Computational study was carried out to determine average heat transfer coefficients and friction factors for turbulent flow through rectangular ducts with ribs. A commercial finite volume package ANSYS FLUENT 12.1 is used to analyze and visualize the nature of the flow across the ribbed duct The fluid in the duct was air, and the average heat transfer coefficients were determined by measuring t...

This paper investigates the flow characteristics along a ribbed square duct using time-resolved particle image velocimetry. The Reynolds number, defined by main velocity (1.82 m/s) and hydraulic diameter (80 mm), is 10 000. rotation numbers are 0, 0.13, 0.26, 0.39, 0.52. blockage aspect ratios of 0.1 1, respectively. As number increases, recirculation zone on suction side becomes larger, reatta...

Controversial views have been expressed about whether tarantula feet can secrete fine silk threads that could prevent them from falling off smooth vertical surfaces. Two studies have claimed that 'ribbed hairs' on the tarsi of tarantulas produce silk. We examined these ribbed hairs in several tarantula species using light and scanning electron microscopy, and compared them with the silk-produci...

Multi-ribbed frame grid (hereinafter referred to as MRFG) is an important part of Multi-ribbed composite wall and consisted of outer frame and ribbed grid. The reinforcement of outer frame is the main influence factor on the performance of MRFG. In this study, an MRFG specimen under laterally cyclic and axial loading in literature is numerically simulated with 5 kinds of different reinforcement...

The goal of paper is to present the magnetic field calculations in high current bus ducts. Finiteelement method is used to do this. Bus ducts under study have figure such as circle area. Thecalculations will be using mathematical relations, meshed geometric shape and analyzing them.Geometric mean will help us to determine the value of magnetic field. COMSOL software is appliedfor simulation stu...

In order to study the basic mechanical property of cast-in-place stiffening-ribbed-hollow-pipe reinforced concrete girderless floor, and similarities and differences of the structural performance compared with traditional floor, we carried out the destructive stage loading test on the short-term load test of floor model with four clamped edges supported in large scale, and conducted the long-te...

Increases in power density and thermal efficiency of a highly efficient gas turbine engine motivate an ever-mounting entry temperature. The combined metallurgical cooling advancements ensure the structural integrity rotor blade that spins at high speeds stream with temperatures above melting point material. performances promoted by variety heat transfer enhancement methods typical coolant chann...
