SMITN, E. NORBERT. Cutaneous heat fZow during heating and cooZing in Alligator mississipiensis. Am. J. Physiol. 230(S): 12054210. 1976. -Direct in vivo measurement of heat flow across the skin of the American alligator (AlZigator mississipiensis) showed increased heat flow during warming. Mean values at 25OC during warming (15-35°C) in air (airspeed 300 cm/s) were 17.9 t 1.2 SE Cal/cm” per h (m...

in this paper the effect of block shape vortex generators (vgs) on an air-water fin-tube heat exchanger has been studied experimentally using exergy analysis method. also the effect of these vgs on increasing heat transfer rate has been simulated numerically and the results show a good agreement with the experiments. in this research we used a wind tunnel to produce wind flow over heat exchange...

Experiments were conducted to investigate local heat transfer coefficients and flow characteristics of air flow in a 962 lm inner diameter stainless steel microtube (minichannel). The effects of heat loss, axial heat conduction and viscous heating were systematically analyzed. Heat losses during the experiments with gas flow in small diameter tubes vary considerably along the flow length, causi...

Nanofluid is a new class of heat transfer fluids engineered by dispersing metallic or non-metallic nanoparticles with a typical size of less than 100 nm in the conventional heat transfer fluids.This article aims to investigate the overall and convection heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number of Al2O3-water nanofluid flowing in a horizontal double pipe heat exchanger under turbulent flow (...

high temperatures are often encountered in almost all of the combustion systems, therefore, thermal radiation heat transfer can influence the droplets heat up rate and consequently their life time. in this paper, the effect of thermal radiation heat transfer is investigated for two cases of directional and spherically symmetric illuminations. the flow and temperature fields insdie and outside o...

Large-scale, lateral fluid flow through oceanic crust provides an explanation for regionally low heat flow in several seafloor settings. A well-mixed aquifer (WMA) model provides a quantitative and conceptual tool for explaining anomalously low heat flow based on an analytical representation of fluid and heat flow, assuming lateral fluid flow in basement in a layer directly below the ocean sedi...

Introduction: Recently, Galileo spacecraft data have revealed Io’s polar regions to be much warmer than previously expected. This unexpected development came from Photo-Polarimeter Radiometer (PPR) data which show that the minimum night temperatures are in the range of 90-95 K virtually everywhere on Io [1-4]. The minimum night temperatures show no dependence upon latitude and, when away from t...
