A new bariline fish, Barilius kamjongensis is decribed from Kamjong district, the Chindwin basin of Manipur, India. It can be distinguished its congeners in having a body with 2 pairs barbels, 16–19 predorsal scales, 12–15 bars, 40–43 perforated lateral line 7.5/2.5 transverse origin dorsal-fin closed to base caudal-fin, pectoral-fin shorter than head length, depth at 22.8–26.6 % SL, caudal ped...

The low thermal conductivity of phase-change materials (PCMs) hampers the commercialization PCM cooling battery management systems. Further reduction resistance between and batteries is still a challenging problem. In this study, / pin fin design proposed. ANSYS Fluent was used to construct model design. SIMPLE algorithm second-order upwind scheme were solve momentum energy equations. Compared ...

An experimental investigation was carried out to study the single-phase stagnation point jet impingement heat transfer on smooth and micro pin fin structures using water and R134a. The experiments were carried out for a single jet (dj = 2.0 mm) impinging on a 2 2 mm micro-heater over a wide range of Reynolds numbers. Both an unfinned and a micro structured impingement surfaces were investigated...

This paper develops a semi-empirical expression for heat transfer in round tube plain fin heat exchangers that have relatively large fin pitch. Empirical heat transfer correlations currently available in the public domain are necessarily limited in their range of applicability, and their functional forms are generally not designed to converge to well-known physical results, for example when par...

Micro heat exchangers have been revealed to be efficient devices for improved transfer due short distances and increased surface-to-volume ratios. Further augmentation of the behaviour within microstructured can achieved with enhancement techniques, more precisely this study, passive techniques. Pin fin geometries influence flow path and, therefore, were chosen as option further improvement per...
