The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of an electrically conducting fluid is studied in an array of identical parallel ducts stacked in the direction of external magnetic field and are separated by conducting walls of arbitrary thickness. Such arrangement of electromagnetically coupled ducts arises in fusion blanket applications in which a liquid metal is used both as coolant and tritium generation. The finite element method (FEM) with SUPG stabilisation is used for solving the set of coupled MHD equations. Numerical results show that, there is a significant effect of coupling the ducts with conducting walls of varying thickness, on the flow and induced current behaviours especially near the walls and for increasing values of Hartmann number. The results are presented for one, two and three coupled ducts in both coand counter-flow configurations which induce reversal and counter-current flows.

Optoelectronic properties of Tl3InSe4 single crystals
QASRAWI, ATEF FAYEZ HASAN; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Informa UK Limited, 2010-01-01)
The crystal structure, temperature-dependent electrical conductivity, Hall coefficient, current-voltage characteristics, absorption spectra and temperature- and illumination-dependent photoconductivity of Tl3InSe4 single crystals were investigated. Tl3InSe4 crystallises in a body-centred lattice with tetragonal symmetry and belongs to the space group [image omitted]. The crystals are extrinsic p-type semiconductors and exhibit a conductivity conversion from p- to n-type at a critical temperature, Tc, of 283...
Numerical evidence of spontaneous division of dissipative solitons in a planar gas discharge-semiconductor system
Rafatov, İsmail (AIP Publishing, 2019-09-01)
This work deals with the formation of patterns of spatially localized solitary objects in a planar semiconductor gas-discharge system with a high Ohmic electrode. These objects, known as dissipative solitons, are generated in this system in the form of self-organized current filaments, which develop from the homogeneous stationary state by the Turing bifurcation. The numerical model reveals, for the first time, evidence of spontaneous division of the current filaments in this system, similar to that observe...
Phonon Mean Free Path in Few Layer Graphene, Hexagonal Boron Nitride, and Composite Bilayer h-BN/Graphene
Gholivand, Hamed; Donmezer, Nazli (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-09-01)
In this study, ab-initio calculations were performed to obtain the phonon dispersions of seven different structures: single layer graphene, bilayer graphene, graphite, single layer h-BN, bilayer h-BN, bulk h-BN, and finally composite bilayer h-BN/graphene. Using these dispersions specific heat, group velocity, and single mode relaxation times of phonons were obtained to calculate their thermal conductivities, and mean free paths at room temperature. Calculated variables were used to understand the effects o...
Circumferentially cracked bimaterial hollow cylinder under mechanical and transient thermal loading
Kadıoğlu, Fevzi Suat (Informa UK Limited, 2006-12-01)
The analytical solution for the problem of a circumferential inner surface crack in an elastic, infinitely long composite hollow cylinder, made of two concentric perfectly bonded transversely isotropic cylinders is considered. Uniform axial loading and thermal loading in the form of a sudden cooling on the inner boundary are considered. Out of 10 material parameters involved, two bimaterial parameters and three material parameters for each layer upon which the stress intensity factor depends under uniform l...
FEM solution of natural convection flow in square enclosures under magnetic field
Turk, O.; Tezer, Münevver (Emerald, 2013-01-01)
Purpose - The purpose of the paper is to obtain finite element method (FEM) solution of steady, laminar, natural convection flow in inclined enclosures in the presence of an oblique magnetic field. The momentum equations include the magnetic effect, and the induced magnetic field due to the motion of the electrically conducting fluid is neglected. Quadratic triangular elements are used to ensure accurate approximation for second order derivatives of stream function appearing in the vorticity equation.
