The influence of magnetic fields and cavitation on the Richtmyer–Meshkov (RM) instability in liquid mercury has been studied numerically in 2D geometry. Numerical results shed light on the evolution of the Muon Collider target proposed as a pulsed jet of mercury interacting with high intensity...

A population balance model is presented for describing the direct particle-to-particle heat transfer in fluid–solid processing systems. In developing the model, simple kinetic equations are assumed to describe the heat transfer process, but the particle–particle interactions are considered...

The development of SCAM, a three-dimensional numerical model for the prediction of airflow and scalar dispersion in urban canyons, has been described [3]. The first application of SCAM [4] was to study the dispersion of carbon monoxide emanating from car exhausts, but the long term aim has been...

We study the cooling system for submersible electric pumps. This study aims to provide some guidelines to improve the existing cooling system of these electric pumps when they work partially or totally not immersed in the service fluid. Note that inefficient cooling systems cannot prevent the...
