This study explores the mechanism of flow boiling critical heat flux (CHF) for FC-72 in a 2.5 mm 5 mm vertical upflow channel that is heated along its 2.5 mm sidewall downstream of an adiabatic development section. Unlike most prior CHF studies, where the working fluid enters the channel in liquid state, the present study concerns saturated inlet conditions with finite vapor void. Temperature m...

In this paper, we present an integrated Coulter counter that applies a liquid aperture. The Coulter aperture is defined by a non-coaxial sheath of a conductive sample liquid that is surrounded on three sides by a non-conductive sheath liquid. The main advantage of this approach is that it prevents channel blocking, since the channel’s physical dimensions can be much larger than the Coulter aper...

complex heat transfer phenomena (including unsteady state conduction, convection and solidification processes) occur in steel belt conveyer sulfur granulating method. numerical simulation of this technique is performed via a comprehensive and multifaceted one dimensional model. since the air situated between the adjacent sulfur pastilles is essentially stagnant, therefore, the surface temperatu...

the directional response and roll stability characteristics of a partly filled tractor semi-trailer vehicle, with cylindrical tank, are investigated in various maneuvers. the dynamic interaction of liquid cargo with the tractor semi-trailer vehicle is also evaluated by integrating a dynamic slosh model of the partly filled tank with five-degrees-of-freedom of a tractor semi-trailer tank model. ...
