Experimental Investigation of Thermal Balance and Valve Cover Heat Transfer in a Small Internal Combustion Engine
Heat transfer in internal combustion engines is one of the most significant topics. Heat transfer may take place through thermal conduction and thermal convection in spark ignition engines. In this study, valve cover heat transfer and thermal balance of an air-cooled engine are investigated experimentally. The thermal balance analysis is a useful method to determine energy distribution and effi...
متن کاملThermal quadrupole method with internal heat sources
A new method based on the thermal quadrupoles technique for heat transfer modelling in multilayered slabs with heat sources is proposed. Classical thermal quadrupoles use hyperbolic functions and numerical problems occur according to the argument value that depends on thermophysical and geometrical properties as well as characteristics times. We propose a new formulation based on exponential fu...
متن کاملUsing Balance Theory to Understand Social Agents
We propose an alternative way to evaluate ECAs, that is measurement of the agent’s influence on human relations. We applied the balance theory to the relationship between the agent and two people. We conducted an experiment to see the interaction between human relations and agent-human relations. The result of statistical and conversation analyses demonstrate that our evaluation method is usefu...
متن کاملCharacterising Internal Heat Transfer in Thermal Protection Systems
Thermal protection systems (TPS) are employed for spacecraft to survive high temperature conditions during atmospheric re-entry. For space shuttle type re-entries, the use of ceramic tiles shield the payload from exposure to these high heat fluxes. Recent research into the use of low-density materials, such as alumina foams, brings its own scientific challenges, of which understanding internal ...
متن کاملThermal sensation and cell adaptability
Whole person adaptive comfort is discussed with reference to recent findings in molecular scale systems biology. The observations are upscaled to hypotheses relating to less traditional interpretations of thermal processes, which have new implications for indoor climate management and design. Arguments are presented for a revision of current focus, model and paradigm. The issue is seen as a pro...
