Penetration of tubulars into horizontal oil wells (2002)
Journal Article
McCourt, I., Truslove, T., & Kubie, J. (2002). Penetration of tubulars into horizontal oil wells. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 216(12), 1237-1245. https://doi.org/10.1243/095440

Penetration of tubulars into horizontal oil wells is investigated in this work. Locking of the tubulars by frictional forces alone is modelled by inserting small diameter rubber rods into horizontal acrylic tubes. Three different regions of the penet...

A numerical study of the behaviour of a gas-liquid interface subjected to periodic vertical motion. (2002)
Journal Article
Valha, J., Lewis, J. S., & Kubie, J. (2002). A numerical study of the behaviour of a gas-liquid interface subjected to periodic vertical motion. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, 40, 697-721. https://doi.org/10.1002/fld.370

A numerical study has been undertaken to examine the behaviour of a gas liquid interface in a vertical cylindrical vessel subjected to a sinusoidal vertical motion. The computational method used is based on the simplified marker-and-cell method and i...

A design guide for performance assessment of solar light-pipes (2002)
Journal Article
Zhang, X., Muneer, T., & Kubie, J. (2002). A design guide for performance assessment of solar light-pipes. Lighting Research and Technology, 34(2), 149-168. https://doi.org/10.1191/1365782802li041oa

Due to an increasing demand for an improvement in environmental conditions for living and a need for energy saving, development of daylight exploitation products has accelerated. The invention of light-pipes which bring natural light indoors where su... Read More about A design guide for performance assessment of solar light-pipes.

Design of a PV driven low flow solar domestic hot water system and modeling of the system collector outlet temperature (2002)
Journal Article
Grassie, T., MacGregor, K., Muneer, T., & Kubie, J. (2002). Design of a PV driven low flow solar domestic hot water system and modeling of the system collector outlet temperature. Energy Conversion and Management, 43(8), 1063-1078. https://doi.org/10.1016

The system under consideration comprises a new freeze tolerant flat plate collector connected directly to a domestic hot water storage tank. Water is circulated by means of a small 12 V DC pump, driven directly by a PV module. It is desired that the...
