The Forschungs-Neutronenquelle Heinz Meier-Leibnitz (FRM II) is actively participating in the worldwide efforts on developing high-density uranium fuels order to reduce enrichment of used high flux research reactors. This work part a parameter study define possible compatible FRM II core designs for conversion. As first step, code-to-code verification performed and experimental data validation....

This study demonstrates the separation and transition flow behaviour around a 3-D wind turbine blade by analysing blending functions, intermittency, onset Reynolds number in SST Gamma Theta model. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory Phase VI rotor was modelled for analysis. simulations were executed using ANSYS-CFX solver. Extensive comparisons performed to demonstrate accuracy of this num...

Small-scale vertical-axis wind power generation technologies such as Savonius turbines are gaining popularity in suburban and urban settings. Although (VAWTs) may not be efficient their horizontal-axis counterparts, they often present better opportunities for integration within building structures. The main issue stems from the suboptimal aerodynamic design of turbine blades, resulting lower ef...
