Air curtain performance: Introducing the adapted separation efficiency

نویسندگان

چکیده

Air curtains (ACs) are plane turbulent impinging jets that used to separate two environments in terms of heat and mass transfer while still allowing traffic between these environments. The many applications ACs across a wide variety industries makes the evaluation their performance an important but difficult task. aim this paper is introduce indicator, called adapted separation efficiency, suitable for different types systems may involve AC configurations (downward blowing, upward lateral multiple jets, etc.) at scales, transported quantities (heat, water vapor, particles, gases, subjected various transport mechanisms (advection, molecular diffusion) varying environmental conditions (gradients pressure and/or density). It defined using conventional efficiency formula. principle indicator illustrated with generic case study where evaluated basic involving cross-jet density gradients, as well jet momentum fluxes. conducted based on computational fluid dynamics employing validated large eddy simulations.

Numerical Simulation in the Air-Curtain Installed Subway Tunnel for the Indoor Air Quality

The Platform Screen Doors improve Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in the subway station; however, and the air quality is degraded in the subway tunnel. CO2 concentration and indoor particulate matter value are high in the tunnel. The IAQ level in subway tunnel degrades by increasing the train movements. Air-curtain installation reduces dusts, particles and moving toxic smokes and permits traffic by ge...

Separation Logic Adapted for Proofs by Rewriting

We present a formalisation of separation logic which, by avoiding the use of existential quantifiers, allows proofs that only use standard equational rewriting methods as found in off-the-shelf theorem provers. This proof automation is sufficiently strong to free the user from dealing with low-level details in proofs of functional correctness. The work presented here has been implemented in HOL...

Optimization the Efficiency of Gas Turbines for Air Pollution Reduction

Increasing concerns about energy and emissions from fuel consumption in gas turbines has attracted many researchers to protect the environment and reduce pollutants in the world. The main objective of this paper is to investigate the increasing efficiency of three-stroke gas turbine operation based on the technical analysis of the operation of three-axis gas turbine cycles with non-design condi...

Physiological performance of warm-adapted marine ectotherms: Thermal limits of mitochondrial energy transduction efficiency.

Thermal regimes in aquatic systems have profound implications for the physiology of ectotherms. In particular, the effect of elevated temperatures on mitochondrial energy transduction in tropical and subtropical teleosts may have profound consequences on organismal performance and population viability. Upper and lower whole-organism critical temperatures for teleosts suggest that subtropical an...

assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
