Abstract: The flow around rigid cylinders of elliptical cross section placed transverse to Poiseuille flow between parallel plates was simulated to investigate issues related to the tumbling of red blood ...

Abstract: A passive solar heating system was built using heat pipes bonded to the absorbing surface of a solar collector mounted on the south wall of a building. The heat pipes provided one-way heat transfer from the absorber through ...

Abstract: The control volume-based finite-element method was used to investigate the transverse lift on a circular cylinder in a two-dimensional (2D) channel flow. The study was organized in two consecutive steps: (1) Flow past a ...
