A hybrid AI-CFD framework for optimizing heat transfer of a premixed methane-air flame jet on inclined surfaces by Panit Kamma, Kittipos Loksupapaiboon, Juthanee Phromjan, Chakrit Suvanjumrat

“…Key parameters—including the mixture equivalence ratio (ϕ = 0.8–2.0), burner-to-plate distance (H/d = 2–6), Reynolds number (Re = 400–1200), and plate inclination angle (θ = 0°–90°)—were systematically analyzed to evaluate their effects on heat flux distribution and thermal efficiency. Using OpenFOAM, the laminar flame behavior was modeled under diverse conditions, revealing strong agreement with experimental data, with average errors of 6.23 % for flame height and 6.47 % for thermal efficiency. …”

Quantifying spectral information about source separation in multisource odour plumes. by Sina Tootoonian, Aaron C True, Elle Stark, John P Crimaldi, Andreas T Schaefer

“…Our work suggests that the high-frequency acuity of olfactory systems may support high-resolution spatial localization of odour sources. We also provide a model of the distribution of the spectral components of correlations that is accurate over a broad range of frequencies and source separations. …”

Assessing climate risks to Net Zero power system in Great Britain by Jaise Kuriakose, Eduardo A. Martínez Ceseña, Ruth Wood

“…Winter windstorms, which may extend into autumn and spring, pose additional threats to infrastructure at a time of high electricity demand due to heat pumps, potentially leading to power outages. A windstorm impact model based on historical data suggests that while planned network investments may increase capacity, they do not fully prevent outages caused by extreme weather. …”

Design and Improvement of Routing Protocol for Field Observation Instrument Networking Based on LEACH Protocol by Jiuyuan Huo, Xingyue Deng, Hamzah Murad Mohammed Al-Neshmi

“…The residual energy and the rechargeable energy of nodes are added in the process of cluster head (CH) election to reduce the risk of premature death of CHs and shortened network life cycle caused by the selection of nodes with less energy as CH. (2) In the process of cluster forming, the distance from CH to the base station (BS) and the residual energy of CH is considered when setting the cluster radius, to reasonably plan the cluster size and alleviate the “hot spot” problem. The nonuniform distribution of clusters in the network is enhanced to balance the total network energy consumption. (3) The autonomous zone-based multihop routing mechanism is adopted to solve the low reliability of data transmission caused by the poor quality of intercluster communication links and premature death of nodes in long-distance transmission. …”
