In this paper the propagation of harmonic plane waves in a homogeneous anisotropic magneto-piezothermoelastic diffusive body with fractional order derivative is studied. The governing equations for a homogeneous transversely isotropic body in the context of the theory of thermoelasticity with diffusion given by Sherief et al. [1] are considered as a special case. It is found that three types of...

introduction: frying phenomena occur during the immersion of the product in oil at a temperature of 150–200 ºc, where a simultaneous heat and mass transfer take place. this is the most popular thermal processes of potato cooking. this fast drying is critical to improve the mechanical and structural properties of the final product. these conditions lead to high heat transfer rates, rapid cooking...

We became interested in the subject of heat loss after reading the work of Benzinger (1967), Roe, Goldberg, Blair, and Kinney (1966) and Cuthbertson, Smith, and Tillstone (1968). Benzinger (1967) from Bethesda has established a quantitative relationship between a fall in body temperature and a rise in metabolic rate. He has summarized some of his findings in a graph which is reproduced in Figur...

Heat losses from a trough cavity receiver were investigated in order to eventually optimise the reactor geometry for ammonia-based solar energy storage with troughs, which are prominent in the SEGs plants of California. To this end, experiments were performed with a small-scale receiver containing heating elements. This gave free convection loss coefficient values from 0.3 to 11.8 W/(m.C) from ...

The present study addresses the problem of ignition of a single sodium droplet, which is an important issue for the nuclear facilities safety. The study follows the approach of previous works and extends the results of those papers to the case of radiative heat loss. The contribution of the thermal radiation is taken into account based on the P-1 approximation for thermal radiation transfer. An...

Two nomograms are presented. The first enables the mean surface and body temperatures and the body heat content of a patient of given weight to be determined from measurements of skin temperature at three sites and of the core (rectal) temperature. The second enables the change in heat content of such a patient to be determined from the change in mean body temperature.

Flying animals generate large amounts of heat, which must be dissipated to avoid overheating. In birds, heat dissipation is complicated by feathers, which cover most body surfaces and retard heat loss. To understand how birds manage heat budgets during flight, it is critical to know how heat moves from the skin to the external environment. Hummingbirds are instructive because they fly at speeds...

ABSTRAr It is argued that resonant magnetic fluctuations are the mechanism of anomalous electron heat loss in Tokamaks. The experimental and theoretical support for this assertion are given.

Modified ultrafiltration (MUF) has been described and utilized for the removal of extracellular water in the immediate postcardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) period. This technique has been associated with improved hematological status and hemodynamic stability post cardiopulmonary bypass. Hypothermia during the MUF period has been described as a complication associated with this technique. Decreased...
