The effect of entrance configuration on local heat transfer coefficients in subsonic diffusers

Creator:: Stoffel, Edward Oswald
Abstract:: The effects of round, square, and reentrant entrances on flow regimes and local heat transfer coefficients were determined using a symmetrical, plane-wall two-dimensional, subsonic air diffuser with one of the diverging walls heated and maintained isothermal. Flow and heat transfer studies were made at total divergence angles ranging from 0...

An experimental study of natural convection in air between a vertical isothermal flat plate and a parallel insulted flat plate

Creator:: Lee, Soon Mo
Abstract:: The free convective heat transfer phenomena in air between two vertical plates 24 by 38 inches spaced 15.895 mm apart, was investigated in this experimental study. One plate was isothermal and, the other adiabatic. A quartz fiber anomometer was used for measuring local velocities in the air between the vertical...

Heat generation rates of nonfissionable materials in a nuclear reactor environment

Creator:: Zimmerman, Paul James
Abstract:: Radiation induced heat generation rates of several nonfissionable materials were measured calorimetrically in a nuclear reactor environment. The calorimeter was uniquely designed to allow many materials of grossly different heat generation rates to be measured. heat transfer characteristics of the calorimeter were determined analytically and experimentally. Materials were chosen to...

An experimental investigation of natural convection heat transfer from an array of uniformly heated vertical cylinders to mercury

Creator:: Dutton, Jonathan Craig
Abstract:: An experimental investigation was conducted for natural convection heat transfer in an array of uniformly heated vertical cylinders in mercury. The test section consisted of seven electrically heated cylinders of 1.365 inch diameter and 3.825 inch heated length arranged in an equilateral triangular pattern. In order to preclude side flow...

Cold trap performance : a general analysis

Creator:: Rothwell, Micheal Olin
Abstract:: A cold trap is a device used to remove certain impurities from a liquid metal by controlled precipitation of such impurities. An investigation of the thermal characteristics of laminar flow in two air-cooled cold traps was made. This investigation showed that the sodium heat transfer rate is a function of...

An experimental study of natural convection in air between a vertical isothermal flat plate and a parallel insulated flat plate

Creator:: Kim, Sung-Soo
Abstract:: Natural convection heat transfer in air between two vertical plates 38 by 24 inches was investigated in this work with spacings between the plates of 0.625, 1.0 and 1.75 inches. One plate was isothermal and the other adiabatic. To measure the point velocities in the air layer a very thin...

A pipe entry length solution for heat transfer and flow in Powell-Eyring fluids with temperature-dependent viscosity and constant flux boundary condition

Creator:: Etchart, David Ygnacio
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

On design and field evaluation of the noise control features of the Lake Oswego water treatment plant

Creator:: Reeder, Harry Cromwell
Abstract:: Concern about noise pollution has swept the country. People are conscious of their environment and are trying to preserve or to improve it. When the City of Lake Oswego selected a site for their water treatment plant, they had to assure the neighbors that it would not increase the ambient...

An experimental investigation of heat transfer in the transition and turbulent regimes for natural convection in mercury in a uniformly heated vertical channel

Creator:: Humphreys, William Warren
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

A comparative study of the performance of pin finned heat sinks for cooling electronic components by natural convection

Creator:: Manolescu, Mircea Ion
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine the heat transfer characteristics of pin finned heat sinks in natural convection. Three pin diameters were studied: 0.238 cm, 0.318 cm and 0.396 cm. The pins were attached to the base in two arrangements, triangular and rectangular, forming a horizontal array. Pin spacing was...
