this paper was aimed to address the modeling of effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of carbon structured nanofluids. response surface methodology, d_optimal design (dod) was employed to assess the main and interactive effects of temperature (t) and weight percentage (wt %) to model effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of multi wall and single wall carbon nanotube, cvd and rgo g...

Membrane distillation has the potential to concentrate solutions to their saturation level, thus offering the possibility to recover valuable salts from the solutions. The process performance and stability, however, is strongly dependent upon the features of membranes applied. In addition, several other parameters, membrane thickness and thermal conductivity significantly affect the process per...

to design the equipment and facilities for preservation, storage and processing of pomegranate, it is necessary to know the specific heat and thermal conductivity of the fruit components. the specific heat of exocarp, mesocarp and of seeds of pomegranate were assessed at three moisture content levels (30, 50 and 76% for seed and mesocarp; 15, 35 and 52% for exocarp) and at four temperature leve...

A simple model to describe the relationship between the temperature of the developing embryo, incubator temperature, embryo heat production, and thermal conductivity of the egg and surrounding air is presented. During early incubation, embryo temperature is slightly lower than incubator temperature because of evaporative cooling. However, from midincubation onwards, metabolic heat production fr...

In this study, thermal performance across straight convecting- radiating fin with temperature dependent thermal conductivity is considered. The variation of parameters (VPM) is adopted to analyze the nonlinear higher order differential equations arising due to thermal conductivity and heat transfer coefficient on temperature distribution. Pertinent parameters such as thermo geometric and radiat...

The object of the present paper is to study temperature distribution and thermal stresses of a functionally graded thick hollow cylinder with temperature dependent material properties. All the material properties except Poisson’s ratio are assumed to be dependent on temperature. The nonlinear heat conduction with temperature dependent thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity is reduced t...

In conduction, thermal rectification occurs when a material or structure transfers heat asymmetrically. In this work, it is shown that, in the bulk, the necessary condition for thermal rectification is that the thermal conductivity of the material or structure be a function of both space and temperature, and that this function is not separable. Practically, this can be achieved using a composit...

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY MEASUREMENT OF THIN FILM OF CARBON SWNT USING THE 300 TECHNIQUE Anton Nickolaevich Sidorov November 2005 We have measured the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity, K(1) of single walled carbon nanotubes from 300 K to 8 K by 3w method. K(1) exhibits linear temperature dependence in the entire temperature range. Our results are in good agreement with the results obtaine...

Atomically thin molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) offers potential for advanced devices and an alternative to graphene due to its unique electronic and optical properties. The temperature-dependent Raman spectra of exfoliated, monolayer MoS2 in the range of 100-320 K are reported and analyzed. The linear temperature coefficients of the in-plane E2g 1 and the out-of-plane A1g modes for both suspended ...
