CFD Simulation Of Condensation Heat Transfer In Mini/Micro-Channels—Application In Waste Heat Recovery
Download2022-06-01
Ebrahimnia-Bajestan, Ehsan, Gharibnavaz, Mehrdad, Jin, Mingchao, Li, Ri, Brinkerhoff, Joshua, Milani, Abbas
The recovery of waste heat from low-temperature flue gas can be improved by capturing the latent heat part through the condensation of the vapor component. For this purpose, investigating the important parameters in designing efficient heat exchangers is necessary. Therefore, this study aims to...

CFD Study of the aerodynamic performance of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine in the wake of another turbine
Download2022-06-01
Belabes, Belkacem, Paraschivoiu, Marius
An increased interest in Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs) has been seen recently due to their ability to be placed closer together. Although individual vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have lower efficiency than horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs), they may have a significant advantage...

Challenges created by data dissemination and access restrictions when attempting to address community concerns: individual privacy versus public wellbeing.
Download2012
Goodman, K.J., Hatcher, J., Geary, J., Aplin, L., Colquhoun, A.
Background: Population health data are vital for the identification of public health problems and the development of public health strategies. Challenges arise when attempts are made to disseminate or access anonymised data that are deemed to be potentially identifiable. In these situations,...

Challenges in conducting community-driven research created by differing ways of talking and thinking about science: a researcher’s perspective.
Download2013
Geary, J., Goodman, K.J., Colquhoun, A.
Increasingly, health scientists are becoming aware that research collaborations that include community partnerships can be an effective way to broaden the scope and enhance the impact of research aimed at improving public health. Such collaborations extend the reach of academic scientists by...
