basic understanding of the process of coolant heat transfer inside an engine is an indispensable prerequisite to devise an infallible cooling strategy. coolant flow and its heat transfer affect the cooling efficiency, thermal load of heated components, and thermal efficiency of a diesel engine. an efficient approach to studying cooling system for diesel engine is a 3d computational fluid dynami...

development of a numerical model which describes launching of offshore jackets from barge is presented in this paper. in this model, in addition to capabilities of commercial softwares, water entry forces on jacket members and an implicit newmark solution technique are included. the results are in general agreement with other numerical software’s available (sacs). fluid forces acting on jacket ...

different control strategies of bed temperature and moisture were investigated using various inlet air temperatures and air fluxes in both the ordinary packed bed bioreactor (without cooling water in the jacket) and the bioreactor with cooling water in jacket. the experiments were carried out within a 1-l solid-state packed bed bioreactor in which aspergillus niger was cultivated on wheat bran....

The aim of this study is to discover the characteristics of the cooling water in the cylinder head of a high-power diesel engine by using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). A 3-D geometric model of a cylinder head water jacket was previously constructed using Unigraphics software. A mesh was then imposed on the model using the preprocessor of Fluent software, GAMBIT. Three types of thermal...

Laboratory and sea trials were used to compare the effectiveness of three aircrew exposure garments--the British Mark 10, the United States CWU 21/P, and the Canadian U.VIC. Thermofloat jacket. The first two are waterproof coveralls, whereas the third is a neoprene-lined jacket designed on the basis of the "wet suit" concept. Rectal and skin temperatures, electrocardiograms and other variables ...

Physical model tests with the scale of 1:36 are carried out in the Near-Shore Wave Basin (NSWB) at Tainan Hydraulics Laboratory (THL) with the jacket-type offshore wind turbine foundation (jacket-type foundation) and the combination of hard or soft scour protection in the test area. Scouring around the jacket-type foundation exposed to wave and current was conducted in the NSWB with a mobile be...

This study investigates the seismic response of a horizontal axis wind turbine on two bottom-fixed support structures for transitional water depths (30-60 m), a tripod and a jacket, both resting on pile foundations. Fully coupled, nonlinear time-domain simulations on full system models are carried out under combined wind-wave-earthquake loadings, for different load cases, considering fixed and ...
