Pulsating heat pipe is an efficient heat exchange device which is being used for cooling and heating recovery. In the present work, we made a closed-loop pulsating heat pipe with six U-turns and we used water in our system. Moreover the use of water-Fe3O4 nanofluid was studied with two different filling ratios 40% and 50% and 1% mass concentration. At the end we calculated heat resistance and h...

in this work, a thermal energy storage system was designed and equipped with measuring instruments to study heat transfer characteristics and energy storage and release. in this system, a cubic container which is made of plexiglass was filled with dodecanoic acid as a phase change material. in order to transfer heat to the storage container, a constant temperature heat exchanger was designed an...

in this paper, the conjugate gradient method coupled with adjoint problem is used in order to solve the inverse heat conduction problem and estimation of the time- dependent heat flux using the temperature distribution at a point in a three layer system with none homogeneous boundary conditions. also, the effect of noisy data on final solution is studied. for solving this problem the general co...

in this study. optimum allocation of heat transfer inventory for heat exchangers in a refrigeration system with specified power input or cooling capacity. and for a heat pump with specified heating capacity is investigated. the ratio of hot- to cold-end conductance unit cost ratio. g.was considered in the analysis as an additional variable of considerable importance to the designer summarized e...

smart home is composed of several controllers with different plants in control. if each controller works independently, without considering the mutual effect of the others in the control process, the whole system could definitely not converge to an optimum desired status and may not ever reach the demanded condition. the function of different controller system may has conflict in some condition...

the presence of particles in liquid-solid fluidized beds enhances the bed heat transfer, because the movement of the particles leads to an increased turbulence in the system. moreover, the violent movement of the particles has a positive effect on fouling of the heat transfer surface. the aim of this investigation was to perform systematic measurements of bed voidage and heat transfer coefficie...

This research proposes the combination of a dual-loop non-organic Rankine cycle (DNORC) with an internal combustion engine to increase the output power of the recovery system by focusing on the increase in the energy input and system efficiency. In doing so, it investigates the strategy of increasing the mean effective temperature of heat addition in the high-temperature Rankine cycle (HTRC) (t...

In this study, heat transfer and aerosol deposition in the under-floor and baseboard heating systems have been investigated, numerically. The aim of this study is a comparison between these heating systems. This comparison obtains the optimal heating system with low suspended particles in the air. Computational fluid dynamic with Eulerian-Lagrangian method has been used to simulate fluid and pa...
