  • The Use of Fractal-Like Bifurcating Flow Channels for Biological Targeted Cooling

    Creator:
    Stottlemyre, Wyatt
    Abstract:
    In the wake of climate change, the risk of heat related illnesses has continuously increased over the past several decades. While thermal management solutions have continued to improve, there is a need for efficient cooling systems that conform with the human body. This study combines the solutions from fractal-like flow...

  • Melting Stage Analysis for Indirect Freeze Desalination

    Creator:
    Pratt, Mason G.
    Abstract:
    To investigate the melting stage of indirect freeze desalination three numerical models were developed. A zeroth, first, and second order analyses modeled the melting of ice around the outside of a pipe as a function of time. The zeroth order analysis assumes the system to be steady state. The first...

  • Reliability Analysis of a Freeze Desalination System

    Creator:
    Boschetti Tofano, Francisco A.
    Abstract:
    The unsustainable use of fresh water sources and unavailability of fresh water in certain parts of the world have created a demand for water desalination systems. Desalination methods are effective at producing consumable water, but often require large scale setups, high energy consumption, and careful maintenance. A team of students...
