The single-phase flow and thermal performance of a double pipe heat exchanger are examined by experimental methods. The working fluid is water at atmospheric pressure. Temperature measurements at the inlet and outlet of the two streams and also at an intermediate point half way between the inlet and outlet is made, using copper-constantan thermocouple wires. Mass flow rates for each stream are ...

We demonstrated micro counter-current flow in a glass microchip utilizing surface modification patterning method to control surface tension. In order to visualize the micro counter-current flow, fluorescent microparticle dispersion solutions were observed by fluorescence microscopy. When the flow volume ratio of water and organic solution was changed, the switching point of flow direction was o...

modeling the heat and mass transport in micro channel is being used extensively in researches and industrial applications. the aim is optimizing fuel cell designs before building a prototype for engineering application. in this study, numerical, three-dimensional, single phase computational fluid dynamics model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell with both the gas distribution flow channels...

This paper deals with an application of image sequence analysis. In particular, it addresses the problem of determining the number of people who get into and out of a train carriage when it’s crowded and background and/or illumination might change. The proposed system analyses image sequences and processes them using an algorithm based on the use of several morphological tools and optical flow mo-

We present a numerical study of the rotating flow generated by two rotating disks in co-/counter-rotating, inside a fixed cylindrical enclosure similar to the Czochralski configuration (Cz).  The enclosure having an aspect ratio A = H/Rc equal to 2, filled with a low Prandtl number fluid (Pr = 0.011), which is submitted to a vertical temperature gradient. The finite volume method has been used ...
