Abstract An experimental study was conducted to quantify the flow characteristics of the wall jets pertinent to trailing edge cooling of turbine blades. A high-resolution stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (PIV) system was used to conduct detailed flow field measurements to quantitatively visua...

An experimental study was performed to examine effects of compressibility on film cooling effectiveness for coolant flowing from cylindrical holes in a flat plate. The incoming flow Mach number was set at 0.07, 0.30, 0.50 and 0.70. The Pressure Sensitive Paint (PSP) technique, which is based on a mass transfer analogy, was used to map the adiabatic film cooling effectiveness distribution on the...

We study the possibility that a large fraction of the gas at temperatures of ∼ 10 K in cooling flow clusters cools by heat conduction to lower temperatures, rather than by radiative cooling. We argue that this process, when incorporated into the so-called “moderate cooling flow model,” where the effective age of the intracluster medium is much lower than the age of the cluster, reduces substant...

The heat flow control is an important link in directional solidification. Mathematical model for unidirectional solidified ingot with multiple sets of cooling system was established. Temperature field and flow field influenced by traditional water-cooled stool and improved one during solidification of a 45 t was carried out by using ProCAST software. The results of temperature distribute and fl...

The present article focuses on the evaluation of a first-moment closure model applicable to film cooling flow and heat transfer computations. The present first-moment closure model consists of a higher level of turbulent heat flux modeling in which two additional transport equations for temperature variance kθ and its dissipation rate εθ are ...

Motivated by the observations of high Faraday rotation measures measured in cooling flow clusters we propose a model relevant to plasmas with comparable thermal and magnetic pressures. Magnetic field reconnection may play a major role in changing the topology of the magnetic field in the central cooling flow regions. The effect of the topology change is that cool flux loops can reconnect to hot...

temperature restrictions on aqueous effluents dictate that streams with a temperature higher than the permitted level needed to pass through cooling systems to reduce the effluent temperature before discharge. in this study, by considering the grouping design rules based on pinch technology, an optimum design for a distributed effluent cooling system, has been developed. a counter-flow wet cool...

We study the influence of intracluster large scale magnetic fields on the thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) effect. In a macroscopic approach we complete the hydrostatic equilibrium equation with the magnetic field pressure component. Comparing the resulting mass distribution with a standard one, we derive a new electron density profile. For a spherically symmetric cluster model, this new profile...

In a polymer membrane fuel cell more than half of the chemical energy of hydrogen is converted to heat during generation of electricity. This causes an increase in the cell temperature. The Cooling field design has a significant role in cell cooling. The cell's performance and stability are reduced due to inappropriate heat dissipation. In this paper, the cooling flow and heat transfer in cooli...
