Abstract: The spectral transmittance of pure water and salt water solutions of various concentrations, which are important for the thermal calculation of a solar pond, is measured experimentally for ...

Abstract: A new type of the reflectors for evacuated tubular collectors (ETC) which we referred to as a Compound Circular Reflector (CCR) was designed. The reflectors allow reducing the number of tubes ...

Abstract: This paper presents the numerical models underlying the implementation of a novel harmonic balance compressible Navier-Stokes solver with low-speed preconditioning for wind turbine unsteady aerodynamics. ...

Abstract: This paper reports on the improvements of flux enforcement and auxiliary state farfield boundary conditions for Euler and Navier–Stokes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes. The new conditions ...
