Hydraulic analysis of gate valve using computational fluid dynamics (CFD)

In-depth analysis of traffic congestion using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling method

This paper introduces computational fluid dynamics (CFD), a numerical approach widely and successfully used in aerospace engineering, to deal with surface traffic flow related problems. After a brief introduction of the physical and mathematical foundations of CFD, this paper develops CFD implementation methodology for modeling traffic problems such as queue/platoon distribution, shockwave prop...

Periodic Flow Simulation and Heat Transfer Analysis Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (cfd)

Many heat transfer applications, such as steam generators in a boiler or air cooling in the coil of an air conditioner, can be modelled in a bank of tubes containing a flowing fluid at one temperature that is immersed in a second fluid in a cross flow at different temperature. CFD simulations are a useful tool for understanding flow and heat transfer principles as well as for modelling these ty...

Muscle Architecture Analysis Using Computational Fluid Dynamics

The trajectories of skeletal muscle fascicles are critical to their function, and many skeletal muscles across the body have fascicles with highly complex trajectories. Architectural descriptions of muscles account for fascicle trajectories by reporting parameters such as fascicle length, physiological cross-sectional area, and pennation angle. These parameters are typically reported as constan...
