In this article, some of the main mechanisms for changing the geometry of the wing were investigated and a new mechanism is proposed to improve the aerodynamic performance of the airplane wing. The designs have been simulated and analyzed from both aerodynamic and control points of view. In aerodynamic simulations using CFD methods, two airfoils of NACA series 6 with specifications 65-212 and 65-2012 were modeled. The results indicated that both airfoils used have a better performance compared to others in a certain range of the angle of attack. Subsequently, a new mechanism is proposed to change the wing geometry to optimize its structure. In the proposed mechanism, the structures of airfoils and wings consist of two fixed and moving parts, which can change their geometry with the help of a control circuit. The fixed part has a grooved track, and as the moving part moves in the direction of the grooves, the curvature of the upper and lower parts of the wing changes. The design control circuit includes an angle sensor, a micro controller, and a servomotor. The CFD results are entered into the micro controller as code. At any moment, the micro controller receives the angle data from the angle sensor and by comparing them with the CFD data, and issuing a command to the servomotor, it situates the wing curvature in the optimal state at all times. The built mechanism was tested at an attack angle of 0° and 25°. The results showed that the different parts of the mechanism work with very high precision and put the geometric shape of the wing in an optimal state in a completely intelligent way.

Their specific features essentially include but are not limited to strong fuel adaptability, low emissions, flexible structure, and easy maintenance. Over the past 20 years, various types of MGTs have been developed. Classical and forward-looking technologies have been employed in the design and production of MGTs and their components. Among them, fully radial flow structures, gas lubricated bearings and efficient recuperators are typical approaches to enhance the overall performance and compactness, however, the exploitation of ceramic based materials and intelligent algorithms in component design can also assist in improving the performance. The applications of MGTs have been expanded to many fields, and the research on related components has also made new progress. Due to the time frame, there is no systematic summary of the latest relevant research, so it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of the applications of MGTs and their pertinent components. This paper aims to present a comprehensive review on MGTs, covering the development status, applications, factors of performance and representative explorations of their components. Some investigations regarding the characteristics of commercial MGTs are also conducted. Applications in distributed energy, range extenders, solar generations, and fuel cell systems are distinctly introduced.

Furthermore, nanofluids as working fluids have demonstrated potential for heat transfer enhancement systems, however there are some concerns about irreversibility problems in the systems. Due to this problem and in line with the applications of partial slip on fluid flow modification and irreversibilities, the present study considers laminar mixed convection and entropy generation analysis of aluminum oxide nanofluid inside a lid-driven wavy cavity having an internal conductive solid body in the presence of a partial slip on the upper surface, which to the best of our knowledge, has not been investigated so far. The fundamental equations of the current work with the appropriate boundary conditions are first made dimensionless and then solved numerically using the Galerkin weighted residual FEM. The main parameters of the flow and heat transfer, entropy generation, and Bejan number are presented and explained in details. The outcomes indicate that the partial slip is more effective when friction irreversibilities govern the cavity. In the presence of slip condition, the flow circulation changes the trend in the middle of the cavity around the solid block leading to a decrease in the isentropic lines at the dense sections with almost 30% less than the case of no-slip condition. It is concluded that partial slip shows different trends on the local Nusselt number interface along the wavy wall improving the average Nusselt number where high friction irreversibilities dominate.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51341,"journal":{"name":"Propulsion and Power Research","volume":"11 4","pages":"Pages 544-564"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212540X22000736/pdfft?md5=48ea94ce050acd49ffa4251a1ef394fd&pid=1-s2.0-S2212540X22000736-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43181802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The interaction of turbulence and chemistry is modeled by considering the steady laminar flamelet model (SLFM) and the GRI Mech 3.0 chemical mechanism. The radiative heat transfer calculation is carried out by considering the discrete ordinate (DO) method and the weighted sum grey gas model (WSGGM). The semi-empirical Moss-Brookes model is considered to calculate soot. The impact of gravity on flame and sooting characteristics are evaluated by comparing the normal-gravity flames with the zero-gravity flames. The effect of soot and radiation on flame temperature is also examined. The results show a close agreement with the measurement when both soot and radiation are included in the numerical modeling. The rates of soot formation, surface growth, and oxidation increase with increased operating pressure, regardless of gravity. Zero-gravity flames have a higher soot volume fraction, a wider soot-containing zone, a higher CO mass fraction, and a lower flame temperature than normal-gravity flames while maintaining constant pressure. In normal-gravity flames, the CO mass fraction decreases with pressure, whereas it increases with pressure rise in flames of zero gravity. Flames of zero gravity appear taller and broader compared to the flames of normal-gravity for a fixed pressure. An increase in pressure significantly reduces the flame length and width in normal-gravity flames. However, the pressure elevation has little effect on the shape of a zero-gravity flame.

It is also found that thermal transportation can be enhanced in the presence of nanoparticles and the bioconvection of microorganisms. Present results are useful in the various sectors of engineering and for heat exchangers working in various technological processors. The main findings of the problem are validated and compared with those in the existing literature as a limiting case.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51341,"journal":{"name":"Propulsion and Power Research","volume":"11 4","pages":"Pages 565-574"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212540X2200075X/pdfft?md5=808a1194ae158aede9863c9447b5297e&pid=1-s2.0-S2212540X2200075X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48799702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
