... 09 03 2011 The heat transfer enhancement for phase change materials (PCMs) has received increasing attention nowadays, since most of PCMs have low thermal conductivities which prolong the charging and discharging processes. Metal foams, as a sort of novel material with high thermal...

... 09 03 2011 In this paper we present the results on experimental and numerical investigations of the local opposing mixed convection heat transfer in an inclined flat channel (φ = 60° from horizontal position) with symmetrical heating in the laminar-turbulent transition region...

... 09 03 2011 Heat transfer from a wedge to fluids at any Prandtl number can be predicted using the asymptotic model. In the asymptotic model, the dependent parameter Nu x / Re x 1 / 2 has two asymptotes. The first asymptote is Nu x / Re x 1 / 2...

... hydrate induction time are main technical barriers for the application of gas hydrate. A one-dimensional numerical model of heat transfer during gas hydrate film formation on gas-liquid interface is investigated by analyzing the process of static system. According to the rate of gas consumed, the relation...

..., or relative to the handled fluid composition. We propose to focus in the present work on the effect of the number of the emitted jets on the generated heat transfer, in presence of an unchanged uniform crossflow. To reach this goal, single, double and triple jet configurations were simulated, based upon...

... 09 03 2011 Effects of surface roughness, axial conduction, viscous dissipation, and rarefaction on heat transfer in a two–dimensional parallel plate microchannel with constant wall temperature are investigated numerically. Roughness is simulated by adding equilateral triangular...

... 09 03 2011 In the present study, a simulation has been developed to investigate the blood and temperature distribution in the human hand. The simulation consists of image-based mesh generation, blood flow modeling in large vessels, and finite element analysis of heat transfer...

... 09 03 2011 The paper gives the basic results of experimental investigation of hydrodynamics and nucleate boiling heat transfer in heat-absorbing devices of the ITER thermonuclear reactor, which are subjected to one-sided heating. Experimental data are obtained on pressure drop, heat...

... 09 03 2011 The flow and heat transfer in microchannels has been of great interest for some years now due to the significantly higher heat transfer coefficients useful for enhancing the heat transfer in very small but high heat flux applications such as electronics cooling. Nucleate...

... 09 03 2011 The subcooled boiling heat transfer (HT) and the steady-state critical heat fluxes (CHFs) in a short SUS304-tube with twisted-tape insert are systematically measured for mass velocities ( G = 4016 to 13950 kg/m 2 s), inlet liquid temperatures ( T in = 285.82 to 363.96 K...
