Thermal Performance of a Novel Heat Transfer Fluid Containing Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes and Microencapsulated Phase Change Materials

Kalpana Tumuluri, +3 more
- 01 Dec 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, three new heat transfer fluids consisting of combinations of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and microencapsulated phase change materials (MPCMs) were formulated, and tested in a turbulent flow heat transfer loop.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conjugate natural convection combined with surface thermal radiation in a three-dimensional enclosure with a heat source

S. G. Martyushev, +2 more
- 01 Jun 2014 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical analysis of natural convection and surface thermal radiation in a cubical cavity having heat-conducting solid walls of finite thickness with a heat source located at the bottom of the cavity in conditions of convective heat exchange with an environment has been carried out.

High strength, nano-structured Mg–Al–Zn alloy

Baolong Zheng, +6 more
- 25 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical behavior and microstructure of nanocrystalline (nc) Mg AZ80 alloy, synthesized via a cryomilling and spark plasma sintering (SPS) approach are reported and discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A mathematical model to predict the effect of heat recovery on the wastewater temperature in sewers

David J. Dürrenmatt, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: A mathematical model is presented that calculates the discharge in a sewer conduit and the spatial profiles and dynamics of the temperature in the wastewater, sewer headspace, pipe, and surrounding soil and it was found that the model adequately reproduces the measured data.

Enhancing convective heat transfer in laminar and turbulent flow regions using multi-channel twisted tape inserts

Anucha Saysroy, +1 more
- 01 Nov 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the thermal and fluid behaviors of the tubes with multi-channel twisted tapes under constant wall temperature condition, and showed that the multichannel twisted tapes induce multi-swirling flows which help to improve fluid mixing and enhance heat transfer rate.
