Flux-limited diffusion theory has been successfully applied to problems in radiative transfer and radiation hydrodynamics, but its relevance to reactor physics has not yet been explored. The current investigation compares the performance of a flux-limited diffusion coefficient against the traditionally defined transport cross section. A one-dimensional BWR benchmark problem is examined at both the assembly and full-core level with varying degrees of heterogeneity.

The capacity of flat Rayleigh fading channels with full channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter and at the receiver at asymptotically low SNR has been recently shown to scale essentially as SNR log(1/SNR). In this paper, we investigate the Rician fading channel capacity with full CSI, and show that the capacity of this channel scales essentially as 1/1+K SNR log(1/SNR), where K is the Rician factor. This characterization includes perfect CSI at both the transmitter and the receiver or noisy CSI at the transmitter and perfect CSI at the receiver. We also show that one-bit CSI at the transmitter is enough to achieve this asymptotic capacity using an On-Off power control scheme. Our framework may be seen as a generalization of previous works as it captures the Rayleigh fading channel as a special case by letting K goes to zero.

This study investigates the impact of iron (III) chloride hexahydrate (FeCl·6HO) incorporation on the structural, thermal, and dielectric properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) [P(VDF-HFP)] nanocomposites, which were prepared using a solution casting method with varying filler concentrations (1-4 wt%). Scanning electron microscopy revealed a systematic increase in porosity-from 0.72% in pure P(VDF-HFP) to 27.5% at 4 wt% FeCl·6HO-along with increased pore size and surface heterogeneity. Atomic force microscopy confirmed enhanced surface roughness correlating with increased filler content. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy demonstrated a significant α-to-β phase transformation, indicating the formation of the polar β-phase with increasing FeCl·6HO content. X-ray diffraction analysis corroborated these findings, revealing a notable increase in crystallinity and β-phase content, with 4 wt% FeCl·6HO achieving the highest β-phase fraction (88.99%). Thermogravimetric analysis confirmed thermal stability up to approximately 500 °C, with a gradual shift in degradation onset attributed to FeCl·6HO interactions. Dielectric measurements at 10 Hz showed a remarkable enhancement in dielectric constant-from 5.62 in pure P(VDF-HFP) to 19.16 at 4 wt% FeCl·6HO-while maintaining a low dielectric loss (< 0.30). These improvements are attributed to the synergistic effects of FeCl·6HO on porosity, phase transformation, crystallinity, thermal stability, and dielectric properties. The superior performance of these nanocomposites makes them promising candidates for flexible electronics, energy storage systems, and advanced sensors.

We present wall-resolved, large-eddy simulation (LES) of flow over a circular cylinder up to ReD = 105, based on the cylinder diameter D, in the subcritical regime. The numerical method is a fully centered-finite-difference scheme on a standard curvilinear O-grid. The stretched-vortex sub-grid scale model is used in the whole domain, including regions of large-scale separated flow. Both secondand fourth-order accurate schemes are used separately, and results, specifically the skin-friction coefficient along the cylinder surface and its variation with ReD, are compared with literature data.

We describe large-eddy simulations of turbulent boundary-layer flow over a flat plate at high Reynolds number in the presence of an unsteady, three-dimensional flow separation/reattachment bubble. The stretched-vortex subgrid-scale model is used in the main flow domain combined with a wall-model that is a two-dimensional extension of that developed by Chung & Pullin (2009). Flow separation and re-attachment of the incoming boundary layer is induced by prescribing wall-normal velocity distribution on the upper boundary of the flow domain that produces an adverse-favorable stream-wise pressure distribution at the wall. The LES predicts the distribution of mean shear stress along the wall including the interior of the separation bubble. Several properties of the separation/reattachment flow are discussed.
