Acoustophoretic Particle Focusing
Posted Fri August 18, 2017 @06:29AM
 Print version Email story Tweet story
Application Acoustophoretic particle focusing is a modern and very attractive method of removing a variety of objects from solutions in a microfluidic channel. The process is applicable to healthcare applications (e.g., malignant cell removal), academic research (e.g., nanoparticle separation), industrial applications (e.g., reclaiming of rare earths) and environmental applications (e.g., sequestration of suspended solids) to name but a few.

 Print version Email story Tweet story
Application Driven by the need for more cleaner, environment friendly vehicles to abide by stricter government regulations, it is imperative for automakers worldwide to make cars more fuel efficient and less polluting. Auto companies are forced to embrace the concept of "downsizing" – building increasingly small, compact, yet powerful engines.

The AeroGust Project - Aeroelastic Gust Modelling
Posted Tue July 18, 2017 @06:26AM
 Print version Email story Tweet story
Application A key element in the design of an aircraft is to make sure it can cope with the stresses arising from the impact of strong winds on the plane’s structure. Calculating the way the aircraft reacts to gusts and turbulences is essential knowledge before a plane can be built.

Currently most of the data concerning gusts is gathered during expensive wind tunnel experiments and rather late in the design process, when design options have already been narrowed down a lot.

3D Inverse Design of Centrifugal Compressor Impellers with Splitter Blades
Posted Fri June 23, 2017 @12:53PM
 Print version Email story Tweet story
Application ADT has published a white paper on improved centrifugal compressor design through CFD analysis.

In the design of centrifugal compressor impellers with splitter blades it is quite common to use the same blade shapes on the full and splitter blades with the splitters placed at the mid-pitch location. However, recent results using conventional design methodology have indicated that by moving the pitch wise location of the leading edge of the splitter it is possible to improve splitter performance.
