Finite-element thermal analysis of flows on moving domains with application to modeling of a hydraulic arresting gear
In this paper, we develop a finite-element framework of simulating the heat transfer of flows on moving domains. A stabilized formulation is utilized to discretize the heat equation posed on an arbitrary Lagra...

A CFD investigation of the effect of non-Newtonian behavior of Cu–water nanofluids on their heat transfer and flow friction characteristics
In the present study, a finite volume method is used to investigate heat transfer and flow friction behavior of non-Newtonian nanofluids. To study a practical application of the mentioned concept, a simple mod...
