Journal ArticleDOI
An improved heat transfer correlation for condensation inside inclined smooth tubes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a universally acceptable model capable of predicting the heat transfer coefficients during convective condensation inside inclined tubes subject to diabatic conditions using an extensive database of experimental results collected from previous studies.
Effectiveness of a municipal ground-coupled reversible heat pump system compared to an air-source system
S.A. Oerder,Josua P. Meyer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a ground-coupled reversible heat pump was investigated as an alternative to conventional air-source heat pumps, and the results indicated that this system can provide a cost-effective alternative to the more conventional airto-air systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
The design and experimental verification of heat exchanger accumulators used in small commercially available air conditioning systems
Josua P. Meyer,C. W. Wood +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model of a heat exchanger accumulator was developed and used to develop a universal design procedure that correctly sized the heat exchange process according to the operating system into which it was to be installed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maximum thermal conductance for a micro-channel, utilising Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal behavior of two micro-channel elements cooled by Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids was investigated, with the objective to maximise thermal conductance subject to constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI
The utilisation of air scoops for the improvement of ventilation in a coal mine heading
TL;DR: In this article, an investigation is conducted to determine if the ventilation in the heading of a coal mine can be increased by the utilisation of air scoops, and two scoops are investigated, one upstream of the heading and one downstream of it.
