The heat-transfer phenomena studied in this work were
associated with pool boiling from a flat horizontal surface facing
upward with the bulk liquid at its saturation temperature. The
analysis of boiling sound and the investigation of the transition boiling
mechanism constituted the essence of the present study.
The distinctively large...
This thesis is concerned with the analysis of heat transfer in a tube with forced flow under conditions of an arbitrary variation of wall heat flux both axially and circumferentially. This total study is separated into two distinct problems which are presented separately. The first is the case of a...
In fuel pin fabrication, there is no assurance that a
fuel pellet will be loaded concentrically. Therefore,
azimuthal variations exist in the temperature field giving
rise to asymmetry in the neutron flux distribution and pin
stresses. Calculations must be made to determine the two
dimensional temperature profile which may then...
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...
Eight male college students served as subjects in an investigation
to establish a procedural model for research of individual motor
units during sustained isometric contractions. Teca TE-4 electromyograph
system with needle electrode provided electrical potential
recordings from active muscle fibers in the right biceps. Various
experimental procedures were tested to...
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...
