In this study, the pulsating flow of a non-Newtonian fluid and heat transfer in pipe with uniform flux at its wall is examined analytically. The assumed to be both hydrodynamically thermally fully developed. perturbation method based on series expansion used analysis. periodic change period-averaged values friction factor Nusselt number as well velocity temperature profiles are obtained varying...

Miniature heat pipes are considered to be an innovative solution able to dissipate high heat with low working fluid fill charge, provide automatic temperature control, and operate with minimum energy consumption and low noise levels. A theoretical analysis on heat pipe thermal performance using Deionized water or n-pentane as the working fluid has been carried out. Analysis on the maximum heat ...

Machining of advanced materials, such as composite, encounters high cutting temperatures and rapid tool wear because of the abrasive nature of the reinforcement phases in the workpiece materials. Ultrahard coatings, such as chemical vapor deposition diamond, have been used for machining such advanced materials. Wear of diamond-coated tools is characterized by catastrophic coating failure, plaus...

A full scale snow melting system with heat pipe technology is built in this work, which avoids the negative effects on concrete structure and environment caused by traditional deicing chemicals. The snow melting, ice-freezing performance and temperature distribution characteristics of heat pipe concrete runway were discussed by the outdoor experiments. The results show that the temperature of t...

in this study, thermal performance of a cylindrical heat pipe is investigated numerically. three different types of water based nanofluids, namely (al2o3+water), (diamond+water) and (multi-wall carbon nano tube (mwcnt) +water) have been used. the influence of using the simple nanofluids and mwcnt nanofluid on the heat pipe characteristics such as liquid velocity, pressure profile, temperature p...

This study numerically investigates turbulent pipe flow driven by a pulsating pressure gradient. While studies of laminar and turbulent pulsatile pipe flow with a single mode of oscillating pressure gradient have been carried out extensively, there is scarce literature on pulsating pressure gradients with multiple temporal Fourier modes. In many real-life engineering applications, for example, ...
