Experimental and numerical investigation of convective heat transfer and fluid flow in twisted spiral tube
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the heat transfer performance of twisted tri-lobed tube (TTT) and twisted oval tube (TOT) with Reynolds number of 8000-21,000 with a validated SST k − ω turbulence model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating effective thermal conductivity in carbon paper diffusion media
TL;DR: In this paper, the effective thermal conductivity of carbon paper diffusion media was estimated numerically using GeoDict code and the governing mathematical equations were solved using the commercial software package Fluent (6.3.26) and the ThermoDict solver.
Influence of Interfacial Mixing on Thermal Boundary Conductance Across a Chromium/Silicon
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of interdiffusion or mixing around the interface, which is generally ignored, must be taken into account when the characteristic lengths of the devices are on the order of the thickness of this mixing region.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Analytical Unit Cell Model for the Effective Thermal Conductivity of High Porosity Open-Cell Metal Foams
TL;DR: In this article, an analytical model for the effective thermal conductivity of fluid-saturated metal foams with open cells is presented based on a realistic representative unit cell (a tetrakaidecahedron with cuboid node) under the assumption of parallel heat conduction along the highly tortuous cell ligaments and the saturating fluid.

New multi-physics approach for modelling and design of alkaline electrolyzers
TL;DR: In this article, a multi-physics model is used for the design and diagnosis of the alkaline electrolyzers, based on a new approach that allows to choose precisely the design parameters of a new electrolyzer even if it is not commercially available and predicting energy consumption, efficiency and rate of hydrogen production, taking into account to their physical state and various operating conditions.
