Abstract Designing perfect anomalous reflectors is crucial for achieving many metasurface-based applications, but available design approaches the cases of extremely large bending angles either require unrealistic gain–loss materials or rely on brute-force optimizations lacking physical guidance. Here, we propose a deterministic approach to passive metasurfaces that can reflect impinging light a...

We present the first measurement of negative pion total hadronic cross section on argon in a restricted phase space, which we performed at Liquid Argon In A Testbeam (LArIAT) experiment. All reaction channels, as well elastic interactions with scattering angle greater than 5° are included. The pions have kinetic energies range 100–700 MeV and produced by beam charged particles impinging solid t...

Studies of radiation emissions from turbulent buoyant diffusion flames impinging on structural elements have applications to the development of fire models and estimation of structural integrity under large heat loads. An experimental and numerical study of radiation emissions from turbulent buoyant diffusion flames with and without impingement on a flat plate is reported. The steel plate was s...

A computational uid dynamics and heat transfer analysis is performed to determine the convection and radiation heat transfer from an impinging ame jet to a plane surface. This paper focuses on analyzing the behavior of an impinging ame jet, including buoyancy e ects, turbulence in uence, and convective and radiative heat transfer processes. The combustion is modeled using a 12-species probabili...

-A stochastic model based on the Boltzmann kinetic equation and employing the comprehensive treatment of the dynamics of binary droplet collisions is suggested to describe the droplet size and spatial distribution in dense spray. The model is valid for highly non-equilibrium impinging sprays in which the inertia of the droplets is very high and dynamic coupling with the gas is low. A Monte Carl...

In CI engines, the evaporation rate of fuel on various hot surfaces, including the combustion chamber, has a significant effect on deposit formation and accumulation, the exhaust emissions of PM and NOx, and their efficiency. Therefore, the evaporation of liquid fuel droplets impinging on hot surfaces has become an important subject of interest to engine designers, manufacturers, and researcher...

Hydrodynamic of a turbulent impinging jet on a flat plate has been studied experimentally and numerically. Experiments were conducted for the Reynolds number range of 72000 to 102000 and a fixed jet-to-plate dimensionless distance of H/d=3.5. Based on the experimental setup, a multi-phase numerical model was simulated to predict flow properties of impinging jets using two turbulent models. Mesh...

For industrial applications, we propose a concept of clean and efficient combustion through burning syngas on an impinging burner. We performed experimental measurements of particle image velocimetry, OH radical (OH*) chemiluminescence, flame temperature, and CO emission to examine the fuel mixing and reaction of premixed impinging flames of CH4/syngas/air with H2/CO in varied proportions. The ...

Recent technological developments have lead to significant increase in the generated heat by electronic and optical components. The removal of high heat fluxes can be successfully treated by several methods, e.g. impinging jets. Further improvement is offered by incorporating arrays of jets or causing jets to pulsate. The research reported herein introduces a new method which is based on actuat...

In hybrid laser–MIG keyhole welding, anti-crack elements can be added into the weld pool through a filler metal in anticipation of compensating mass loss, preventing porosity formation and improving compositional and mechanical properties of the welds. Understanding the mixing and diffusion of the filler metal in the molten pool is vital to achieve these desired objectives. In this study, mathe...
