Creator:: Blake, Grant C.
Abstract:: The Direct Reactor Auxiliary Cooling System (DRACS) is a passive safety system capable of removing decay heat directly from the reactor core. Its modularity makes it scalable for use in reactors with various power levels. Work has previously been completed to support inclusion of the DRACS in liquid metal reactors...

Creator:: Rasouli, Erfan
Abstract:: The ever increasing requirements for heat dissipation in various thermal management applications such as computer chip cooling and high power electronics have necessitated the need for novel thermal management techniques. Thermal management using heat sinks with microscale features is amongst the prominent techniques developed over the past two decades. In...

Creator:: Adams, Ronald Lynn
Abstract:: A steady gas convection model of heat transfer to a horizontal cylinder immersed in a gas fluidized bed is presented. Contributions due to flow within attached bubbles as well as the interstitial voids are included. The interstitial flow is approximated as flow within a series of double cusped channels and...

Creator:: Mahbod, Bahram
Abstract:: An analytical model of the radiative contribution to the total heat transfer between a large-particle (greater than 1 mm) gas-fluidized bed and an immersed horizontal tube is discussed. The model is applied to the case of a bubbling bed and the emulsion phase contribution is obtained from a detailed analysis...

Creator:: Lei, David Hsien-Yu
Abstract:: Experimental data are reported for the time-averaged local radiative and total heat transfer coefficients for both an array of horizontal tubes as well as a single horizontal tube immersed in a large-particle fluidized bed at elevated temperatures. Spatial-averaged heat transfer coefficients computed from the local values, using a simple trapezoidal...

Creator:: Strid, Logan
Abstract:: The research presented in this thesis is a continuation of collaboration between Oregon State University and Auburn University studying the feasibility of passively pumping liquid during boiling in a preferential direction using meso-scaled asymmetric surface patterns. Such a passive phase-change mechanism has great potential for thermal management in spacecraft and...

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...
