Modelling of fluid flow and heat transfer in a reciprocating compressor
(IOP Conference Series, 2015-08-17)
Efficiency of reciprocating compressor is strongly dependent on several parameters. The most important are valve behaviour and heat transfer. Valves affect the flow through the suction and discharge line. Heat flow from ...
Modelling fluid flow in a reciprocating compressor
(EDP Sciences, 2015-05-06)
Efficiency of reciprocating compressor is strongly dependent on the valves characteristics, which affects the flow through the suction and discharge line. Understanding the phenomenon inside the compressor is necessary ...
Measurement of an electronic cigarette aerosol size distribution during a puff
(EDP SCIENCES, 2017-05-12)
Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) have become very popular recently because they are marketed as a healthier alternative to tobacco smoking and as a useful tool to smoking cessation. E-cigarettes use a heating element ...
Prediction of localized aerosol deposition in a realistic replica of human airways using experimental data and numerical simulation
(EDP Sciences, 2016-11-15)
The presence of aerosol deposition hot-spots in human airways presumably contributes to development of various diseases. The overall aerosol deposition in human lungs can be predicted with sufficient accuracy nowadays. ...
Performance of Twin-Fluid Atomizers for Atomization of Viscous Solutions
(EDP Sciences, 2014-11-18)
The article compares the performace of two twin-fluid atomizers with different desing and fluid mixing principles for atomiyation of viscous liquids.
Study of airflow in the trachea of idealized model of human tracheobronchial airways during breathing cycle
(EDP Sciences, 2014-11-18)
Article deals with numerical simulations and its verification by experiments in trachea of idealized geometry of tracheobronchial airways by using unsteady RANS approach. Respiratory cycle was simulated by sinusoidal ...
Calibration of Virtual Testing Stand of the Car Cabin using climatic chamber tests
(EDP Sciences, 2015-05-06)
The aim of our research is to calibrate and verify of the software Virtual Testing Stand of the Car
Cabin using climatic chamber tests. The Virtual Testing Stand is standalone executable software developed in
Matlab for ...
Visualization of the air flow behind the automotive benchmark vent
(EDP Sciences, 2015-05-06)
Passenger comfort in cars depends on appropriate function of the cabin HVAC system. A great attention is therefore paid to the effective function of automotive vents and proper formation of the flow behind the ventilation ...
Evaluation of Steadiness and Drop Size Distribution in Sprays Generated by Different Twin-Fluid Atomizers
(EDP Sciences, 2014-11-18)
Dvoumédiové trysky prodělaly značný vývoj v posledních desetiletích. Jsou běžné v mnoha průmyslových aplikacích jako rozprašování paliv, rozprašování tavenin a v potravinářství. Tento článek se soustředí na zhodnocení ...
The influence of spill-line geometry on a spray generated by a pressure-swirl atomizer
(EDP Sciences, 2016-03-28)
An experimental investigation of characteristics of spray generated by a pressure-swirl atomizer (spill-return type) was performed using shadowgraphy and Phase-Doppler Anemometry (PDA). Several different geometries of the ...
