The determination of the radiative properties of porous media has become a critical issue in various industrial and engineering applications. The aim of this paper is to characterize the radiative heat transfer process through porous media, assumed to be spherical packed beds. A prediction model was developed using the software COMSOL Multiphysics to simulate the interaction of each of the three proposed structures with a plane-heating surface. The distribution of normalized fluxes was assessed allowing the computation of effective radiative properties, namely the transmissivity, reflectivity, and absorptivity for diffusely and specularly reflecting particles. The results show that the arrangement of the particles has a noticeable influence on the media properties. Two layers of the third model were enough to obtain an opaque surface. Correlations have been developed to allow effective reflectivity, transmissivity, and absorptivity coefficients to be easily and accurately defined as a function of emissivity in future models. The suitability of the proposed models was discussed through a comparative study of the results found using numerical simulations with analytical calculations, with a good agreement obtained.

The paper presents results of computer simulation and experimental observations with the main objective of explaining the role of Poisson’s contraction phenomenon in the mechanism of initiating and maintaining squeeze-film action through which light and planar objects can be levitated. Initial and centrally located shallow dimple, created in a thin plate under plain tensile stress is, with the passage of time, transformed into a pattern of elastic deformations over plate’s surface. As a result of that, a light object levitates not only at the centre of the plate where initial, primary dimple is located but over the entire plate.

Based on the slice theory and numerical calculation methods, the time varying meshing stiffness (TVMS) calculation method of the gear pair was constructed for the helical gear pair of a electric continuously variable transmission (ECVT), and the TVMS of the helical gear were calculated under different constant and time-varying torque in this study. The obtained stiffness values were introduced into the established dynamics model of helical gear system, and the influence of changed TVMS, resulting from the variable speed and torque, on the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of gear pair was analyzed using the Runge-Kutta method. The results show that the proposed TVMS calculation method is very effective in computing the TVMS of helical gear pair under time-varying condition. The TVMS and dynamic transmission error (DTE) increase as the torque increase, and vice versa. Meanwhile, the system exhibits a diverse range of periodic, sub-harmonic, and chaotic behaviors at high speed and at low speed when torque is low, whereas not appear at steady high torque under low speed range. This study offers a method for gaining the TVMS of helical gear pair to analyze the dynamic characteristics of gear pair under actual working condition, and the influence of torque that change with the speed ratio on the dynamic performance of a gear system should be considered in the industrial applications.

Actual testing and prototyping costs make up a significant portion of engineering budgets. Virtual demonstration mainly relies on fast and accurate models with robust performance prediction capability as a cost-effective solution. In this manuscript, GT-Suite, a one-dimensional simulation tool is preferred for developing an isothermal battery model. The developed battery model is implemented to a Light Commercial Vehicle model to run Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Cycle. The critical outputs such as state of charge, energy depletion, heat rejection, and generated power are reported. Histograms such as pack current, charge, and discharge current with respect to its nominal capacity (C-rate) are also created to examine the operation capability of battery. In the results, it is seen that the state of charge diminishes from 90% to 82%, as an expected behavior. It is also found that the Parallel Sparse Direct and Multi-Recursive Iterative Linear Solvers methodology reduces the simulation duration by approximately 100 times, in comparison with Singular Value Decomposition Electrical Inversion Scheme. The runtime of the battery pack modeled with the cellular approach combined with the SVD method is more than 90 h. However, the runtime drops to 0.75 h when the PARDISO technique is applied. The method developed within this study can be used for rapid and accurate development of batteries. The verification can be completed in virtual environment and a vital reduction in engineering/prototype/test costs can be guaranteed. The innovation the developed methodology propose is ensuring a fast and reliable performance assessment via taking the holistic effect of integrated models into consideration. Hence it is possible for original equipment manufacturer to completely or gradually eliminate the actual tests and hence prototype costs, test system, and engineer allocations.

To get the reliable dynamic material properties, the optimization of measuring apparatus such as SHTB (Split-Hopkinson Tensile Bar) is essential. SHTB apparatus is a machine that can acquire the material properties of a specimen for given high-speed situation in [Formula: see text] strain rate region. In this study, a new model improved the waveform is proposed by redesigning and optimizing the initial SHTB equipment. Complete reflected pulse was not obtained, and a spurious wave was measured in original model. To obtain reliable material properties, the spurious wave must be removed or avoided. Factors affecting spurious wave were determined as length of striker bar, length of incident bar, and diameter of striker bar & flange, and verified using LS-DYNA, one of the FEM (Finite-Element Method) software. The modified model was redesigned and manufactured based on FEM results. In FEM results, the incident and reflected pulse were completely improved. Also, overlapping with spurious wave was avoided in redesigned experiment results. Redesigned model was confirmed the residual wave after the incident pulse by a pneumatic launcher and various mechanical components. However, the residual wave didn’t affect the reflected pulse and the waveform was improved than the original model.

The square fin was used to improve the heat transfer rate of the concentric tube phase change heat exchanger. The effects of fin spacing, fin arrangement, and fin length on the melting process of phase change material (PCM) were studied. The influence and mechanism of non-uniform fin arrangement were discussed in detail. The liquid phase distribution and temperature distribution of PCM with time were analyzed. The results indicated that the heat exchanger with square fins can significantly improve the heat storage rate and shortened the complete melting time of PCM. Compared with heat exchangers without fins, the melting time of PCM in a 40 mm equidistant fin heat exchanger was shortened by 15.85%, and that in a 70 mm, non-uniformly spaced fin heat exchanger was shortened by 36.79%. Due to the different distances between the square fins and the outer boundary of the concentric tube, the temperature distribution near the square fin showed anisotropy, which enhanced the melting rate of PCM. The sensitivity order was fin arrangement > fin length > fin spacing. The research results can provide a reference for the design of phase change heat exchangers.

To meet the various demands for bus platforms tailored for the emerging new power sources, an adaptive design method is proposed for a bus chassis development using a design structure matrix. The structural feature parameters of the product modules are extracted and the corresponding design structure matrix is established to analyze structural correlations between modules. An adaptive design method process model is constructed following quantification of the design structure matrix. A digital matrix of the module interface is then built to characterize integration and interchangeability of functional modules. Reconfiguration of modules is conducted using the parent-child relationship premise so that the interface matrixes are well integrated. The adaptability of these products is subsequently improved by sharing dominant modules and replacement of local modules. Finally, the implementation of the proposed methodology is illustrated for a current bus chassis.

Although organic Rankine cycles (ORCs) have cornered the small-scale energy harvesting market, the generation capacities produced by sCO 2 cycles far exceed those of ORCs, reaching higher powers and efficiencies. This paper analyzes the results of the field tests performed in 2022 at the Grupo Dragón, Nayarit, Mexico, facilities, in which the objective was to validate the operation of the ORC IDEA-10 system with a capacity of up to 10 kWe. The thermodynamic states reached during the test time lapses in which there was full operational stability and with direct loads are analyzed. The results obtained together with proposals for improvement led to compare the performance of ORCs with sCO 2 systems for low temperature geothermal sources. The efficiencies of simple sCO 2 cycles (5.32%) turned out to be lower than that of ORC at the same temperatures (9.7%), however, the efficiency of the sCO 2 cycle improved notably in a regenerative configuration, given the properties of CO 2 near its critical point, reaching efficiencies above 25% even at low temperatures compared to conventional ORCs with efficiencies below 10%. Finally, the basis for the implementation of sCO 2 in low enthalpy geothermal applications was established, designing an experimental circuit with results obtained in the literature.

Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) nanomaterial has numerous applications in the fields of cosmetics, medicines, coatings, inks, plastics, food, and textiles. Therefore, the problem of heat and mass transport on Bödewadt flow of TiO 2 /water nanofluid over a rotating disk subjected to wall suction is studied. The impact of chemical reaction with partial slip and temperature jump conditions are also considered. For the numerical solution to the problem, the similarity variables are added to transform the three-dimensional flow equations into a favorable set of ordinary differential equations. The impacts of shear stresses, rates of heat and mass transport, and cooling efficiency of nanofluid on the flow are investigated by employing a bvp4c routine in Matlab software. Additionally, the plots for two-dimensional streamlines are presented to visualize the impact of slip velocity and rotation. Through asymptotic analysis, it is found that the presence of similarity solutions for nanofluid over the disk can occur only if the disk is driven to a significant amount of suction. The skin friction factor grows by enhancing the nanoparticle volume fraction [Formula: see text] with a slight reduction in heat and mass transport rates. The fluid temperature is reduced by augmenting [Formula: see text] providing the cooling efficiency of TiO 2 .

Therefore, the problem of heat and mass transport on Bödewadt flow of TiO 2 /water nanofluid over a rotating disk subjected to wall suction is studied. The impact of chemical reaction with partial slip and temperature jump conditions are also considered. For the numerical solution to the problem, the similarity variables are added to transform the three-dimensional flow equations into a favorable set of ordinary differential equations. The impacts of shear stresses, rates of heat and mass transport, and cooling efficiency of nanofluid on the flow are investigated by employing a bvp4c routine in Matlab software. Additionally, the plots for two-dimensional streamlines are presented to visualize the impact of slip velocity and rotation. Through asymptotic analysis, it is found that the presence of similarity solutions for nanofluid over the disk can occur only if the disk is driven to a significant amount of suction. The skin friction factor grows by enhancing the nanoparticle volume fraction [Formula: see text] with a slight reduction in heat and mass transport rates. The fluid temperature is reduced by augmenting [Formula: see text] providing the cooling efficiency of TiO 2 . The fluid concentration falls significantly when a chemical reaction occurs at a faster rate.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134933715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
