The present study explains a steady-state method of measuring convective heat transfer coefficient on the casing of an axial flow turbine. The goal is to develop an accurate steadystate heat transfer method for the comparison of various casing surface and tip designs used for turbine performance improvements. The free-stream reference temperature, especially in the tip gap region of the casing ...

The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) was used to analyze two-dimensional (2D) non-Fourier heat conduction with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity. To this end, the evolution of wave-like temperature distributions in a 2D plate was obtained. The temperature distributions along certain parts of the plate, which was subjected to heat generation and constant thermal conductivity condit...

Mn K-edge fluorescence data are presented for thin film samples (3000 Å) of Colossal Magnetoresistive (CMR) La0.67Ca0.33MnO3: as-deposited, and post-annealed at 1000 K and 1200 K. The local distortion is analyzed in terms of three contributions: static, phonon, and an extra, temperature-dependent, polaron term. The polaron distortion is very small for the as-deposited sample and increases with ...

abstract: in this paper, a new population-based search called the bees algorithm (ba) is presented to estimate the time-dependent heat transfer coefficient and the corresponding heat flux at the boundaries of a two-dimensional body subjected to transient heat conduction, using the temperature measurements at discrete nodal locations on the boundaries, where heat flux is specified as the boundar...

Friction stir welding is an innovative joining process being developed for use in aerospace manufacturing. Like most welding processes there exist problems with post-weld residual stresses and subsequent geometrical distortion. The residual stress-state of a welded component can be modified using suitably applied mechanical tensioning and thus distortion can be reduced or eliminated. In the pre...

Mn K-edge fluorescence data are presented for thin-film samples (3000 Å) of colossal magnetoresistive ~CMR! La0.67Ca0.33MnO3: as deposited, and post annealed at 1000 and 1200 K. The local distortion is analyzed in terms of three contributions: static, phonon, and an extra, temperature-dependent, polaron term. The polaron distortion is very small for the as-deposited sample and increases with th...

The objectives in this work were to develop, calibrate, and apply a model to predict ideal taper profiles down the narrow faces of the SIDERAR slab casting mold for several different casting speeds, steel grades, flux powder compositions, and widths. A significant amount of original research was undertaken for this challenging problem. A finite difference model of transient 1-D heat conduction ...

pistachio has a special ranking among iranian agricultural products. iran is known as the largest producer and exporter of pistachio in the world. agricultural products are imposed under different thermal treatments during storage and processing. designing all these processes requires thermal parameters of the products such as specific heat capacity. regarding the importance of pistachio proces...
