in this paper the effect of site conditions, which are altitude, temperature and relative humidity and also heat dissipation capacity are investigated on the optimized design of natural draft dry cooling towers with specific kind of heat exchangers, known as forgo t60 type. a genetic algorithm program has been developed for optimized design of these cooling towers. objective function includes b...

High-quality single crystals of Lu2Fe3Si5 and Sc2Fe3Si5 are grown by the floatingzone method, and their temperature dependences of specific heat are measured down to 0.35 K. Both compounds show anomalously small jump in specific heat at the superconducting transition temperature, Tc, and large residual specific heat coefficient even at 0.2Tc, where BCS superconductor shows negligible electronic...

In many industrial processes, heat exchangers play the important role of the cooling function. The effective heat transfer rate in a specific process strongly depends on the heat exchanger design. The most popular type of heat exchangers commonly used in the automotive industry, is called "radiator". In engines, radiators play the important role of the cooling process. The present study is de...

this paper presents a numerical simulation of developing flow and heat transfer of a viscoelastic fluid in a rectangular duct. in fully developed flow of a viscoelastic fluid in a non-circular duct, secondary flows normal to the flow direction are expected to enhance the rate of heat and mass transfer. on the other hand, properties such as viscosity, thermal conductivity, specific heat and rela...

Exact relation for contributions to heat capacity of liquids is obtained from hydrodynamic theory. It is shown from analysis of the long-wavelength limit of heat density autocorrelation functions that the heat capacity of simple liquids is represented as a sum of two contributions due to "phonon-like" collective excitations and heat relaxation. The ratio of both contributions being the analogy ...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of radiation heat transfer on temperature distribution and heat flux to the walls of a diesel engine. A diffusion flame is modeled in a simple cylindrical geometry and boundary conditions are defined. A specific solver which can model the turbulent diffusion flame by considering radiation in participating media is used to solve the problem....

within the effective-field theory with correlations (eft), a transverse random field spin-1 ising model on the simple cubic (z=6) lattice is studied. the phase diagrams, the behavior of critical points, transverse magnetization,  internal energy, magnetic specific heat are obtained numerically and discussed for different values of p the concentration of the random transverse field.
