Nonequilibrium Phenomena in Liquid Crystals

The briefest glance through the literature on nonequilibrium phenomena shows that complex fluids, particularly liquid crystals, are often favored for experimental investigations. This might seem surprising in that complex fluids, as befits their name, are difficult materials: experiments require subtle tricks to prepare reproducible samples; theoretical descriptions lead to notoriously messy eq...

Analysis of Disk AC MHD Generator Performance by Finite Element Method

This paper studies the possibility to generate alternating current (AC) electrical power by using disk MHD generator. Its phenomenon is performed by the finite element method (FEM). The configuration of generator consists of a channel, an insulator and stators. The shape of channel is a flat disk, the liquid metal used as conductor flows inside the channel. As a channel wall, an insulator is us...

شبیه‌سازی عددی جریان دوبعدی در ژنراتور هیدرودینامیک مغناطیسی مقطع ثابت فروصوت و بررسی اثر آن بر عملکرد سیکل ترکیبی سه‌گانه

In this research, Magneto-Hydro-Dynamic subsonic flow in a MHD generator has been simulated and its effect on efficiency and power generation of a triple cycle has been investigated. A 2D constant cross-section Faraday channel with segmented electrodes was used as MHD generator. MHD flow was assumed steady and compressible with ideal five-wave model MHD equations. Navier-Stokes equations were ...
