As part of the second phase Advanced Virgo upgrade program, instrumented baffles are being constructed to be installed around end mirrors in main arms, continuation what has been implemented for input mode cleaner mirror during I. These will equipped with photosensors, allowing real-time monitoring stray light mirrors. In this paper, we present optical simulations distribution detector cavities...

The behavior of sloshing eigenvalues and eigenfunctions is studied for vertical cylindrical containers that have circular walls constant (possibly infinite) depth. effect breaking the axial symmetry due to presence radial baffles analyzed. It occurs lowest are substantially smaller with going throughout depth; moreover, all simple in this case. On other hand, eigenvalue has multiplicity two abs...

CubeSats have been widely used in remote sensing applications such as global coverage, hotspots revisited, etc. However, due to the strict size limitation, high-accuracy measuring instruments star tracker are too large be applied CubeSat, thus causing insufficient accuracy satellite attitude and image positioning. In order reduce volume of without compromising performance, relationship between ...

A numerical investigation of a phase change material (PCM) energy storage tank working with carbon nanotube (CNT)–water nanofluid is performed. The study was conducted under actual climatic conditions the Ha’il region (Saudi Arabia). Two configurations related to absence or presence conductive baffles are studied. filled by encapsulated paraffin wax as PCM, and CNT–water flows through capsules....

Abstract The tokamak à configuration variable (TCV) continues to leverage its unique shaping capabilities, flexible heating systems and modern control system address critical issues in preparation for ITER a fusion power plant. For the 2019–20 campaign configurational flexibility has been enhanced with installation of removable divertor gas baffles, diagnostic capabilities an extensive set upgr...

A numerical study is conducted to compare the current most popular flow field configurations, porous, biporous, porous with baffles, Toyota 3D fine-mesh, and traditional rectangular field. Operation at high densities considered elucidate effect of designs on overall heat transfer liquid water removal. comprehensive 3D, multiphase, nonisothermal computational fluid dynamics model developed based...
