In this article, stress analysis and energy estimation during cold-roll forming of symmetrical channel sections have been discussed. Geometry of sheet strip is pre-estimated by a shape function. Then longitudinal, transversal and shear strains have been calculated. Using both the Levy-Mises and the Prandtl Reuss equations, and also considering the Bauschinger effect, stress distributions have b...

To obtain a higher heat transfer in the low Reynolds number flows, wavy channels are often employed in myriad engineering applications. In this study, the geometry of grooves shapes is parameterized by means of four angles. By changing these parameters new geometries are generated and numerical simulations are carried out for internal fully developed flow and heat transfer. Results are compared...

We study the detonation propagation in a channel geometry that suppresses detonation propagation in one direction, allows it in other direction, and does not create flow restrictions in the channel. The geometry consists of a series of divergent sections separated by wedges that form a sawtooth shape. Numerical simulation show that the detonation fails to propagate through this geometry in one ...
