The present paper provides an experimental study and optimization of multi-hole effervescent atomizers for industrial burners using oil-based fossil, bio- or waste fuels with prospects of emission reduction. Several ...

The main concept of this paper is to utilize advanced numerical modelling techniques with self-regulation algorithm in order to reach optimal casting conditions for real-time casting control. Fully 3-D macro-solidification ...

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 ...

The article compares the performace of two twin-fluid atomizers with different desing and fluid mixing principles for atomiyation of viscous liquids.

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 ...

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. ...

The validation of a proper solution is an indispensable phase of every numerical simulation. Nowadays, many turbulent models are available, whose application leads to slightly different solution of flow behaviour depending ...

Dynamic torsional vibration dampers are for a long time inherent integral components of internal combustion engines. One of the most common types of the dynamic dampers is a silicone damper. It has been, for many years, ...

Constricted tubes appear in many engineering as well as biological systems such as blood vessels or pulmonary airways. The aim of this article is to test the ability of different turbulence models to predict the flow field ...

Medical aerosols are key elements of current chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) therapy. Therapeutic effects are conditioned by the delivery of the right amount of medication to the right place within the airways, ...
