Purpose: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are performed to investigate the impact of adding a grid to a two-inlet dry powder inhaler (DPI). The purpose of the paper is to show the importance of the correct choice of closure…
The v-Angra experiment aims to estimate the flux of antineutrino particles coming out from the Angra II nuclear reactor. Such flux is proportional to the thermal power released in the fission process and therefore can be used to infer the…
The Booster Neutrino Experiment (MiniBooNE) searches for numu-to-nue oscillations using the O(1 GeV) neutrino beam produced by the Booster synchrotron at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL). The Booster delivers protons with 8…
Rod bundle flows are prevalent in nuclear engineering for both light water reactors (LWR) and advanced reactor concepts. Unlike canonical channel flow, the flow in rod bundles presents some unique characteristics, notably due to the…
Rod bundle flows are commonplace in nuclear engineering, and are present in light water reactors (LWRs) as well as other more advanced concepts. Inhomogeneities in the bundle cross section can lead to complex flow phenomena, including…
The present dissertation describes design, qualification and operation of several electronic instrumentations for High Energy Particle Physics experiments (LHCb) and Neutrino Physics experiments (CUORE and CUPID). Starting from 2019, the…
A dedicated experiment FEDORA (Fusion Experiment for Divertor Optimization Research Applications) has been constructed to visualize flow boiling at scaled fusion divertor conditions. Its main purpose is to obtain the information on local…
High-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is widely used for thermal-fluid design, but repeated CFD solves remain expensive for design optimization, uncertainty analysis, and digital-twin workflows. Recently, our team has…
Accurately predicting aerothermal behavior is paramount for the effective design of hypersonic vehicles, as aerodynamic heating plays a pivotal role in influencing performance metrics and structural integrity. This study introduces a…
ALLEGRO is an experimental high-temperature gas (He)-cooled fast reactor (GFR) under development by the European Consortium V4G4 Centre of Excellence on basis of the concept ALLEGRO presented by CEA in 2009. Its main purpose is to…
Correlations between moments of different flow coefficients are measured in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV recorded with the ALICE detector. These new measurements are based on multiparticle mixed harmonic cumulants…
Accurate prediction of hypersonic flow fields over a compression ramp is critical for aerodynamic design but remains challenging due to the scarcity of experimental measurements such as velocity. This study systematically develops a data…
