Volumetric receiver development : a heat transfer and design evaluation of an advanced air heating solar thermal central receiver concept

Creator:: Drost, M. K.
Abstract:: The volumetric receiver is an advanced solar central receiver concept designed to produce high temperature air. This document presents the results of a heat transfer and performance evaluation of the volumetric receiver concept. The volumetric receiver consists of an array of ceramic fins or fibers arranged in concentric rows around...

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...

Solid/liquid phase change in small passageways : a numerical model

Creator:: Coven, Patrick J.
Abstract:: During the operation of phase-change ink-jet printers a bubble formation phenomenon often occurs. These bubbles are detrimental to the operation of the printer and substantial efforts are made to remove them. The objective of this research was 1: to develop a fundamental understanding of how bubble or void formation occurs...

Experimental studies of heat transfer with an array of horizontal tubes immersed in a high-temerature fluidized bed

Creator:: Goshayeshi, Ali
Abstract:: An experimental study is described in which time-average local heat transfer coefficients were obtained for arrays of horizontal tubes immersed in a hot fluidized bed. Spatial-averaged heat transfer coefficients, computed from local values, are also reported. Refractory particles with surface mean diameters of 2.14 mm and 3.23 mm were fluidized...

Experimental investigation of natural convection of mercury in an open, uniformly heated, vertical channel

Creator:: Colwell, Robert G.
Abstract:: An experimental investigation was conducted to determine characteristics of natural convection of mercury in a vertical channel, which was open at both ends. Two cases were investigated separately: 1) both walls uniformly and symmetrically heated, and 2) one wall heated with the other insulated. Heat transfer correlations in laminar 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...
