COVID-19 brought several management problems, and among these surely the topic of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) turned out to be crucial. Indeed, in the light of mandatory measurements adopted by governments both for private individuals and companies, their demand has rapidly increased, thus generating shortages, increased waste and unbalanced prices. In response to that, many industrial fields offered their tools and know-how for trying to partly face this issue, and in this paper part of a solution of this kind is presented. Specifically, it is meant the redesign of a food oven produced by an Italian company operating in the food sector (Nilma S.p.A.) for thermal sanitization against the virus in question. In this paper, the simulation of the temperature distribution inside the chamber is simulated, with subsequent experimental validation at 95°C.

s In this study, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was used to simulate the flow and temperature distribution in zinc pot of hot-dip galvanizing process. The flow and temperature distribution in a base-case zinc pot was compared to that in other two optimized zinc pots, one of which had a dam between ingot and snout and another one had a reduced heating power. The simulation shows that the dam impedes the flow of low temperature liquid zinc around zinc ingot to strip and increases the fluctuation of zinc level. By reducing the heating power, however, the fluctuation of zinc level could be suppressed.

With the three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics method, the airflow effects over the huge telescope assemble is investigated in this article. The distributing of velocity field and natural convection are studied by modeling and simulating the turbulent airflow of the huge telescope. Numerical simulations show the best observation direction is the 90o angle between the main optics axis and the horizontal line in which the air velocity distribution is the least. And the air temperature distribution and uniformity around the telescope are also provided by simulation.

The multi-cell concept is applied to simulate fire in a big com partment with the zone model CFAST. The predicted physical properties of the smoke layer are used to justify the results, including the smoke layer tempera ture, smoke layer thickness and flows between each cell. Microscopic pictures of the flow pattern and smoke temperature distribution similar to the results pre dicted by the Computational Fluid Dynamics technique can be obtained. This idea is recommended to study fires in big enclosures.
