Influence of the Upstream Channel of a Ship Lift on the Hydrodynamic Performance of a Fleet Entry Chamber and Design of Traction Scheme by Haichao Chang, Qiang Zheng, Zuyuan Liu, Yu Yao, Xide Cheng, Baiwei Feng, Chengsheng Zhan

“…This study investigates the hydrodynamic performance of ships entering a ship lift compartment that is under the influence of upstream channel geometry and proposes a mechanical traction scheme to enhance operational safety and efficiency. Utilizing a Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS)-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach with overlapping grid technology, numerical simulations were conducted for both single and grouped ships navigating through varying water depths, speeds, and shore distances. …”

Comparison of Different Polymeric Membranes in Direct Contact Membrane Distillation and Air Gap Membrane Distillation Configurations by Cristiane Raquel Sousa Mesquita, Abdul Orlando Cárdenas Gómez, Carolina Palma Naveira Cotta, Renato Machado Cotta

“…The analyses underscored the necessity of a careful selection of membrane type for each distillation configuration by the specific characteristics of the process and its operational conditions. In addition to experimental findings, the proposed heat and mass transfer-reduced model showed good agreement with experimental data, with deviations within ±15%, effectively capturing the influence of operational parameters. …”
