Heat and mass transfer, in this paper, is considered in one-row heat exchanger, that fins are hotter than air flow and water is added to fins. Related governing equations are derived by analyzing a two-dimension model in a unique cell of a heat exchange. These equations are numerically solved by finite difference method. Heat transfer and efficiency under partially wet surface are calculated by...

abstract in this research the thermal stratification of the water in the torogh dam basin and the resulted changes in its quality with respect to temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen was investigated using the dynamic reservoir simulation model. the results indicated that in wet years such as 1998, when the average annual precipitation and the resulted inflows to the basin is higher than ...

In this study, nanofluids of Chromium (Cr) in water, Ethylene Glycol and Ethanol have been prepared using single step method. The thermal conductivity and diffusivity of these nanofluids were measured via hot wire-photothermal deflection technique. Based on finite difference method (FDM) temperature distribution and photothermal deflection caused by the hot wire inside nanofluids was obtained. ...

In this paper, the measurement of the viscosity of ZnO in ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, mixture of ethylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight), and a mixture of propylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight) and the thermal conductivity in ethylene glycol and propylene glycol as base fluids in the range of temperature from 25 ºC to 60 ºC are investigated. The results indicate that as the tem...

1. Despite escalating conflict over fresh water, recent years have witnessed a growing realisation that human society must modify its behaviour to ensure long-term ecological vitality of riverine ecosystems. In response, ecologists have been increasingly asked to guide instream flow management by providing ‘environmental flow’ prescriptions for sustaining the ecological integrity of riverine sy...

The goal of this paper is to experimentally study the behavior of nanofluid to improve the performance of a circular heat pipe. Pure water and Al2O3-water based nanofluid are used as working fluids. An experimental setup is designed and constructed to study the heat pipe performance under different operating conditions. The effect of filling ratio, volume fraction of nano-particle in the base f...

We investigate using transient non-equilibrum molecular dynamics simulation the temperature relaxation process of three structurally different proteins in water, namely; myoglobin, green fluorescence protein (GFP) and two conformations of the Ca(2+)-ATPase protein. By modeling the temperature relaxation process using the solution of the heat diffusion equation we compute the thermal conductivit...

In this study multivariate statistical analysis are used to characterize relationships between hydrochemical properties ofthermal and non-thermal springs. Four factors for thermal waters and two for non-thermal springs were extracted basedon factor analysis. In thermal springs, the first factor showed high loading on Ca, Mg, Na and K and this factor wasinterpreted as leaching of cations in the ...
