Cfd simulations of thermal comfort in naturally ventilated primary school classrooms

The purpose of thermal comfort is to speck the combinations of indoor space environment and personal factors that will produce thermal environment conditions acceptable to 80% or more of the occupants within a space. Naturally ventilated indoors has a very complex air movement, which depends on numerous variables such as: outdoor interaction, intensity of infiltration, the number of openings, the thermal inertia of walls, occupant behaviors, etc. The most important mechanism for naturally ventilated indoors is the intensity of infiltration and thermal buoyancy mechanism. In this study the objective was to determine indicators of thermal comfort for children, by the CFD model based on experimental measurements with modification on turbulent and radiant heat transfer mathematical model. The case study was selected on school children of 8 and 9 years in "France Presern" primary school in Belgrade. The purpose was to evaluate the relationships between the indoor environment and the subjective responses. Also there was analysis of infiltration and stack effect based on meteorological data on site. The main parameters that were investigated are: operative temperature, radiant temperature, concentration of CO2, and air velocity. The new correction of turbulence and radiative heat transfer models has been validated by comparison with experimental data using additional statistical indicators. It was found that both turbulence model correct and the new radiative model of nontransparent media have a significant influence on CFD data set accuracy

Pljevlja lignite carbon emission charateristics

The anthropogenic emission of GHG especially CO has to be limited and reduced due to their impact on global warming and climate change. Combustion of fossil fuels in the energy sector has a dominant share in total GHG emissions. In order to reduce GHG emission, European Union established a scheme for GHG allowance trading within the community, and the implementation of the European Union emission trading scheme, which is a key to GHG reduction in a cost-effective way. An important part of emission trading scheme is prescribed methodology for monitoring, reporting, and verification of the emission of GHG including characterization of the local fuels combusted by the energy sector. This paper presents lignite characteristics from open-pit mine Borovica-Pljevlja, which has highest coal production in Montenegro (>1.2 Mt per year), including evaluation of its carbon emission factor based on the laboratory analysis of 72 coal samples. Testing of the samples included proximate and ultimate analysis, as well as, net calorific value determination. In accordance with the obtained results, linear correlations between net calorific value and combustible matter content, carbon content and combustible matter content, hydrogen content and combustible matter content, carbon content and net calorific value, were established. Finally, the non-linear analytical correlation between carbon emission factor and net calorific value for Pljevlja lignite was proposed, as a base for the precise calculation of CO emission evaluation

Comparative analyses of built environment exposures relevant to health of greenhouse gas emissions reduction strategies in Serbia

Paper presents comparative analysis of residential indoor air pollutant concentration change over future specified time horizon, implementing building physical and thermal retrofit measures, thus creating pollution mitigation scenarios for existing Belgrade and Nis housing stock followed by greenhouse gas emission reduction scenarios up to 2050. Regarding specified mitigation scenarios, the set of typical housing unit models has been generated which define existing housing stock of Belgrade and Nis. Extensive monitoring of physical and thermal parameters as well as detailed socio-technical survey of selected households was performed and used as an initial modeling input. Relationship between environment pollution and building performances was investigated, with respect to indoor-outdoor sources of pollution, thermal and physical properties of the stock samples and occupant's behavior. As a final output, indoor pollutant concentrations for each of the modelled cases was obtained and validated against the available data. This housing modelling framework has been created in order to develop an assessment of present and future exposure and health impact quantity regarding single/multiple scenario interventions introduced to the housing stock. This paper provides each strategy guidelines for taking measures towards achieving the healthier indoor environments

Observation of associated near-side and away-side long-range correlations in √sNN=5.02 TeV proton-lead collisions with the ATLAS detector

Two-particle correlations in relative azimuthal angle (Δϕ) and pseudorapidity (Δη) are measured in √sNN=5.02  TeV p+Pb collisions using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measurements are performed using approximately 1  μb-1 of data as a function of transverse momentum (pT) and the transverse energy (ΣETPb) summed over 3.1<η<4.9 in the direction of the Pb beam. The correlation function, constructed from charged particles, exhibits a long-range (2<|Δη|<5) “near-side” (Δϕ∼0) correlation that grows rapidly with increasing ΣETPb. A long-range “away-side” (Δϕ∼π) correlation, obtained by subtracting the expected contributions from recoiling dijets and other sources estimated using events with small ΣETPb, is found to match the near-side correlation in magnitude, shape (in Δη and Δϕ) and ΣETPb dependence. The resultant Δϕ correlation is approximately symmetric about π/2, and is consistent with a dominant cos⁡2Δϕ modulation for all ΣETPb ranges and particle pT

Observation of Associated Near-Side and Away-Side Long-Range Correlations in sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV Proton-Lead Collisions with the ATLAS Detector.

Two-particle correlations in relative azimuthal angle (Δϕ) and pseudorapidity (Δη) are measured in sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02  TeV p+Pb collisions using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measurements are performed using approximately 1  μb^{-1} of data as a function of transverse momentum (p_{T}) and the transverse energy (ΣE_{T}^{Pb}) summed over 3.1<η<4.9 in the direction of the Pb beam. The correlation function, constructed from charged particles, exhibits a long-range (2<|Δη|<5) "near-side" (Δϕ∼0) correlation that grows rapidly with increasing ΣE_{T}^{Pb}. A long-range "away-side" (Δϕ∼π) correlation, obtained by subtracting the expected contributions from recoiling dijets and other sources estimated using events with small ΣE_{T}^{Pb}, is found to match the near-side correlation in magnitude, shape (in Δη and Δϕ) and ΣE_{T}^{Pb} dependence. The resultant Δϕ correlation is approximately symmetric about π/2, and is consistent with a dominant cos⁡2Δϕ modulation for all ΣE_{T}^{Pb} ranges and particle p_{T}

Design space exploration of streaming multiprocessor architectures

In this paper, we present a comparison of two design-space exploration approaches. The comparison is in terms of (1) speed of simulation versus accuracy of performance numbers, and (2) connection to trajectories for detailed design. The two approaches are: The trace driven approach and the control data flow graph approach. The first approach leads to the shortest simulation time, but is insufficiently accurate in the performance numbers it provides. It also does not connect well to a trajectory for detailed design. The second method is leading to rather long simulation times, yet it can give fairly accurate performance numbers, and it produces results that can be readily taken as input for further design. The two approaches are somehow extreme in that several in-between methods can be conceived of. We also describe our search for an exploration trajectory which would be somehow “optimal” in terms of speed versus accuracy and closeness to a design trajectory. As expected, this trajectory appears somewhere in-between the two extremes mentioned above

Effects of welding on mechanical and microstructural characteristics of high-strength low-alloy steel joints

© 2018 Institute of Physics Publishing. All rights reserved. In this paper effects of welding on mechanical and microstructural characteristics of high-strength low-alloy steel joints is presented. Testing was done at models prepared with V-groove butt joints that are done by two different welding processes. Considered welding processes were done by MMA or MIG for root pass and MAG for other passes with related consumables. Experimentally determined basic mechanical characteristics were put in correlation to relate ones that were numerically calculated. The experimentally obtained yield strength and tensile strength showed that welding process MMA/MAG provide better mechanical properties then MIG/MAG. It is implicated that selection of welding process at high-strength low-alloy steels is multi criterion analysis. If only proper welding is obtained, applications of high-strength low-alloy steel are adequate. Those applications caused specific problems related to its specific characteristics and properties especially weldability. As welding processes can be analysed from different aspects, selection of specific welding process at high-strength low-alloy steel are more complex
