    Abstract: The present paper is dedicated to the numerical simulation of the height effect of an inclined roof obstacle. The governing equations of mass and momentum in conjunction with the standard k-ε turbulence model are solved using the computational fluid Dynamics (CFD). The numerical method used a finite volume discretization. Experiments in wind tunnel... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, the effect of the time step size on the numerical results of the liquid sloshing problem was studied for a laterally moving three-dimensional (3D) rectangular tank in a battery cell. The commercial software "Fluent" has been used to predict the local flow characteristics in the tank. To simulate 3D incompressible viscous two phase flo... Show More

    Abstract: Experimental investigations were carried out to study the external overlap ratios effect on the performance of a vertical axis wind rotor of the Savonius type. For thus, an open wind tunnel has been designed and realized in Laboratory of Electro-Mechanic Systems at National School of Engineers of Sfax. This involved also the instrumentation and the...
