Fully developed laminar natural convection in a vertical parallel-plate duct with constant wall heat flux

Creator:: Aktan, Gülçin
Abstract:: The problem of heat transfer due to free convection in a channel formed by two parallel, isoflux, vertical plates is of considerable importance in electronic cooling applications, thermosiphons, the optimum spacing of plates or components, industrial stacks, heat exchangers, nuclear power plants and combustion involving vertical walls. Although in each...

Experimental investigation of supercritical heat transfer of carbon dioxide in parallel square microchannels with a single-wall constant heat flux boundary condition

Creator:: Zada, Kyle R.
Abstract:: In the vicinity of the pseudocritical point, supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) undergoes a steep change in properties from “liquid-like” to “gas-like” as it is heated at a constant pressure. At the same time, there is a large spike in specific heat which can yield high heat transfer coefficients and heat...

Lateral fluid motion in nucleate boiling through asymmetric surface structures

Creator:: Kapsenberg, Florian
Abstract:: This thesis presents a feasibility study of a means to passively effect liquid motion parallel to a heated surface though surface geometrical modifications. Such a passive system is beneficial for electronics cooling applications as it reduces the pumping equipment normally required in flow loops and is desired for space applications,...

A thermal hydraulics analysis of a molybdenum production element for implementation in TRIGA reactors

Creator:: Byfield, Patrick
Abstract:: The metastable isotope of technetium-99 (Tc-99m) is an important diagnostic tool used in the field of nuclear medicine due to the isotope's 6.0 hour half-life, 140.5 keV γ-decay mechanism, and multiple oxidation states [1,2]. Approximately 70% of the world’s nuclear medicine procedures involve the use of Tc-99m [3]. The conventional...

Numerical design of a high-flux microchannel solar receiver

Creator:: Rymal, Charles
Abstract:: This thesis discusses the design of several microchannel solar receiver devices for use in CSP (concentrated solar power) using CFD (computational fluid dynamics) simulations. The goal is to demonstrate that, by taking advantage of the higher heat transfer coefficienct of microchannels, solar receivers can achieve higher efficiency than current receiver...

Design, modeling and performance of miniature reciprocating expander for a heat actuated heat pump

Creator:: Herron, Thomas G.
Abstract:: A miniature reciprocating expander is being developed as part of a larger program to develop a heat actuated heat pump for portable applications. By utilizing the higher energy density of liquid hydrocarbon fuels relative to batteries, a heat actuated heat pump would be able to provide cooling for much longer...

The local natural convection heat transfer coefficient on a heated horizontal cylinder oscillating in water

Creator:: Martin, Timothy William
Abstract:: An experimental study has been made of the local natural convective heat transfer coefficient around the circumference of a heated horizontal cylinder oscillating vertically in water. The heat transfer surface consisted of a 1 3/8-inch diameter cylinder with a small test section imbedded in its surface. This enabled data to...
