Two flexible flags clamped in a heated channel were numerically modeled to investigate the
dynamics of the flexible flags and their effects on heat transfer enhancement. The penalty …

Thin film aeroelastically fluttering reeds are investigated as a mechanism to enhance air-
side heat transfer in an industry relevant crossflow heat exchanger that can reject over 10 k …

Selection of condenser cooling technology can affect the financial as well as technical
viability of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants. Detailed comparative assessment of …

The influence of an inverted flag's length-to-channel-width ratio (C*= L/W) on its oscillating
