Modeling of turbulent flow
Professor Emilio Baglietto: Modeling of turbulent flow in a reactor fuel ...
Over the last 15 years, computational techniques for modeling reactor behavior on both macro and micro scales have emerged as central tools in this effort, and NSE students will have the opportunity to learn about them from a growing faculty group that includes new ...
Plasma turbulence
Plasma turbulence
This computer simulation shows a cross-section of the plasma inside a tokamak reactor. In this simulation, only the large-scale turbulence effects are modeled — which is adequate for some cases
Nanowires can lift liquids without power
Nanowires can lift liquids without power
New research has demonstrated for the first time that when inserted into a pool of liquid, nanowires naturally draw the liquid upward in a thin film that coats the surface of the wire.
