Performance of a 3D-printed Stack in a Standing Wave Thermoacoustic Refrigerator

Thermal modeling and performance analysis of a thermoacoustic refrigerator.

A heat-driven thermoacoustic refrigerator has been designed and tested. A detailed thermal model of the device is presented. Energy balances within the system are discussed using external, heat exchanger, and stack control volumes in order to clarify the relationships of work and heat fluxes below and above onset. Thermal modeling is discussed as a tool for performance analysis as well as for d...

Optimizing the Design of a Thermoacoustic Refrigerator

Load Effect on the Starting Performance of a Standing Wave Thermoacoustic Engine

Introduction A thermoacoustic engine is a device absorbing heat at the hot heat exchanger and releasing heat at the cold heat exchanger while producing acoustic work as an output. Engines are built to carry a load, which in the case of an acoustic device, might include a thermoacoustic refrigerator [4], a (possibly linear) electric generator [2] etc. Coupling between the engine and the load inf...

The Reality of a Small Household Thermoacoustic Refrigerator

This paper discusses the thermoacoustic refrigeration cycle and how it can be applied to real world uses, particularly its use in household refrigeration systems. The commercial viability of this technology is determined by comparing it to a vapour compression system. The paper has two goals: to determine practical applications where thermoacoustic refrigeration may prove a strong rival to curr...

a swot analysis of the english program of a bilingual school in iran

با توجه به جایگاه زبان انگلیسی به عنوان زبانی بین المللی و با در نظر گرفتن این واقعیت که دولت ها و مسئولان آموزش و پرورش در سراسر جهان در حال حاضر احساس نیاز به ایجاد موقعیتی برای کودکان جهت یاد گیری زبان انگلیسی درسنین پایین در مدارس دو زبانه می کنند، تحقیق حاضر با استفاده از مدل swot (قوت ها، ضعف ها، فرصتها و تهدیدها) سعی در ارزیابی مدرسه ای دو زبانه در ایران را دارد. جهت انجام این تحقیق در م...
