The article presents a practical technique for enhancing thermo-hydraulic performance of a circular tube. In this way, numerical method focusing on laminar tubular flow is used to compare the effectiveness of utilizing center-cleared twisted tapes instead of typical shape of short width tapes. Numerical analysis represented that using both center-cleared and typical shape of twisted tapes, Re e...

in the present work an attempt has been made to study the effect of the twisted tapes as bed internals, on the performance of the gas-solid fluidized beds. experimental investigation has been carried out in cylindrical column with and without twisted tapes. twelve numbers of twisted tapes of three different widths with four values of the twist ratios for each width were studied at different sta...

for continues production if field crops in arid and semi arid regions of the world, such as iran, beside of using of drought resistant varieties, water management must also be considered. in this context, the use of tape drip irrigation system could reduce the amount of irrigation water consumption. this study, was conducted to determine the best sowing pattern of sugar beet under type drip irr...

YBa2Cu3O7-X tapes fabricated from precursor powder, were used to investigate the effect of sintering conditions on the microstructure. The sintering experiments were carried out in oxygen over the temperature range of 915-950ْC. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the sintered products. The result indicated a significant increase in densification and grain growth when the tapes were...

one way to increase the heat transfer is to use perforated twisted tapes with different hole diameters, which largely improve heat transfer with an increase in the heat transfer area at the constant volume and more mixed flow. in the previous studies, the effect of nanofluids with perforated twisted tapes is less studied. in this work, the performance of water / iron oxide nanofluid in a double...
