graphene oxide was prepared using modified hummers method. stable ethylene-glycol nanofluids containing graphene oxide nanosheets were provided. nd: yag pulsed laser was applied to prepare reduced nanofluids. experimental results revealed that thermal conductivity of the nanofluids is increased with increasing the concentration of graphene oxide (go) in ethylene glycol. the enhancement ratio of...

Using ANSYS finite element (FE) package, a multi-physics simulation model based on finite element method (FEM) is introduced for the multi-layer switched reluctance motor (SRM) in the present paper. The simulation model is created totally in ANSYS parametric design language (APDL) as a parametric model usable for various conventional types of this motor and it is included electromagnetic, therm...

In this study, we analysed the thermal performance, thermal stability and optimum design analyses of a longitudinal, rectangular fin with temperature-dependent, thermal properties and internal heat generation under multi-boiling heat transfer using Haar wavelet collocation method. The effects of the key and controlling parameters on the thermal performance of the fin are investigated. The therm...

In this paper, an efficient method for synthesis of aromatic polyesters containing schiff base units is described by preparation of two polyesters. These polyesters have been prepared by the reaction of terephthaloyl dichloride on Schiff bases derived from p-hydroxybenzyldehyde and 4,4-diamino diphenyl ether, 4,4-diamino diphenyl methane. The Polymers were characterized by IR, CHNS, thermal...

In this study, the relationship among the concepts of entropy generation rate, entransy theory, and generalized thermal resistance to the optimal design of thermal systems is discussed. The equations of entropy and entransy rates are compared and their implications for optimization of conductive heat transfer are analyzed. The theoretical analyses show that based on entropy generation minimizat...

A new nano-sized cobalt(II) coordination polymer, (CoL1).0.5DMF.1.5CH3OH(1); [H2L1 = 5-(4-Carboxy phenyl azo) salicyilic acid] has been synthesized by a sonochemical method. The thermal stability of compound 1 was studied by thermo- gravimetric and differential thermal analyses. Nano-structure of this coordination polymer was characterized by elementa...
