  2. 11. Lubrication mechanism of hydrocarbon-mimicking ionic liquids

    Author : Erik Nyberg; Ichiro Minami; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; P-SiSO; boundary film; silicate; friction; wear; anti-wear; friction modifier; base fluid; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : Lubrication is critical in order to achieve high efficiency and reliability of machine elements such as gears, bearings, and other moving mechanical assemblies (MMA). In space applications, tribological properties of lubricants are quickly growing more important. READ MORE

  4. 12. Macroscopic modeling of fluid dynamics in large-scale circultaing fluidized beds

    Author : David Pallarès; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fuel mixing; fluid dynamics; large-scale circulating fluidized bed; particle tracking;

    Abstract : Satisfactory knowledge of the fluid dynamics governing the gas-solid flow in large-scaleCirculating Fluidized Bed (CFB) units is still lacking, although the CFB technology is widelyused for power (and heat) generation. Due to the complex two-phase flow in large CFB unitsfluid dynamical modeling of practical use is so far limited to a macroscopic approach andavailable models generally focus in describing one of the following key-phenomena: maingas-solid flow pattern, mixing of fuel particles and gas mixing.

  5. 13. Fluid Mechanics of Solid-Liquid Suspensions – An Experimental and Numerical Study

    Author : Torbjörn Virdung; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multiphase; soalescence; confined jet; computational fluid dynamics; stirred vessel; laser doppler velocimetry; particle image velocimetry; solid-liquid suspension; pitched blade; gas-liquid;

    Abstract : Multiphase flows are common in many applications in chemical, mineral, biochemical and several other process industries. Examples of equipment in which multiphase flows are encountered are stirred vessels and multiphase jets, in which suspensions are agitated by an impeller in the former case and distributed through a nozzle in the latter.

  6. 14. Stability analysis of channel flow laden with small particles

    Author : Joy Klinkenberg; Luca Brandt; Cristian Marchioli; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transition; modal analysis; non-modal analysis; Direct Numerical Simulations; multi-phase flow; heavy particles; light particles; particle-laden;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the stability of particle laden flows. Both modal and non-modal linear analyses have been performed on two-way coupled particleladen flows, where particles are considered spherical, solid and either heavy or light. When heavy particles are considered, only Stokes drag is used as interaction term. READ MORE

  7. 15. Assessment of human swallowing using in-vivo and in-vitro approaches

    Author : Muhammad Waqas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; in-vitro manometery; In-vitro simulations; In-vivo analysis; microstructure analysis; extensional rheology; dysphagia; Ultrasound viscometry; Bolus Rheology;

    Abstract : Texture modification is the most vital strategy to manage dysphagia: a condition in which food and beverages are difficult to swallow. Typically thickeners in the form of starch or gums are added to the food to increase the viscosity and thereby reduce the speed of bolus flow. READ MORE
