in this work, the characteristics of flow and heat transfer of a fluid containing nano particles of aluminum oxide with the water volume fraction (0.1-0.2-0.3)(v/v) percent of the reports. the overall heat transfer coefficient, heat transfer and the average heat transfer fluid containing nano water - aluminum oxide in a horizontal double pipe counter flow heat exchanger under turbulent flow con...

Experimental investigations have shown that the enhancement in heat transfer coefficients for air flow in a channel roughened with low blockage (e/Dh < 0.1) angled ribs is on the average higher than that roughened with 90◦ ribs of the same geometry. Secondary flows generated by the angled ribs are believed to be responsible for these higher heat transfer coefficients. These secondary flows also...

Effective heat transfer is essential for fusion power core components in order to enable the maximum possible power density and power conversion efficiency needed for economic competitiveness and fuel conservation. Helium coolant is particularly attractive for fusion power plant applications due to its inherent safety features. It can be used in conjunction with a refractory metal such as tungs...

A novel three-dimensional problem formulation is introduced for the simulation of turbulent interfacial multi-fluid flows. The strategy is built around the large eddy simulation (LES) concept, and can be employed for interfacial heat and mass transfer problems in which use can be made of either scalar transfer correlations, or exact mass/energy jump conditions. This multi-physics treatment capa...

H. Doyle Thompson Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Purdue University W. Lafayette, IN 47907 .(317) 494-5624 Heat transfer to the suction gas in a hermetic compressor is known to have adverse effects on compressor performance. This can be explained in an overall sense by thermodynamic cycle analysis. The extent of suction gas heated. inside the compressor and the areas in which this heating occur...

The success of innovative fouling mitigation techniques such as ion implantation depends upon early stage of scale formation on heat transfer surface. This is because the first crystalline nuclei that appear on the surface during the initial period dictate how fouling would develop in latter stages. In this study, the initial period of deposition of calcium sulphate on heat transfer surfaces ha...

Non-Fourier models of heat conduction have been increasingly considered in the last years in the modeling of microscale heat transfer in engineering and biomedical problems. Models that incorporate time lags in the heat flux and/or the temperature gradient result in heat conduction modeling equations in the form of partial differential equations with delay, while some approximations may yield p...
