We demonstrate similarity rules for inductively coupled plasmas with thermohydrodynamic coupling effects using two-dimensional fluid simulations and theoretical analyses of the gas flow heat transfer equations. The results confirm validity conventional laws, e.g., relation electron density, which can be violated by nonlinear heating from exothermic endothermic reactions. obviously perturb invar...

This study presents a performance evaluation of two parallel programming paradigms, OpenMP and messagepassing interface (MPI), for thermohydrodynamic lubrication analysis. In this study the performance of parallel computing in MPI cluster is equivalent to a similarly configured single-system image cluster. For a reasonable parallel efficiency (75%) the experimentally determined minimum executio...

Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT Supernova explosions, and winds and energetic photon fluxes from young star clusters drive outflows and supersonic turbulence in the interstellar medium in galaxy disks, and provide broad spectrum heating which generates a wide range of thermal phases in the gas. Star formation, the source of the energy inputs, is itself regulated by heating and phase exchange...

The lifespan of journal bearings is directly related to the operating conditions they have face and reducing their maintenance intervals allows one a clear idea about performance when issues occur. presence scratches on its surfaces degrades bearing. These effects already been assessed in experiments; however, numerical studies this subject are still scarce. This work develops thermohydrodynami...

The use of tilting pad journal bearings (TPJBs) has increased in the recent past due to their stabilizing effects on rotor bearing system. Most studies about steady state and dynamic behaviors TPJBs are usually evaluated by means thermohydrodynamic models assuming nominal dimensions for bearing. However, machining errors could lead actual geometry different from ones. In particular, TPJB asymme...
