A laboratory ATP damper with a 250 mm x 250 mm square cross-section was utilized. Three damper designs with flat blades were tested: a single blade, two cross-guided blades, and two blades with one fixed horizontally. Two damper locations were considered: at the end of the ductwork and in the middle, with straight sections both upstream and downstream. A steel sheet reducing the duct's cross-sectional area by 50 % served as a local obstacle, positioned 0.5 m upstream and downstream of the damper. Two independent measurement series were conducted for each setup: one without the local resistance and one with it. Results indicated that local resistance upstream of the damper significantly affects airflow velocity measurement accuracy when the damper's angle of attack is ≤ 30°. This effect was consistent across all damper locations and designs tested. In order to determine the necessary length of straight duct sections without presence of local resistances upstream and downstream the damper, it is necessary in the future to continue research the impact of the presence of local resistance to the accuracy of air flow rate measurements using ATP dampers.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36341,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermofluids","volume":"27 ","pages":"Article 101155"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143548007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address the growing electricity demand in the country, solar energy can be a diversification of Bhutan's renewable energy to address domestic energy security and global environmental concerns. In this paper, efforts have been made to assess the future energy potential from the rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in Thimphu City. For this study, we designed and simulated a 12 kWp grid-tied solar PV systems using PVSYST software. The result showed the annual solar energy generation, final energy yield and performance ratio (PR) of 19,336 kWh, 4.63 kWh/kWp and 84 % respectively. The estimated final energy yield and PR aligned with findings from countries like Saudi Arabia, India, and Pakistan, highlighting the strong solar energy potential in Thimphu. In addition, we conducted simple scenario analysis for energy generation potential when PV systems are installed on 90 %, 75 %, and 50 % of the available building rooftops in Thimphu City. The additional annual solar energy injected into the grid during lean hydropower generation periods was 61 GWh, 51 GWh, and 34 GWh for the three scenarios, respectively. Furthermore, the projected annual cost savings on electricity imports from additional energy generation from grid-tied rooftop solar PV systems was $3.23 million, $2.70 million, and $1.80 million across the three scenarios, using import price figure of 2023. Additionally, installing 12 kWp PV systems on 50 % of building rooftops in Thimphu City alone could result in environmental cost savings of $1.91 million during periods of low hydropower generation.

Metal degradation by BD fuel is a major issue of great concern to the scientific community, and this has resulted in intense research globally. Sustainable use of waste cooking oil (WCO) BD (WCOBD), which has a lower carbon footprint, and its implication on corrosion degradation in the transportation industry in terms of detailed applications of UV–Vis, FTIR, and SEM techniques to elucidate the corrosion behaviour of metallic components in the BD at various durations (0, 28, 42, and 56 days), temperature (25 °C), and atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg) are investigated in this study. The fuel properties of the produced WCOBD were within acceptable standard limits: viscosity of 4.785 mm<sup>2</sup>/s; density of 0.886 g/cm<sup>3</sup>; acid value of 0.120; flash point of 172.4 °C; fire point of 136 °C; cloud point of -4.2 °C; and pour point of -7.8 °C. The major fatty acid group responsible for the metal degradation was C18, with a high degree of unsaturation, having 90.63 % of the total constituent of the BD. UV–Vis analysis after the various immersion periods revealed two peaks at wavelengths of 928.3 and 1033.76 nm, which were formed during the esterification and transesterification reactions of the free fatty acid from the WCO and thus responsible for the metal degradation at the various immersion periods. FTIR spectra exhibited characteristics of double peaks around 2918 and 2842 cm<sup>-1</sup> wavelengths, with other peaks equally observed as being present in the BD.

SEM morphology revealed randomly distributed uneven structures, which were attributed to the formation of protective corrosion products and their physical adsorption on the metal surface. Thus, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the corrosiveness of WCOBD to carbon steel, elucidates techniques to ascertain the degree and form of corrosion on the metal surface during storage and transportation of the BD in vehicular systems, and reveals the potential inherent in the use of un-inhibited WCOBD in real-world automotive applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36341,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermofluids","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 101143"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143465201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to examine the influence of buoyancy, bioconvection on the Falkner-Skan flow of Maxwellian nanofluids over a sloping, melting surface. The analysis assumes a porous and thermally conductive wedge surface subjected to a stable magnetic field and incorporates the effects of Brownian motion, thermophoresis, and gyrotactic microorganisms.
