longitudinal heat conduction is an important parameter in the cryogenic field, especially in cryogenic heat exchangers. in the present work, the parasitic effect of tube wall longitudinal heat conduction on temperature measurement has been studied in cryogenic laminar hydrogen flow. the effects of various parameters such as wall cold end temperature, wall thermal conductivity, gas volumetric fl...

The effect of the volume flow rate of the heat transfer fluid (air) on the thermal parameters of the solar air collector with a single air pass without using fins under the absorbing plate have been investigated experimentally and theoretically. We use a new design of solar air collector which aims to optimize these parameters in the region cited above. Our solar air collector was realized at t...

the main objective of this study is the modelling and optimization of an industrial hydrocracker unit (hu) by means of adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) model. in this case, some data were collected from an industrial hydrocracker plant. inputs of an anfis include flow rate of fresh feed and recycle hydrogen, temperature of reactors, mole percentage of h2 and h2s, feed flow rate and...

a theoretical solution is presented for the forced convection heat transfer of a viscoelastic fluid obeying the giesekus constitutive equation in a concentric annulus under steady state, laminar, and purely tangential flow. a relative rotational motion exists between the inner and the outer cylinders, which induces the flow. a constant temperature was set in both cylinders, in this study. the f...

numerical and experimental analyses are performed on multilouvered fin banks in low and medium reynolds regimes to investigate the effects of dimples and perforations on flow structure and heat transfer capacity. in different reynolds numbers the flow efficiency has been calculated numerically and experimentally by flow visualization method and the results showed that dimples and perforations c...

Background: In embryological culture dishes, there is a temperature decline when they are removed outside incubators. This study aimed at investigating the effects of this temperature decline within a certain time frame, the type of culture dish with or without the use of laminar air flow and whether it is possible to achieve a sufficient thermal control with the use of a heating stage. Materia...

Orifice flow meter is one of the most common devices in industry which is used for measuring the gas flow. This system includes an orifice plate, temperature and pressure transmitters, and a flow computer. The flow computer is used for collecting information related to temperature, pressure, and their differences under various conditions. Also the flow computer can calculate the flow rate of ga...

This paper presents a comprehensive and exclusive thermodynamic analysis of counter flow heat exchanger under various operating and geometrical conditions. Analysis system (ANSYS) workbench 14.0 has been used for computational analysis and comparison with previous literature has been carried out in view of variable temperature and mass flow rate of hot and cold fluids. An analytical and statist...

The performance of proton-exchange membrane fuel cell cooling system using coolant flow channels enhanced with baffles was numerically investigated. To do this, the maximum temperature of the cooling plate, temperature uniformity and also pressure drop along the flow channels were compared for different cases associated with number of baffles and their dimensions inside the channels. The govern...
