an investigation has been carried out on the temperature of a biscuit on the cooling line of razavi food industries company. for thispurpose, the time variations of biscuit’s top surface temperature in traveling from oven to packing station on the conveyor packing station by conveyors has been studied. the fourier field equation for transient heat transfer is used as the basis for the determini...

Interfacial thermal conductance (ITC) affects heat transfer in many physical phenomena and is an important parameter for various technologies. The article considers the influence of mesoscopic effects on ITC, such as through gas gap, near-field radiative transfer, changes wetting behavior during melting. Various contributions to ITC liquid-solid interfaces processes fast pre-melting melting met...

The MELCOR Core (COR) package calculates the thermal response of the core and lower plenum internal structures, including the portion of the lower head directly below the core. The package also models the relocation of core and lower plenum structural materials during melting, slumping, and debris formation, including failure of the reactor vessel and ejection of debris into the reactor cavity....

The Wang-Landau Monte Carlo approach is applied to the coil-globule and melting transitions of off-lattice flexible homopolymers. The solid-liquid melting point and coil-globule transition temperatures are identified by their respective peaks in the heat capacity as a function of temperature. The melting and theta points are well separated, indicating that the coil-globule transition occurs sep...

In this study, by using the finite volume method, the heat transfer in a convective straight fin with temperature-dependent thermal properties and an internal heat generation under multi-boiling heat transfer modes are analyzed. In this regard, the local heat transfer coefficient is considered to vary within a power-law function of temperature. In the present study, the coexistence of all the b...

the performance of a γ-al 2 o 3 /n-decane nanofluid shell-and-tube heat exchanger in a biomass heating plant is analyzed to specify the optimum condition based on the maximum heat transfer rate and performance index for wide range of nanoparticle volume fraction (0–7%). compared with pure          n-decane, the obtained results in this research show that by using γ-al 2 o 3 /n-decane nanofluid ...
