Spatio-Temporal Behavior of End-Wall Film Cooling of a Turbine Vane with Purge Flow Measured by Fast-Response Pressure-Sensitive Paint

Abstract The demand for high-efficiency, low-emission gas turbines has intensified with growing global energy consumption. In modern turbines, elevated inlet temperatures and uniform combustor-exit profiles expose the first-stage vane endwall to severe thermal loads. Complex vort...

Cardiopulmonary Support During Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Arrhythmias: Long-Term Results from a Single-Center Experience

Extracorporeal membranes oxygenation (ECMO) has been proposed as a useful tool to support ablation of unstable ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). The aim of this study is to assess the clinical outcome of cardiopulmonary support of VAs catheter ablation during a long-term follow-up....
