Abstract: The laminar forced convection of a heated rotating sphere in air has been studied using a threedimensional immersed boundary based direct numerical simulation method. A regular Eulerian grid is used to solve the modified ...

Abstract: The fundamental problem of heat and mass transfer from a slightly deformed sphere at low but finite Peclet numbers in Stokes flow is solved by a combined regular and singular perturbation method. The deformed sphere is ...

Abstract: A threedimensional immersed boundary method (IBM) is applied for the solution of the thermal interactions between spherical particles in a viscous Newtonian fluid. At first, the free convection of an isolated isothermal ...

Abstract: A resolved Eulerian–Lagrangian numerical approach is used to study the heat transfer of 1204 heated spheres fluidized in a slit bed. This approach uses a direct numerical simulation combined with the immersed boundary ...

Abstract: Fixture locators are used to precisely locate and stably support a workpiece so that the desired position and orientation (pose) of the workpiece relative to the cutting tool can be maintained during machining or inspection ...
