Abstract—Heat transfer due to forced convection of copper water based nanofluid has been predicted by Artificial Neural network (ANN). The present nanofluid is formed by mixing copper nanoparticles in water and the volume fractions are considered here are 0% to 15% and the Reynolds number are kept constant at 100. The back propagation algorithm is used to train the network. The present ANN is t...

Measurements of the global pressure field created by shock wave diffraction have been captured optically using a porous pressure-sensitive paint. The pressure field created by a diffracting shock wave shows large increases and decreases in pressure and can be reasonably accurately captured using CFD. The substrate, a thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plate, has been dipped in a luminophore soluti...

The Magneto Caloric Effect is an intrinsic property of a magnetic solid. It is the response of this solid to the application or removal of magnetic fields [1]. When magnetic material is subjected to a magnetic field the magnetic moments are aligned and the magnetic entropy is lower. And the sample heats up when the field is removed the magnetic entropy is increased and the temperature is lowere...

Federal safety regulations require the use of validated consequence models to determine the vapor cloud dispersion exclusion zones for accidental liquefied natural gas (LNG) releases. One tool that is being developed in industry for exclusion zone determination and LNG vapor dispersion modeling is computational fluid dynamics (CFD). This paper uses the ANSYS CFX CFD code to model LNG vapor disp...

The Magneto Caloric Effect is an intrinsic property of a magnetic solid. It is the response of this solid to the application or removal of magnetic fields. When magnetic material (Regenerator) is subjected to a magnetic field the magnetic moments are aligned and the magnetic entropy is lower. And the sample heats up when the field is removed the magnetic entropy is increased and the temperature...

Nonlinear behaviour of RC beams is complex due to involvement of various parameters. Many attempts have been made by the past researchers to predict the behaviour using ANSYS. The accuracy and convergence of the solution depends on factors such as mesh density, constitutive properties of concrete, convergence criteria and tolerance values etc., Past researchers have used various values of the a...
