Ocular surface heat flux density in healthy subjects

Effect of Ramadan fasting on intra ocular pressure changes in healthy subjects

Introduction: Annually, millions of Muslims all over the world observe the fasting rules based on its measures; this highlights the importance of studies in this field as a worthwhile model for intermittent fasting. It is obvious that changes in lifestyle over fasting have outstanding effects on physiological parameters. The current study was carried out to investigate the IOP and serum electro...

Earth ’ s surface heat flux

We present a revised estimate of Earth’s surface heat flux that is based upon a heat flow data-set with 38 347 measurements, which is 55% more than used in previous estimates. Our methodology, like others, accounts for hydrothermal circulation in young oceanic crust by utilising a half-space cooling approximation. For the rest of Earth’s surface, we estimate the average heat flow for different ...

Measurement of Boundary Conditions - Surface Heat Flux and Surface Temperature

In order to understand a heat transfer phenomenon, it is sometimes very important to know the change in heat flux and temperature with time or the distribution of the heat flux and temperature on the surface of a heating block. Furthermore, with the development of computational thermal-fluid dynamics, experimental data that are of the CFD level, both spatially and temporally, are needed to vali...

Numerical Study of Spatial Surface Temperature and Nucleation Site Density At High Heat Flux Pool Boiling

A numerical study of nucleation site density was included into the macrolayer model of Maruyama et al.. The results indicate that nucleate boiling curve and critical heat flux point move to the lower superheat region with increasing surface roughness, which is in a good agreement with Bereson ’s experiment. Furthermore, a three dimensional numerical method using finite control volume method and...
