Influence of solder condition on effective thermal conductivity of two-directional random fibres: Pore-scale simulation

It is indicated that the solder joint of the metal fibrous materials is a critical factor impacting the heat conduction. To reveal the mechanism by which solder joint sizes, solder joint skips, solder flux materials, and filling media affect the thermal conductivity of fibres, pore-scale numerical simulation is employed to study the thermal...

Effect of CO₂-based binary mixtures on the performance of radial-inflow turbines for the supercritical CO₂ cycles

Recently, the supercritical carbon dioxide (SCO₂) power cycle has become a hotspot in the field of energy-efficient utilization. The utilization of additives in the power cycle has been proven to be an effective way to improve the SCO₂ power cycle efficiency. As one of the core components of the system, the influence of...
