A Coupled Natural Circulation Loop (CNCL) consists of two Natural Circulation Loops (NCL) coupled thermally via a common heat exchanger. The transient modelling of such systems that have practical relevance has not been reported in the…
Supercritical carbon dioxide is of interest in a wide range of engineering problems, including carbon capture, utilization, and storage as well as advanced cycles for power generation. Non-ideal variations in physical properties of…
Fluids at supercritical pressures exhibit large variations in density near the pseudo critical line, such that buoyancy plays a crucial role in their fluid dynamics. Here, we experimentally investigate heat transfer and turbulence in…
The present study investigates the effect of inclination on the buoyancy driven systems. A cavity, Natural Circulation Loop (NCL) and Coupled Natural Circulation Loop (CNCL) have been used to represent the possible classes of buoyancy…
The free energy difference between the superconducting and normal state for Calcium under the pressure at 120 GPa has been determined. The numerical calculations have been made in the framework of the imaginary axis Eliashberg approach. On…
Numerical heat and mass transfer analysis of a configuration where a cool liquid hydrocarbon is suddenly introduced to a hotter gas at supercritical pressure shows that a well-defined phase equilibrium can be established before substantial…
Energy efficiency in process industry and passive safety systems in nuclear power plants necessitate the use of buoyancy driven heat exchangers. The current study presents a 1-D numerical model of the buoyancy driven fluid system in a…
Experiments show that isochoric (constant-volume) conditions enhance supercooling stability relative to isobaric (constant-pressure) conditions. Here, combining Helmholtz equilibrium thermodynamics with a first-order perturbation…
Nonequilibrium steady state of isothermal biochemical cycle kinetics has been extensively studied, but much less investigated under non-isothermal conditions. However, once the heat exchange between subsystems is rather slow, the isothermal…
When we lower the temperature of a liquid, at some point we meet a first order phase transition to the crystal. Yet, under certain conditions it is possible to keep the system in its metastable phase and to avoid crystallization. In this…
The objective of this work is to investigate linear modal and algebraic instability in Poiseuille flows with fluids close to their vapour-liquid critical point. Close to this critical point, the ideal gas assumption does not hold and large…
A new experimental study by Snider et al. [Nature 586, 373-377 (2020)] reported behavior in a high-pressure carbon-sulfur-hydrogen system that has been interpreted by the authors as superconductivity at room temperature. The sudden drop of…
Analytical/quasi-analytical solutions are proposed for a steady, compressible, single-phase flow in a rectilinear duct subjected to heating followed by cooling. The flow is driven by the pressure ratio between an upstream tank and a…
A linear stability analysis of a single-phase Coupled Natural Circulation Loop (CNCL) is carried out using a Fourier series based 1-D model. A 3-D CFD study is undertaken to assess the ability of the 1-D model to capture the non-periodic…
Can liquid-like and gas-like states be distinguished beyond the critical point, where the liquid-gas phase transition no longer exists and conventionally only a single supercritical fluid phase is defined? Recent experiments and simulations…
The stability-limit conjecture (SLC) proposes that the liquid spinodal of water returns to positive pressure in the supercooled region, and that the apparent divergence of water's thermodynamic response functions as temperature decreases…
In supercooled liquids, at a temperature between the glass transition temperature Tg and the melting point Tm, thermodynamic properties remain continuous, while dynamic behavior exhibits anomalies. The origin of such thermodynamics-dynamic…
Cold, non-self-gravitating clumps occur in various astrophysical systems, ranging from the interstellar and circumgalactic medium (CGM), to AGN outflows and solar coronal loops. Cold gas has diverse origins such as turbulent mixing or…
There is a long-standing question as to whether and to what extent it is possible to describe nonequilibrium systems in stationary states in terms of global thermodynamic functions. The positive answers have been obtained only for…
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we study supercritical fluids near the gas-liquid critical point under heat flow in two dimensions. We calculate the steady-state temperature and density profiles. The resultant thermal conductivity…
