cylinder with a relatively thin axisymmetric film; the low-viscosity liquid is located in the cavity interior. It is found that with an increase in the amplitude of rotational vibrations, the axisymmetric interphase boundary loses stability. An azimuthally periodic 2D “frozen wave” appears on the film surface… More >

    Abstract This paper presents a numerical study on natural convection and heat transfer using a hybrid nanofluid within a three-dimensional cavity under the influence of a magnetic field. The primary objective of this research is to analyze how various magnetic field conditions affect the thermal performance of the hybrid nanofluid, particularly in terms of heat transfer and fluid motion. Specific objectives include evaluating the effects of the Rayleigh number, nanoparticle volume fraction, and Hartmann number on the dynamic and thermal fields, as well as the overall heat transfer efficiency.

    Analysis of Aeroacousticelastic Response for Cavity-Plate System Undergoing Supersonic Flow

    Yifei Li1, Ruisen Yang1, Dan Xie1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.30, No.4, pp. 1-1, 2024, DOI:10.32604/icces.2024.013359

    Abstract Cavity closed with a thin plate is a common structure in aircrafts, such as landing gear compartments and skin skeletons. The plate undergoing aerodynamic pressure on top is generally vibrating in the amplitude of thickness, which will induce an acoustic pressure in the cavity underneath and it will further affect the panel response. Considering both aerodynamic and acoustic pressure on the panel, there will be an interest to investigate the aero-acoustic-structure coupling mechanism and the aeroacoustoelastic response of the plate. Von Karman plate theory, piston theory and two-dimensional partial differential acoustic equation are employed for… More >

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.141, No.3, pp. 2225-2251, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2024.056676 - 31 October 2024

    Abstract In this paper, the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD)-radiation-natural convection of a hybrid nanofluid within a U-shaped wavy porous cavity is investigated. This problem has relevant applications in optimizing thermal management systems in electronic devices, solar energy collectors, and other industrial applications where efficient heat transfer is very important. The study is based on the application of a numerical approach using the Finite Difference Method (FDM) for the resolution of the governing equations, which incorporates the Rosseland approximation for thermal radiation and the Darcy-Brinkman-Forchheimer model for porous media. It was found that the increase of Hartmann number… More >

    The Behavior of a Gas Bubble in a Square Cavity Filled with a Viscous Liquid Undergoing Vibrations

    Tatyana Lyubimova1,2,*, Yulia Garicheva2, Andrey Ivantsov1

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.20, No.11, pp. 2417-2429, 2024, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2024.052391 - 28 October 2024

    Abstract External vibrations are known to be one of the promising ways to control the behavior of multiphase systems. The computational modeling of the behavior of a gas bubble in a viscous liquid in a horizontal cylinder of square cross-section, which undergoes linearly polarized translational oscillations in weightless conditions, has been carried out. Under vibrations, the bubble moves towards the wall of the vessel with acceleration determined by the amplitudes and frequency of vibrations. Near the wall, at a distance of the order of the thickness of the viscous Stokes boundary layer, the effects of viscosity More >

    Abstract This study aims to formulate a steady-state mathematical model for a three-dimensional permeable enclosure (cavity) to determine the oil extraction rate using three distinct nanoparticles, SiO2, Al2O3, and Fe2O3, in unconventional oil reservoirs. The simulation is conducted for different parameters of volume fractions, porosities, and mass flow rates to determine the optimal oil recovery. The impact of nanoparticles on relative permeability ( and water is also investigated. The simulation process utilizes the finite volume ANSYS Fluent. The study results showed that when the mass flow rate at the inlet is low, oil recovery goes up. In addition, More >

    Vibrational Suspension of Two Cylinders in a Rotating Liquid-Filled Cavity with a Time-Varying Rotation Rate

    Olga Vlasova*

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.20, No.9, pp. 2127-2137, 2024, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2024.051202 - 23 August 2024

    Abstract The dynamics of rotating hydrodynamic systems containing phase inclusions are interesting due to the related widespread occurrence in nature and technology. The influence of external force fields on rotating systems can be used to control the dynamics of inclusions of various types. Controlling inclusions is of current interest for space technologies. In low gravity, even a slight vibration effect can lead to the appearance of a force acting on phase inclusions near a solid boundary. When vibrations are applied to multiphase hydrodynamic systems, the oscillating body intensively interacts with the fluid and introduces changes in… More >

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.20, No.9, pp. 2091-2108, 2024, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2024.050763 - 23 August 2024

    Abstract The behavior of non-Newtonian power-law nanofluids under free convection heat transfer conditions in a cooled square enclosure equipped with a heated fin is investigated numerically. In particular, the impact of nanofluids, composed of water and Al₂O₃, TiO₂, and Cu nanoparticles, on heat transfer enhancement is examined. The aim of this research is also to analyze the influence of different parameters, including the Rayleigh number (Ra = 104 − 106), nanoparticle volume fraction (φ = 0% − 20%), non-Newtonian power-law indexes (n = 0.6 − 1.4), and fin dimensions (Ar = 0.3, 0.5, and 0.7). Streamlines and isotherms are used to… More > Graphic Abstract
