13. INFLUENCE OF THE MODEL SCALE ON HYDRODYNAMIC SCALING IN CFB BOILERS
Abstract The paper presents the results of experimental verification of the simplified set of scaling parameters for which the particle density as well as the cold model length scale may be chosen independently. The tests were carried out on two large scale 1/10 and 1/20 geometrically similar cold models of the Lagisza 966 MWth supercritical CFB boiler. The

14. Experimental validation of a bearing wear model using the directional response of the rotor-bearing system
ABSTRACT The present work gives continuity in the analysis of the wear influence on cylindrical hydrodynamic bearings by presenting an experimental validation of the wear model previously proposed by the authors. This validation is carried on using the frequency response of the rotor-bearings system in directional coordinates. For this purpose, a test rig wa

15. Time-Domain Three Dimensional BE-FE Method for Transient Response of Floating Structures Under Unsteady Loads
Abstract This paper presents a direct time-domain three dimensional (3D) numerical procedure to simulate the transient response of very large floating structures (VLFS) subjected to unsteady external loads as well as moving mass. The proposed procedure employs the Boundary Element and Finite Element methods (FEM-BEM). The floating structure and the surroundi

16. Path Planning for Unmanned Underwater Vehicle in 3D Space with Obstacles Using Spline-Imperialist Competitive Algorithm and Optimal Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Controller
Abstract In this research, generation of a short and smooth path in three-dimensional space with obstacles for guiding an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) without collision is investigated. This is done by utilizing spline technique, in which the spline control points positions are determined by Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) in three-dimensional s

17. Experimental Validation of a Cardiac Simulator for in vitro Evaluation of Prosthetic Heart Valves
Abstract Objective: This work describes the experimental validation of a cardiac simulator for three heart rates (60, 80 and 100 beats per minute), under physiological conditions, as a suitable environment for prosthetic heart valves testing in the mitral or aortic position. Methods: In the experiment, an aortic bileaflet mechanical valve and a mitral biop

18. Development and Evaluation of Calibration Procedure for a Force-Moment Balance Using Design of Experiments
Abstract To measure the aerodynamic and hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on scaled models in water and wind tunnel tests, multi-component strain gauge force and moment balance are usually used. Their performance and accuracy largely depends on the rig and calibration method, including the load table (design matrix) and analysis of experimental data. In

19. Uncertainty analysis of a flexible rotor supported by fluid film bearings
AbstractThis paper is dedicated to the analyses of the effect of uncertain parameters on the dynamic behavior of a flexible rotor containing two rigid discs and supported by two fluid film bearings. A stochastic method has been extensively used to model uncertain parameters, i.e., the so-called Monte Carlo simulation. However, in the present contribution, th

20. CFD modeling of two immiscible fluids mixing in a commercial scale static mixer
A Computational Fluid Dynamics model based on the Eulerian formulation for multiphase flow was developed to model the mixing hydrodynamics of two immiscible fluids in a commercial scale static mixer. The two immiscible liquids were condensate and caustic solutions and were considered as two phases that are interpenetrating each other. The aim of this study w

21. Application of Computational fluid dynamic in aluminum refining through pneumatic injection of powders
Magnesium removal process from molten aluminum using particles of silica sand was studied from a hydrodynamic point of view using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The gas-liquid flow was modeled by a model of the Euler type for both gas and liquid phase transport. Newton´s law of motion was used to describe the subsurface motion of injected solid particl

22. Biosorption of Mn (II), Co (II) and Cr (VI) in a horizontal rotating tubular bioreactor: experiments and evaluation of the integral bioprocess model
In this research, a multi heavy metals removal process with mixed microbial culture was examined in a horizontal rotating tubular bioreactor (HRTB) with different combinations of process parameters. Three metals were selected as examples of cations (manganese and cobalt) and oxy-anion (hexavalent chromium). Hydrodynamic conditions and biomass sorption capaci

23. Hydrodynamic Simulation of Gas - Particle Injection Into Molten Lead
A multiphase- hydrodynamic model was solved with the phase field method and the Cahn-Hilliard equation to simulate the behavior of particle injection with nitrogen as conveying gas through a submerged lance into a lead bath in two dimensions. The residence and mixing time were obtained for different operating parameters like gas flow rate, lance depth, and d

24. The 3D CFD study of gliding swimmer on passive hydrodynamics drag
The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of depth on the hydrodynamic drag coefficient during the passive underwater gliding after the starts and turns. The swimmer hydrodynamics performance was studied by the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The steady-state CFD simulations were performed by the application of k - omega turbu
