In general, coolant is a cooling medium used to cool workpieces and cutting tools during the machining process. PT Komatsu Undercariage Indonesia, LNC OKUMA 0002 chip crankcase contained lot of stagnant coolants. The factor that causes stagnate growl wasted through conveyor carried along with chip. Changing fluid needs be done in certain phase because use for too long sand accumulate. Excessive...

This paper presents a thermal-hydraulic analysis of a helium-cooled ceramic breeder blanket for the ITER. It is found that the blanket can operate at moderate pressure and temperatures, which coupled to the use of an inert gas, makes it particularly attractive from a safety standpoint. Transient analysis of the manifolding flow distribution indicates that the introduction of a diffusive plate a...

The cooling system of an Automobile plays an important role in its performance, consists of two main parts, known as radiator and fan. Improving thermal efficiency of engine leads to increase the engine's performance, decline the fuel consumption and decrease the pollution emissions. Water and ethylene glycol as conventional coolants have been widely used in radiators of an automotive industry ...

This paper investigates coolant topologies for High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) transmission and distribution cable systems. We explore options that allow for flexibility of operation, low temperature rise in the superconductor and low refrigerator power consumption. Topologies for cooling the cryostat and HTS in long-distance electric power transmission systems are explored. For transmis...

Miniaturization encourages the development of new manufacturing processes capable of fabricating features, like micro-channels, in order to use them for different applications, such as in fuel cells, heat exchangers, microfluidic devices and micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS). Many studies have been conducted on heat and fluid transfer in micro-channels, and they appeared significantly devi...

The temperature of the coolant is known to have significant influence on engine performance and emissions. Whereas existing literature describes the effects of coolant temperature in engines using fossil derived fuels, very few studies have investigated these effects when biofuel is used. In this study, Jatropha oil was blended separately with ethanol and butanol. It was found that the 80% jatr...

Reduction of energy consumption has played a significant role in industry. This paper describes a study on reducing energy consumption by machining process improvements. Methods of reducing energy consumption in a manufacturing line consisting of multiple machines are verified. First, to consolidate the processes, a series of horizontal machining centers are replaced with a 5axis machining cent...

Legionella pneumophila is involved in more than 95% cases of severe atypical pneumonia. Infection is mainly by inhalation the indoor aerosols through the water-coolant systems. Because some Legionella strains may be viable but not culturable, therefore, Taq polymerase, DNA amplification and semi-nested-PCR were carried out to detect Legionella-specific 16S-rDNA sequence. For this purpose, 1.5 l...

A Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer (PDPA) system is employed to measure the two-phase mist flow behavior including flow velocity field, droplet size distribution, droplet dynamics, and turbulence characteristics. Based on the droplet measurements made through PDPA, a projected profile describing how the air-mist coolant jet flow spreads and eventually blends into the hot main flow is proposed. T...
