چکیده

We present methodology, algorithms and software for evaluating flow and view for architectural settlement layouts. For a given settlement layout consisting of a number of buildings arbitrarly positioned on a piece of land, in the present study an island situated on the west coast of Sweden, the methodology allows for evaluation of flow patterns and for evaluating the view experienced from the buildings. The computation of flow is based on a multimesh finite element methods, which allows each building to be embedded in a boundary-fitted mesh which can be moved around freely in a fixed background mesh. The computation of view is based on a novel and objective measure of the view which can be efficiently computed by rasterization.

Multiphase flow and tromp curve simulation of dense medium cyclones using Computational Fluid Dynamics

Dense Medium Cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. It is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in DMCs complex. In this article the flow pattern simulation of DMC is performed with computational fluid dynamics and Fluent...

Design and fabrication of an effective micromixer through passive method

Micromixer is a significant component of microfluidics particularly in lab-on-chip applications so that there has been a growing need for design and fabrication of micromixers with a shorter length and higher efficiency. Despite most of the passive micromixers that suffer from long mixing path and complicated geometry to increase the efficiency, our novel design suggests a highly efficient micr...
