Experimental tests on Li-ceramic breeders for the helium cooled pebble bed (HCPB) blanket design
2003
The Helium Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB) Test Blanket Module (TBM) to be tested in ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) Reactor foresees the utilization of Lithiate ceramics as Tritium breeder in form of pebble beds. Since 1998, ENEA has launched many experimental activities for the evaluation of the breeder thermomechanics and the interaction between the pebble beds and the prismatic steel containment walls. Main objectives of these activities are the measurement of the pebble bed effective thermal conductivity, the wall heat transfer coefficient, the pressure loads and deformations on the lateral walls and their dependency from the mechanical constraints. The paper presents …
Organic carbon, water repellency and soil stability to slaking under different crops and managements: a case study at aggregate and intra-aggregate s…
2014
This research studies the distribution of organic C and intensity of water repellency in soil aggregates with different size and in the interior of aggregates from Mediterranean soils under different crops (apricot, citrus and wheat) and management (con- 5 ventional tilling and no tilling/mulching). For this, undisturbed aggregates were sampled and carefully divided in size fractions (0.25–0.5, 0.5–1, 1–2, 2–5, 5–10 and 10–15 mm) or peeled to obtain separated aggregate layers (exterior, transitional and interior). Organic C content in the fine earth fraction of soils under different crops did not show important variations, although it increased significantly from conventionally tilled to 10…
Laboratori virtual d'ensenyament-aprenentatge: solució numèrica de les equacions de conservació mitjançant volums finits aplicades a superfícies este…
2014
En este treball es presenta el disseny d’un Laboratori virtual d’ensenyament-aprenentatge per a la resolució d’un problema model de Transferència de la Calor en la matèria d’Enginyeria Tèrmica del II curs del Grau d’Enginyer de Tecnologies Industrials de la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos de Madrid. En l’àmbit de la Dinàmica de Fluids Computacional i per mitjà de l’ús del programari de simulació d’Ansys Fluent s’introduïx l’alumne al disseny, modelatge del sistema, resolució, anàlisi i validació del model. El resultat d’esta experiència d’aprenentatge és no sols la mera resolució del problema, inabordable amb mètodes didàctics tradicionals, sinó el desenvolupament de la combinació de destreses,…

Stationary heat flux profile in turbulent helium II in a semi-infinite cylindrical channel
2012
In this paper we determine a set of solutions for a system of partial dif- ferential equations describing stationary heat flux in a semi-infinite cylindrical channel filled with turbulent superfluid helium. This study uses a continuous model for liquid helium II, derived from Extended Thermodynamics, in which the heat flux q is a fundamental variable. The influence of the vortex line den- sity on the radial distribution of the heat flux is especially discussed.
Linear instability of mixed convection of cold water in a porous layer induced by viscous dissipation
2009
Accepted version of an article published in the journal: International Journal of Thermal Sciences, Elsevier Published version available on Science Direct: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ijthermalsci.2008.06.012 An analysis of linear stability of the stationary laminar Darcy flow in a horizontal porous layer is performed. The porous layer is saturated with cold water. The upper plane boundary is assumed to be subject to heat transfer with finite conductance to an environment at the temperature of maximum density of cold water. The lower plane boundary is adiabatic. Convective instabilities are caused by flow viscous dissipation, inducing a basic temperature distribution that decreases in the u…
