  Abstract:

  Compact heat exchangers (CHE) improve the heat transfer rate with lighter weight and lower volume than other counterparts. An important point in CHEs is their higher pressure drop relative to conventional heat exchangers. This study aims to investigate the heat transfer rate and pressure drop in some proposed models of these heat exchangers with/without vortex... More

  Abstract:

  Reduced order model (ROM)-based controllers have proved to be effective to generate stable bipedal locomotion. However, it is important to understand the limitations and effectiveness of these models without implementing any controllers. This study highlights the versatility of the Linear Inverted Pendulum Model (LIPM) at various walking speeds. Firstly, the Centre of Mass (COM) trajectory... More
