Natural convection heat transfer from a tube bundle in the indirect water bath heaters is investigated. A computer-code is used for the solution of the governing equations of mass, momentum and energy transfer based on the SIMPLE-C algorithm. Simulations are carried out for the gas pressure station heater of Kermanshah city with various tube bundle arrangements. In order to validate the numeric...

The Montgomery T-tube poses a challenge to anesthesiologists because of loss of anesthetic gases through the open proximal end of the vertical limb and lack of standard anesthesia circuit connectors. Here, we present a case of a 25-year-old woman with a reported history of accidental strangulation 18 months previously. The patient had a metallic tracheostomy tube in situ due to the development ...

A method to obtain the local heat transfer coefficients of carbon dioxide at supercritical pressures in vertical multi-port mini-channels and in a vertical small tube under cooling conditions was presented through the combination of experiments and numerical simulation in this paper. The CFD code FLUENT 6.1 was used to simulate the convection heat transfer of cooling water to determine the loca...

An experimental investigation on heat transfer coefficient is presented from three horizontal tubes in a vertical array in a duct for 500<ReD<6000. A mass transfer measuring technique based on psychrometry chart is used to determine heat transfer coefficient. The diameter of the tubes is 11 mm each spaced 40 mm apart and in-line pitch ratio varies &#10in the range 0.055<D/W<0.22. The experimen...

In this study, the effect of the tube material on the thermal stress generated in a vertical shell and tube heat exchanger is investigated. Shell and tube heat exchangers are the most common heat exchangers used in industries. One of the most common failures in these exchangers in the industry is the tube failure at the junction of the tube to tubesheet. When the shell side and the tube side fl...

INTRODUCTION The discharge ofliquids from vertical tubes with various con­ traction geometries was studied via the unsteady Bernoulli equa­ tion. The temporal variations of the exit velocity and fluid level in the tube were found from the numerical integration of nonlin­ ear differential equations. Sudden, quadratic, and exponential contraction geometries were considered. For inlet to exit area...

The research aims to design and construct a new mixed vertical boiler (fire tube – water tube) with three gas passes. strength of this technological innovation is in the best use thermic transmission receiving fluid (hot water, steam, thermal oil), due its multipurpose function steps using alternative fuels (Diesel, Liquid Petroleum Gas LPG, natural gas), by improving efficiency temperature red...

IT IS WELL-KNOWN that failure to keep an E.S.R. tube vertical will result in a falsely high reading. An inclination of as little as 5° will cause sedimentation to take place more rapidly. Inclining the tube reduces the vertical distance of fall and increases the horizontal area of cross-section by the reciprocal of that factor. The Martin E.S.R. kit consists of a tube of the same bore as the st...
