Investigation of a radiative cooling system with natural circulation for regulating a heat sink
(North-West University, 2011)The global energy demand has seen a significant increase over the past decade. Our inseparable need for energy has created a number of serious concerns. The most important concern is the environmental impact of our energy ... -
Numerical modeling of the evolution of stellar wind cavities and supernova remnants
(North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)An astrosphere is a low density cavity that results from an outflowing supersonic wind. Of particular interest in this study is the effect of radiative cooling on the computed evolution of astrospheres created by O and ... -
Numerical modelling of Astrospheres
(North-West University (South Africa)North-West University, 2020)A stellar wind creates a cavity in the interstellar medium, which is known as an astrophere. In this work, radiative cooling is included in a standard 2D magneto-hydrodynamic numerical model to simulate the evolution of ... -
The numerical simulation of astrospheric evolution in different interstellar environments
(North-West University (South Africa), 2023)The interaction between the interstellar medium (ISM) and a stellar wind leads to the formation of an astrosphere. In this study, the evolution of astrospheres is simulated with a two-dimensional spherical hydrodynamic ...
