Abstract In this study, based on the energy balance for different components of a double-layered vacuum-tube solar collector with U-tube, thermal performance unit is investigated separately using an analytical and quasi-dynamic method. The model used in study determines temperature distribution longitudinal radial directions. research, effects physical parameters heat transfer including size co...

This study aims to investigate the formability of AA2198-T3 Al-Li alloy in hydro-mechanical deep drawing (HMDD), through experimentation and finite element simulation. The effects most critical factors were studied: die cavity pressure forming temperature; temperature is selected at 298K 423K. Gurson?Tvergaard?Needleman model (GTN model) was employed analyze predict fracture hydroforming a cyli...

Product design in the early stages requires a more quantitative process to ensure that simulation study's outcome will meet expectations. The purpose of this study was determine whether manufacturing software package could effectively evaluate and validate conceptualised blank tooling manufacture sizeable complex- shaped aluminium alloy aircraft panel using die sheet hydroforming. Blank tool co...

development of new technologies and combined with creativity and innovation, plays the fundamental role in developing of any community′s value. thus, in this research the design and production of hydroforming device was introduced. one of the best and most efficient technologies in the world of metal forming is wind turbine blade producing with hydroforming method which seems as an innovative m...

A critical air velocity analysis was performed using a numerical model adapted for the eastern tunnel tube of Kastelec road in Slovenia. This allowed efficiency fans to be tested, which is required maintain appropriate traffic conditions and prescribed safety tunnel. At velocity, that is, at an lower than one, where spread smoke can still effectively controlled ensure time safe evacuation passe...

This paper presents evaluation and effect of blank radius on radial stresses through mathematical formulations in hydroforming deep drawing process using castor oil medium. Hydraulic pressure can enhance the capabilities of the basic deep drawing process for making cups. In hydroforming deep drawing process, applying the hydraulic pressure on blank periphery in radial direction. It is obtained ...
