Cooling is one of the most important challenges in industries, especially in the automotive industry. The coolant which is used in engine radiators possesses lower thermal conductivity. To enhance the thermal properties, coolant was dispersed in nano-sized particles and the fluid is called as Nanofluid. In this Study, Silica Nanoparticle was dispersed in Paraflu Engine coolant usin...

In high power solid-state-laser systems, one of the major problems is the thermal effect, which occurs in optically pumped laser materials. Heating of the laser medium causes thermal distortions, leading to degradation of beam quality. The main thermal effects in laser rods are thermally induced birefringence and thermal lensing effects. High efficiency, high power and good output beam quality ...

high temperatures are often encountered in almost all of the combustion systems, therefore, thermal radiation heat transfer can influence the droplets heat up rate and consequently their life time. in this paper, the effect of thermal radiation heat transfer is investigated for two cases of directional and spherically symmetric illuminations. the flow and temperature fields insdie and outside o...

Mirage effect is contactless and non destructive method which has been used a lot to determine thermal properties of different  kind of samples , transverse photothermal deflection PTD in  skimming configuration with ccd camera  and special programs is used to determine thermal conductivity of porous silicon ps  film. Ps samples were prepared by electrochemical etching. Thermal conductivity wit...

Topographical effect was considered in the context of bare soil moisture assessment. Soil moisture was evaluated using thermal inertia modelling. As an input data in thermal inertia model, the images in visible and thermal infrared range are required. Two own programs were worked out modi for thermal inertia modelling and topo – for topographical effect removal. Standard GIS software can have a...

phenolic resins have been widely used for selective high technology applications due to their excellent ablative properties, structural integrity and thermal stability that make them appropriate for thermal insulation materials, wood products industry, coatings, moulding compounds and composite materials. polymer layered silicate nanocomposites based on montmorillonite (mmt) have attracted a gr...
