- This paper present an enhanced computational analysis of tangent-ogive cylinder projectile at high angles of attack, incorporating a rotation/curvature(RC) correction to the k-ω SST RANS turbulence model. The empirical constants in Menter’s RC correction are optimized using Bayesian optimization to improve surface pressure predictions, particularly on the leeward side. These constants are trained on Lamont’s experimental data for a projectile with a nose fineness ratio of 3.5 at an angle of attack of 20° and a Reynolds number of 4.0×106 based on diameter. The improved correction is then validated on Tinling’s experimental data, which involves a slightly shorter nose with fineness ratio of 3.0, and shows better agreement with the measured surface pressure distribution. - COLLAPSE

- This study presents a rapid and efficient analysis framework for the design of reentry vehicles operating in hypersonic flow environments, by proposing a multi-objective optimization method based on machine learning surrogate models. While computational fluid dynamics (CFD) provides highly accurate results, its high computational cost makes it impractical for early design phases where a wide range of flow conditions and geometric variations must be explored iteratively. To address this limitation, surrogate models based on Kriging and deep learning were developed using sample data generated from empirical aero-thermodynamic models that represent the aerodynamic and thermal characteristics of reentry vehicles. These surrogate models were then integrated with a genetic algorithm to enable rapid optimization. The results demonstrate that the surrogate models can reliably replace the empirical models and offer significant advantages in terms of computational efficiency, confirming their potential as practical design tools at the engineering level. - COLLAPSE

- Optimizing part-load air-conditioning strategies in climate-controlled warehouses is crucial for reducing energy consumption while maintaining environmental stability. This study evaluates four representative two-unit operation configurations selected from a fixed six-unit layout using a transient CFD model that couples air velocity, temperature, and humidity transport. The model incorporates heat and moisture transfer mechanisms and assesses each configuration based on stabilization time and spatial uniformity indicators. Results show that all two-unit scenarios achieve comparable temperature and humidity control to full-load operation. Case 3 of a point symmetry configuration offers the most uniform vertical distributions due to enhanced upper airflow and mixing. The findings support the practical feasibility of energy-saving two-unit operation strategies and provide guidance for efficient climate management in warehouse environments. - COLLAPSE

- This paper presents a numerical investigation aimed at improving the hydrodynamic performance of a toroidal propeller and reducing tip vortex formation by varying three key design parameters: pitch ratio, camber, and vertical angle. As with conventional open propellers, the pitch ratio and camber significantly influence thrust and torque characteristics, while the vertical angle plays a critical role in both propulsive performance and tip vortex suppression. Through optimization of these parameters, the modified propeller achieves thrust performance comparable to that of the original design, with reduced torque and improved efficiency. Additionally, tip vortex generation is significantly reduced, demonstrating the potential of the toroidal propeller to effectively overcome the inherent tip vortex issues associated with conventional open propellers. - COLLAPSE

- This study evaluates the performance of a mid-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method for rapid unsteady transition analysis and aerodynamic characterization of tiltrotor aircraft. Tiltrotors have recently gained attention as next-generation rotorcraft platforms, leading to active research on predicting their flight characteristics using CFD-based simulations. In this work, the Vortex Particle Method (VPM)-based solver DUST was employed, and its accuracy was validated through comparisons with experimental data and high-fidelity CFD simulations. While the rotor power prediction showed a tendency to be overestimated, the thrust predictions exhibited strong agreement. A 45-second transition flight profile, derived from coupled Reduced-Order Aerodynamic Model (ROAM)–Rotorcraft Comprehensive Analysis System (RCAS) simulations, was applied to perform both quasi-steady and unsteady transition analyses for isolated and installed rotor configurations. The results from DUST showed good consistency between the quasi-steady and fully unsteady simulations. The effectiveness of unsteady maneuver simulation using quasi-steady trim was validated by comparison with reference RCAS results obtained from unsteady trim analyses. Moreover, DUST effectively captured blade–blade tip vortex interactions and complex aerodynamic interference between the rotor and wing. - COLLAPSE

- Batch-type cleaning equipment, which processes multiple wafers simultaneously, often exhibits non-uniform cleaning performance, potentially reducing yield and leading to process instability. This study aims to improve wafer cleaning uniformity by investigating various internal piping configurations in batch-type cleaning equipment. Several pipe geometries—including offset straight tubes and U-shaped conduits—were evaluated to achieve a more uniform distribution of wall shear stress across the wafers. Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) analysis was conducted to assess wall shear stress distributions and evaluate the potential for contaminant removal. The results demonstrate that appropriate adjustments to the internal flow geometry can improve the uniformity of wall shear stress, thereby enhancing cleaning effectiveness. The improved configuration resulted in an average wall shear stress that was approximately 2.5 times higher than that of the baseline geometry, indicating enhanced cleaning performance. Furthermore, the standard deviation of the normalized wall shear stress was reduced by about 47%, demonstrating improved uniformity across the wafers. - COLLAPSE

- CUPID-MSR is an extension of the thermal-hydraulic CFD code CUPID, with modifications for the simulation of Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs). The current CUPID-MSR supports two eutectic molten salt mixtures: uranium-potassium-chloride (U-K-Cl) and uranium-sodium-magnesium-chloride (U-Na-Mg-Cl) compounds. Code verification was performed using the widely recognized De Vahl Davis benchmark problem, which features a buoyancy-driven thermal cavity. The difference from the reference solution ranges from 0.12% to 8.34% for the U-K-Cl compound, and from 1.89% to 5.95% for the U-Na-Mg-Cl compound, with minimal differences between the two results (<2.5%), confirming the accuracy of the implementation. Additionally, CUPID-MSR was also applied to a conceptual fast neutron spectrum MSR design using a horizontal cylinder-type vessel. Nine configurations were investigated, combining reactor diameters of 35, 40, and 45 cm with inlet disks containing 0, 4, or 8 openings. Configurations with 8 openings showed stable flow and the lowest local temperatures (658°C-661°C), while cases without openings exhibited flow instability and the highest local temperatures (672°C-695°C). These results confirm the successful implementation of molten salt properties into CUPID-MSR and present its reliability as a simulation tool for new MSR fluid designs. - COLLAPSE

- This study presents a case study of hypersonic laminar and turbulent boundary layers on the HIFiRE-1 model, proposed as a benchmark in the 2024 High-Fidelity CFD Verification Workshop. Computations were initially performed with the Roe flux-differencing scheme, but non-physical carbuncle phenomena appeared near the cone nose. To improve numerical stability, an entropy fix was applied by modifying the eigenvalues comprising the dissipation term. The improved simulation captured key shock structures and showed good agreement with reference data including surface pressure and heat flux. The turbulent heat flux is up to four times higher than in the laminar one, highlighting the impact of the boundary layer state on the aerothermodynamics of a high-speed vehicle. - COLLAPSE

- A specific design for the coolant passage of an air-cooled Z-type lithium-ion battery pack is introduced to enhance cooling performance. The inclined manifold is utilized for the inlet and outlet coolant passages, and the inclinations are varied to investigate their influence on cooling efficiency and power consumption. When the inlet manifold tapers toward the end, the coolant is distributed more uniformly to the gap between the battery modules, thereby improving the uniformity of the battery temperature. However, power consumption gradually increases because the tapered manifold impedes the inflow of the coolant, resulting in a rise in the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet. As the outlet manifold expands toward the end, the cell-temperature uniformity is steadily improved by reducing the blocking effect of the coolant that flows into the outlet manifold through the gaps between cells. additionally, less power is needed to maintain a constant flow rate with the expanding manifold. - COLLAPSE

- In the present study, the ventilation performance of two different Venlo-typed greenhouse with a roll-up typed roof and one with a rack-and-pinion typed roof is numerically investigated under hot temperature conditions. The thermal-flow fields and ventilation performance of the greenhouse are analyzed and compared by a commercial software. The results show that the roll-up roof greenhouse, despite having a slightly lower ventilation rate, offers the advantage of uniform internal cooling due to stable airflow along its streamlined roof. In contrast, the rack-and-pinion greenhouse provides a higher overall ventilation rate but creates localized high-temperature zone due to flow separation around the vents, leading to significant non-uniformity in the internal temperature distribution. - COLLAPSE
