Droplet impact dynamics were investigated for two Weber numbers, i.e., 25 and 50, and surface temperatures ranging from 50 °C to 227 °C to capture transitions from gentle spreading to nucleate boiling and rebound phenomena. This work examines how fuel blending influences inertia, lamella formation, vapour recoil, and film boiling regimes. The results show that higher inertia in blended fuels enhances spreading but also triggers stronger vapour recoil at elevated temperatures, leading to droplet rebound. In contrast, pure hexane transitions to a stable film boiling regime at high surface temperatures, resulting in smoother heat flux decline. New correlations were developed linking Weber number, spreading ratio, and wall heat flux, offering predictive insights for real-world combustion scenarios.

The AVSR has two distinctive structural features: a streamlined bulge surface and a curved back end. The streamlined bulge surface can induce a remarkable impingement effect in the microchannel, and the curved back end promotes the formation of recirculation in both vertical and horizontal directions. These combine to promote significant convective heat transfer, which improves the cooling efficiency of the heat sink. The AVSR is compared with two rectangular ribs: one has the same length and height as the AVSR (LHR), and the other possesses the same volume (VOR). The microchannel with AVSRs (MC-AVSR) presents an increment of 10.56–61.20 % in Nusselt number (<em>Nu</em>) compared to the smooth microchannel (MC-SC).

However, achieving single track multilayer continuous epitaxial growth remains a formidable challenge due to the complex gas-powder-melt pool multiphase interactions. Existing approaches are often hindered by stray grain formation due to the presence of un-melted powder particles and the complexity thermal histories processes. Moreover, the excessively high computational cost of high-fidelity multiphysics simulations restricts the swift optimization of the process window. To overcome these challenges, this research demonstrates the application of in-situ remelting (ISR) technology in the single-crystal superalloys. By developing a dedicated laser-powder interaction model and a thermal-fluid–solid coupling model, we systematically reveal the regulatory mechanisms of in-situ remelting on thermal gradients, flow characteristics, and stress evolution during single-crystal superalloys fabricate. To address the efficiency bottleneck, a surrogate model based on deep neural networks (ResNet) was developed for the L-DED multi-physics simulation. Key findings demonstrate that the proposed strategy: 1) Eliminates un-melted powder particles interference and optimizes thermal gradients, increasing the single-crystal epitaxial growth zone ratio to over 50 %; 2) Suppresses flow field intensity (>70 % reduction) and vortex effects, thereby mitigating stray grain susceptibility induced by dendrite deflection; and 3) Reduces residual stress in deposited layers by over 25 %, effectively inhibiting high-layer cracking risks.

Accordingly, a quadratic formulation modeled in terms of Reynolds-stress anisotropy tensor, as proposed by Speziale et al. (1991), that is active in the off-wall region, is blended with an appropriately specified wall-related counterpart satisfying the exact asymptotic behavior. This blending approach eliminates the necessity to express model coefficients as complex functional dependencies, allowing them instead to be specified as constants. A further modeling refinement of importance involves the use of an appropriately modified turbulent diffusion coefficient in both the Reynolds-stress and scale-supplying equations, thereby removing the need for additional, often ad hoc, source terms typically introduced to address the well-known anomaly of the back-bending of the mean dividing streamline at the reattachment point in separating flows. The computational robustness of the model is significantly enhanced by including a specific form of coupling between the velocity and Reynolds-stress fields in the RANS (Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes) equations of motion. In this formulation, a small, variably designed percentage of the Reynolds stress derived from Boussinesq’s correlation is retained. The model is thoroughly validated in various attached and separated, two-dimensional and three-dimensional flow configurations over a range of Reynolds numbers.
