Design optimization of thermoacoustic refrigerators

TL;DR: The simplified linear model of thermoacoustics - the short stack boundary layer approximation - is implemented into a systematic design and optimization algorithm and serves as an easy-to-follow guideline for the design of therMOacoustic refrigerators.
Journal ArticleDOI

A heat transfer model of skin tissue for the detection of lesions: sensitivity analysis.

TL;DR: This work validates the idea of examining the transient thermal response obtained using a thermal imaging system with the objective of lesion identification and conducts a detailed sensitivity analysis to interpret the changes in the surface temperature distribution as a function of variations in thermophysical properties, blood perfusion rate, metabolic heat generation and thicknesses of skin layers, using a multilayer computational model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantification of the thermal signature of a melanoma lesion

TL;DR: Comparisons of data obtained by imaging benign and malignant pigmented lesions show a distinct difference in the thermal responses between healthy tissue and the malignant lesion, which can be used to identify malignant lesions and quantify their malignant potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia enhances radiation therapy: A study in mouse models of human prostate cancer

TL;DR: PC3 and LAPC-4 tumours represent two biological models that demonstrate different patterns of nanoparticle retention and distribution, offering a model to make comparisons of these effects for mNPH and offering potential to overcome limitations of MIONP distribution to enhance mN PH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat transfer enhancement in a grooved channel with curved vanes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors visualize unsteady temperature fields in the grooved channel with curved vanes using holographic interferometry and compare the heat transfer performance of the investigated channel is compared with that of the basic groove channel.
