Selecting nozzle arrangement of a chimney tower to reduce the temperature and to increase the entrainment mass flow (2018)
Journal Article

© TJPRC Pvt. Ltd. The aim of this research work was to find the best arrangement of nozzles inside the chimney tower to reduce the temperature and to increase the entrainment mass flow. An existing design of the nozzle arrangement was used as the ref...

A review of current technical development in vertical axis wind turbine technologies and their braking system for low speed, urban and offshore areas application (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Recently, there are growing interests of using Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) to harvest wind energy from low wind speed in urban areas to relatively high wind speed in offshore wind farms. Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) has been known to hav...

The influence of valve-pump weight ratios on the dynamic response of leaking valve-pump parallel control hydraulic systems (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 by the authors. A new leaking valve-pump parallel control (LVPC) oil hydraulic system is proposed to improve the performance of dynamic response of present variable speed pump control (VSPC) system, which is an oil hydraulic control system wit...

Further development of a variable camber morphing mechanism using the direct control airfoil geometry concept (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper reports on the design, manufacture and testing of an improved variable camber morphing wing mechanism following the study by Evans et al. (2016), who employed the so-called Direct Control Airfoil Geometry (DCAG) concept to actuate the trai...

Slat broadband noise prediction of multi-element 30P30N airfoil by a hybrid RANS-LES method (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents a combined CFD and CAA study to assess the slat noise emissions from a multi-element 30P30N airfoil at the 5-degree and 8-degree angle of attack, using a hybrid RANS-LES method. In this simulation, the structured mesh is used and... Read More about Slat broadband noise prediction of multi-element 30P30N airfoil by a hybrid RANS-LES method.

Aerodynamic analysis of a harmonically morphing flap using a hybrid turbulence model and dynamic meshing (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2018, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA. All rights reserved. A numerical study of the NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a harmonically morphing trailing edge flap (TEF) is performed at an angle of attack of 4º and a Reynolds...
