complex heat transfer phenomena (including unsteady state conduction, convection and solidification processes) occur in steel belt conveyer sulfur granulating method. numerical simulation of this technique is performed via a comprehensive and multifaceted one dimensional model. since the air situated between the adjacent sulfur pastilles is essentially stagnant, therefore, the surface temperatu...

Experimental investigations of heat transfer coefficient of CuO/Water nanofluid are reported in this paper. The heat transfer coefficient of the CuO/water was measured with the help of double pipe heat exchanger. The nanofluid was prepared by dispersing a CuOnano particle in deionized water. CuO/water nanofluid with a nominal diameter of 27nm at different volume concentrations (0.1 &0.3 vol.%) ...

The heat transfer of a water spray impinging upon a surface in a very low pressure environment is of interest to cooling of space vehicles during launch and re-entry, and to industrial processes where flash evaporation occurs. At very low pressure, the process occurs near the triple point of water, and there exists a transient multiphase transport problem of ice, water and water vapor. At the i...

Field experiments were conducted to validate a one-dimensional numerical Simple Soil Plant Atmospheric Transfer (SiSPAT) model that simulates heat and water transfer through the root zone of a surface irrigated, cropped sandy soil. The model accounts for the dominant processes involved in water and heat transfer in a cropped soil. Model validation used field experimental data from 2004 and sugg...

Water plays a central role in chemistry and biology by mediating the interactions between molecules, altering energy levels of solvated species, modifying potential energy profiles along reaction coordinates, and facilitating efficient proton transport through ion channels and interfaces. This study investigates proton transfer in a model system comprising dry and microhydrated clusters of nucl...

We report on a comparative femtosecond infrared study of the bimolecular proton transfer reaction dynamics of the photoacid pyranine (8-hydroxy-1,3,6-trisulfonate-pyrene, abbreviated as HPTS) with the family of carboxylate bases OOCCH(3 x)Clx (x = 0–3) in aqueous solution. We use a generalized reaction model consisting of n proton transfer reaction pathways between photoacid and base, each path...
