Design optimization of baffle in heat exchanger for improving flow maldistribution and pressure drop
Heat exchangers (HEs) are used in process industries such as power plants and petroleum refineries. It is important to minimize flow maldistribution as well as pressure drop for high performance of HE. A baffle is often installed in the header part of HE

On Liquid Flow Maldistribution through Investigation of Random Open-Structure Packings
The optimal design of packed columns for separation processes is strongly dependent on an accurate prediction of the fluid flows in the packing. Insufficient knowledge about the complex factors and mechanisms governing hydrodynamic effects is compensated

A review of refrigerant maldistribution [PDF]
In recent years, conservation of energy has become a challenging issue in air-conditioning applications. In order to overcome this issue, many researchers have recommended the use of a Parallel Flow Condenser and a low Global Warming Potential and Ozone ...

The UW solution for canine kidney preservation: Its specific effect on renal hemodynamics and microvasculature [PDF]
The preservation effects of UW solution on renal hemodynamics and microvascular systems were studied in canine kidney autografts. In 72-hr UW-preserved kidneys, the microvessels of both cortex and medulla were completely visualized with silicon rubber ...
