• Development and validation of a compact thermal model for an aircraft compartment 

  Geron, Marco; Butler, Colin; Stafford, Jason; Newport, David (Elsevier, 2013)

  The development of accurate structural/thermal numerical models of complex systems, such as aircraft fuselage barrels, is often limited and determined by the smallest scales that need to be modelled. The development of ...
• Optimising the locations of thermally sensitive equipment in an aircraft crown compartment 

  Butler, Colin; Newport, David; Geron, Marco (Elsevier, 2013)

  A Design of Experiments (DoE) analysis was undertaken to generate a list of configurations for CFD numerical simulation of an aircraft crown compartment. Fitted regression models were built to predict the convective heat ...
• Natural convection experiments on a heated horizontal cylinder in a differentially heated square cavity 

  Butler, Colin; Newport, David; Geron, Marco (Elsevier, 2013)

  Natural convection heat transfer from a heat generating horizontal cylinder enclosed in a square cavity where a temperature difference exists across its vertical walls has been experimentally investigated for the range ...
• Experimental and numerical analysis of thermally dissipating equipment in an aircraft confined compartment 

  Butler, Colin; Newport, David (Elsevier, 2014)

  Aircraft confined compartments are subject to a wide range of boundary conditions during operation which leads to the setting up of complex internal thermal environments. These compartments require strict thermal management ...
• Aircraft crown compartment thermal management: the influence of internal heat dissipating elements 

  Butler, Colin (University of Limerick, 2013)

  The content of this thesis describes the interaction of internal heat dissipating elements with their heated enclosure with the applied case of a crown compartment in a single aisle commercial aircraft. The crown compartment ...
