Integration of thermo-electrochemical conversion into forced convection cooling

An Investigation into Forced Convection Heat Transfer through Porous Media

Theoretical and experimental investigations of forced convection heat transfer from a heated flat plate embedded in porous media with a constant heat flux had been carried out in the present work. The experimental investigation included a set of experiments carried out to study the effect of Reynolds number and heat flux on the temperature profile and local Nusselt number. The investigation cov...

Burnout in Forced Convection

Data are presented for burnout in forced coivection nucleate boiling of water at pressures above 500 psia. A dimensionless correlation is devised for. the M.I.T. data which is found to be valid for certain recent data reported by Argonne National Laboratory.

Conversion of silica nanoparticles into Si nanocrystals through electrochemical reduction.

The precise design of Si-based materials at the nanometer scale is a quite complex issue but of utmost importance for their present and potential applications. This paper reports the first attempt to address the electrochemical reduction of SiO₂ at the nanometer scale. SiO₂ nanoparticles are first covered with a uniform carbon layer with controlled thickness at an accuracy of a few nanometers, ...

Thermo-chemical convection in Earth’s inner core

Forced Convection Subcooled Boiling of Binary Mixtures

A mode based on an additive mechanism of heat transfer is proposed for forced convection subcooled boiling of binary mixtures. The contributing modes of heat transfer are: (i) the heat transferred as latent heat by the rising bubbles, (ii) the heat transferred as the heat contained in the superheated thermal layer that is removed from the surface in the wake of the rising bubbles and (iii) the ...
