Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental study of entropy generation during condensation in inclined enhanced tubes

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of inclination angle, temperature difference, mass velocity, and vapour quality on the entropy generation rate in an inclined enhanced tube during the flow condensation of R134a was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical investigation of natural convection of cavity receiver for low power application

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors acknowledge the support of the Department of Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering, University of Pretoria and the National======Research Foundation for the development of this paper.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Influence of the gap size on the wind loading on heliostats

TL;DR: In this article, the gap width between the panels and its influence on the wind loading that heliostats are subjected to were investigated and an atmospheric boundary layer profile was generated based on a wind tunnel experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI

External surface temperature measurements for the heat transfer analysis of internally heated cylindrical clad-tubes subjected to external forced convection bulk water coolant thermal-hydraulic conditions

TL;DR: In this article, a suitable technique was developed and validated against recognised forced convection heat transfer correlations, and the results showed that this technique was well suited for external forced convective heat transfer studies from heated surfaces exposed to forced-convection water coolants.

Experimental investigation on viscosity of nanofluids prepared from banana fibre - nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an ultrasonic sonicator to ensure proper mixtures of different volume fractions (0.3%, 0.6 %, 0.9 % 1.2 % and 1.5%) of Banana fibre nanoparticles into base fluid (DI water).
