in this paper, we develop an efficient legendre wavelets collocation method for well known time-fractional heat equation. inthe proposed method, we apply operational matrix of fractionalintegration to obtain numerical solution of the inhomogeneoustime-fractional heat equation with lateral heat loss and dirichletboundary conditions. the power of this manageable method isconfirmed. moreover, the ...

Small heat shock proteins (sHsp) constitute an evolutionary conserved yet diverse family of chaperones acting as first line of defence against proteotoxic stress. sHsps coaggregate with misfolded proteins but the molecular basis and functional implications of these interactions, as well as potential sHsp specific differences, are poorly explored. In a comparative analysis of the two yeast sHsps...

an irreversible stirling heat pump cycle using ferromagnetic materials as a cyclic working substance is established. the influences of finite-rate heat transfer, heat leak, regeneration time, regenerative lossand the internal irreversibility on the cyclic performance of magnetic heat pumps are taken into account. on the basis of the thermodynamic properties of ferromagnetic materials, the perfo...

fridges are used in various industries, and heat exchanger is one of the main components of these systems; therefore, efficiency analysis of these systems is very important. in many fridges, frost over the heat exchanger tubes or pipes affects the system operation and reduces heat transfer between the refrigerant and ambient, so defrosting systems are usually used to enhance heat transfer. desi...

in this paper, the conjugate gradient method coupled with adjoint problem is used in order to solve the inverse heat conduction problem and estimation of the time- dependent heat flux using the temperature distribution at a point in a three layer system with none homogeneous boundary conditions. also, the effect of noisy data on final solution is studied. for solving this problem the general co...

heat exchangers are the critical components of refrigeration and liquefaction processes. selection of appropriate operational conditions for cryogenic recuperative heat exchanger and expansion valve operating in joule-thomson cooling system results in improving the performance and efficiency. in the current study, a straightforward procedure is introduced to design an efficient joule-thomson co...

in this work, improved heat generation models are developed for straight and tapered shoulder geometries with different tool pin profiles in friction stir welding. the models are developed considering the welding process as a combination of the pure sliding and the pure sticking conditions. from the results, the amount of heat generation is directly proportional to the number of edges in the pi...

in this study. optimum allocation of heat transfer inventory for heat exchangers in a refrigeration system with specified power input or cooling capacity. and for a heat pump with specified heating capacity is investigated. the ratio of hot- to cold-end conductance unit cost ratio. g.was considered in the analysis as an additional variable of considerable importance to the designer summarized e...

in this study, thermal performance of a cylindrical heat pipe is investigated numerically. three different types of water based nanofluids, namely (al2o3+water), (diamond+water) and (multi-wall carbon nano tube (mwcnt) +water) have been used. the influence of using the simple nanofluids and mwcnt nanofluid on the heat pipe characteristics such as liquid velocity, pressure profile, temperature p...
