Abstract: In this study, ability of an optical-flow algorithm in extracting wake structure of axisymmetric model was investigated. The initial data for optical-flow processing were obtained in low-speed conditions by particle image ...

Abstract: The current study proposed an experimental investigation into the basic characteristics of solar thermal conversion using supercritical CO2–dimethyl ether (DME) natural convection. The main goals are to reduce the operation ...

Abstract: revious evaluations of model simulations of the cloud and water vapor feedbacks in response to El Niño warming have singled out two common biases in models from phase 3 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP3): ...

Abstract: Supercritical fluid based heat transfer loop (NCL) has become a hot topic in energy conversion systems. In such systems, supercritical natural convection stability and heat transfer conditions are crucial for design and ...

Abstract: Tsunami hazard is investigated using the indirect approach with simple seismological and hydrodynamic models. It is assumed that earthquakes of random magnitude may originate anywhere with equal likelihood from a single ...

Abstract: he mechanisms for El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) amplitude change under global warming are investigated through quantitative assessment of air?sea feedback processes in present-day and future climate simulations of ...

Abstract: Thermal efficiency and safety of generation-IV nuclear-power-reactor concept supercritical water-cooled reactor (SCWR) are largely dependent on the coupled supercritical water (SCW) thermophysical properties and heat ...

Abstract: Natural gas is a promising fuel for internal combustion (IC) engines with minimal modification, whereas its low power output and slow flame propagation speed remain a challenge for automobile manufacturers. To find a method ...

Abstract: Team members’ project collaborative process evaluation is the key link to
