Turbulent Drag Reduction Using Anisotropic Permeable Substrates.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018)The behaviour of turbulent flow over anisotropic permeable substrates is studied using linear stability analysis and direct numerical simulations (DNS). The flow within the permeable substrate is modelled using the Brinkman ... -
Spectral Analysis of the Slip-Length Model for Turbulence over Textured Superhydrophobic Surfaces.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018)We assess the applicability of slip-length models to represent textured superhydrophobic surfaces. From the results of direct numerical simulations, and by considering the slip length from a spectral perspective, we ... -
Quantifying the role and value of chemical looping combustion in future electricity systems via a retrosynthetic approach
(Elsevier BV, 2018)Carbon capture and sequestration of CO2 from the combustion of fossil fuels in thermal power plants is expected to be important in the mitigation of climate change. Deployment however falls far short of what is required. ... -
Scalar flux modeling in turbulent flames using iterative deconvolution
(American Physical Society (APS), 2018)In the context of Large Eddy Simulations, deconvolution is an attractive alternative for modelling the un-closed terms appearing in the filtered governing equations. Such methods have been used in a number of studies for ...
