Study of Ice Adhesion Behavior of SK One Component Polyurethane
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2016-12)
Ice adhesion causes many serious problems such as aircraft accidents, navigational issues on ships, and power loss on wind turbines. These challenges are mainly associated with the acute behavior of ice adhesion. The ice adheres when water seeps into the microscopic pores of the material substrate and freezes, thereby, forming an interlocking mechanism. Therefore, surface roughness has a significant ...
Study of Acoustics Properties of SK One Component Polyurethane and its Application in Arctic Marine Structures
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2016-12-08)
Marine noise reduction tends to be challenging and requires a comprehensive engineering approach. The soundproofing materials for marine noise reduction are usually exposed to high temperatures, potential fluid or oil spills, engine maintenance and a high airflow environment. This work looks into the acoustic proofing properties of a non-toxic material ‘SK One Component Polyurethane’ developed by ...
Thermal Properties of SK One Component Polyurethane using Experiments and Multiphysics Simulations
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2016-12-08)
This study proposes to determine the thermal conductivity of SK One Component Polyurethane (SKOCP) developed by China Institute of Water Resources & Hydropower Research Beijing IWHR-KHL Co. Ltd. SKOCP provides excellent proof of aging and chemical resistance of this material. It is non-toxic, acts as a good anti-seepage, offers anti-abrasion and good anti-freezing performance. In addition, it has ...
Multiphysics study of infrared thermography (IRT) applications
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2019-12)
Infrared thermography is the science of detecting infrared energy emitted from an object, converting it to apparent temperature, and producing images of that radiation, called thermograms. Infrared thermography means "beyond red temperature image". IR thermography being a remote non-contact/non-destructive means of testing is perfectly suitable for tests in extreme environments. Also, it is fast, ...
Solution of Pure Scattering Radiation Transport Equation (RTE) using Finite Difference Method (FDM) (poster)
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2018)
Radiative transfer is the physical phenomenon of energy transfer in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The propagation of radiation through a medium is affected by absorption, emission, and scattering. Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE) have been applied in a many subjects including atmospheric science, astrophysics, nuclear, optics, remote sensing, etc. Analytic solutions for RTE exist for simple ...
Is Thorium a Viable Nuclear Fuel? [poster]
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2018)
Thorium was discovered in 1829 by the Norwegian mineralogist Morten Thrane Esmark and identified by the Swedish chemist Jöns Jacob Berzelius, who named it after Thor, the Norse god of thunder. Thorium is more abundant in nature than Uranium. It is fertile rather than fissile, and can only be used as a fuel in conjunction with a fissile material such as recycled plutonium. Thorium fuels can breed ...
Infrared Thermography (IRT) of Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) Problem and Comparison with Multiphysics Model
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2018)
This work presents a problem undergoing conjugate heat transfer (CHT). Conjugate heat transfer problems are common is domestic heating/cooling, industrial heat exchangers, cooling of electronics (e.g. PC fans). It is to be noted that in conjugate heat transfer problems, the convection part of the heat transfer is dominated. In the given study, a hypothetical case is built where a heat source (a ...
