Abstract In this study, based on the energy balance for different components of a double-layered vacuum-tube solar collector with U-tube, thermal performance unit is investigated separately using an analytical and quasi-dynamic method. The model used in study determines temperature distribution longitudinal radial directions. research, effects physical parameters heat transfer including size co...

High pulsating blood pressure and severe stenosis make fluid–structure interaction (FSI) an important role in simulating blood flow in stenotic arteries. A three-dimensional nonlinear model with FSI and a numerical method using GFD are introduced to study unsteady viscous flow in stenotic tubes with cyclic wall collapse simulating blood flow in stenotic carotid arteries. The Navier–Stokes equat...

the melt-phase synthesis of dioctyltin (iv) and triphenyltin (iv) benzoates were carried outusing stoichiometric amounts of benzoic acids and the corresponding organotin (iv) compounds.the reagents were ground together in a mortar and fed into a boiling glass tube. a cannula tubewas inserted into the boiling tube to discharge accumulated gaseous products. a syringe ensureda continuous flow of d...

In this research, the convective heat transfers of turbulent water fluid flow in alternating oval tubes is studied using computational fluid dynamics. The purpose of the study is to analyze the heat transfer enhancement and secondary internal flows under different alternate angles. Also, comparing the effect of two schemesfor the domain discretization to be used in the soluti...

Over the past two decades, a variety of micropumps have been explored for various applications in microfluidics such as control of picoand nanoliter flows for drug delivery as well as chemical mixing and analysis. We present the fabrication and preliminary experimental studies of flow performance on the micro impedance pump, a previously unexplored method of pumping fluid on the microscale. The...

The flow synthesis of ortho-substituted carboxylic acids, using carbon monoxide gas, has been studied for a number of substrates. The optimised conditions make use of a simple catalyst system compromising of triphenylphosphine as the ligand and palladium acetate as the pre-catalyst. Carbon monoxide was introduced via a reverse "tube-in-tube" flow reactor at elevated pressures to give yields of ...

The most important reason for the design of curved tubes is increasing the heat transfer between the fluid and the wall which has provided many applications in various industries such as air conditioning, micro-electric, heat exchangers and etc. The aim of this study is numerical investigation of nano fluids flow in spiral tubes with injection of base fluid in different Reynolds numbers. Accord...

The creeping motion through a circular tube of neutrally buoyant Newtonian drops which have an undeformed radius comparable to that of the tube was studied experimentally. Both a Newtonian and a viscoelastic suspending fluid were used in order to determine the influence ofviscoelasticity. The extra pressure drop owing to the presence of the suspended drops, the shape and velocity of the drops, ...

Heat transfer during compression of air in a long, thin tube is studied by CFD. The tube represents one of the many in a honeycomb geometry inserted in a liquid piston air compressor to minimize temperature rise. A dimensionless number for the heat flow rate that includes the changing heat transfer area between the tube wall and air during compression is used. From the CFD results, alinear rela...
