متن کاملTowards the evolution of vertical-axis wind turbines using supershapes
We have recently presented an initial study of evolutionary algorithms used to design vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) wherein candidate prototypes are evaluated under approximated wind tunnel conditions after being physically instantiated by a 3D printer. That is, unlike other approaches such as computational fluid dynamics simulations, no mathematical formulations are used and no model ass...
متن کاملThe Robin problem for the Laplace equation in a three-dimensional starlike domain
The internal and external Robin problems for the Laplace equation in bounded starlike domains are addressed. We show how to derive the relevant solutions by using a suitable Fourier series-like method. Numerical results are specifically obtained considering threedimensional domains whose boundary is defined by a generalization of the so-called ‘‘superformula’’ introduced by Gielis. By using the...
متن کاملA study of shape optimization on the metallic nanoparticles for thin-film solar cells
The shape of metallic nanoparticles used to enhance the performance of thin-film solar cells is described by Gielis' superformula and optimized by an evolutionary algorithm. As a result, we have found a lens-like nanoparticle capable of improving the short circuit current density to 19.93 mA/cm2. Compared with a two-scale nanospherical configuration recently reported to synthesize the merits of...
متن کاملAn Empirical Correlation for Estimation of the Thermal Conductivity of Saturated Liquid Refrigerants
Thermodynamic data on environmental refrigerants have attracted considerable interest in the optimization and design of heat compressors, exchangers and other refrigeration equipment. In this study, An optimization algorithm was used to obtain the constant parameters of the new empirical model by fitting them to the source databank. The model was used to calculate the constant coefficients of t...
