RISNumerical Study of Radiation Characteristics in a Dish Solar Collector System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper aims at predicting radiation characteristics of the solar collector system by the Monte Carlo method with respect to the corresponding optical properties. Several probability models ...
Analytical Solution Under Two-Flux Approximation to Radiative Heat Transfer in Absorbing Emitting and Anisotropically Scattering Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Radiative transfer in absorbing, emitting, and highly anisotropically scattering media is widely encountered in high temperature applications such as pulverized coal firing furnaces and high ...
Mean, Variability, and Trend of Southern Ocean Wind Stress: Role of Wind Fluctuations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Southern Ocean (SO) surface westerly wind stress plays a fundamental role in driving the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and the global meridional overturning circulation. Here, the authors investigate the ...
CFD Approach for Column Separation in Water Pipelines
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Liquid column separation (LCS) in pressurized pipelines may occur if a water hammer event drops the local pressure to the liquid’s vapor point. Numerical simulations of LCS have traditionally been based on one-dimensional ...
Design and Optimization of Ellipsoidal Windows for Concentrated Solar Irradiation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work presents a numerical study on transmission performance of ellipsoidal windows used in receivers under concentrated solar irradiation. The Monte Carlo ray tracing method is used to analyze the transmission of ...
