Abstract: Abstract A way to quantified diffuser-rotor interaction is presented for a micro-diffuser-augmented hydrokinetic turbine (MDAHT) base on the actuator disc theory (Jamieson, 2011). The large eddy simulation/Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes model (DES) for computational fluid dynamics were… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/1.5027671
Abstract: In this paper a thermal concentrating design method was proposed based on the concept of generating function without knowing the needed coordinate transformation beforehand. The thermal harvesting performance was quantitatively characterized by heat concentrating efficiency… read more here.
