Energy saving potential of a counter-flow regenerative evaporative cooler for various climates of China: Experiment-based evaluation [PDF]
© 2017 Recently there has been growing interest in regenerative evaporative coolers (REC), which can reduce the temperature of the supply air to below the wet-bulb of intake air and approach its dew-point.

Film cooling modeling of a turbine vane with multiple configurations of holes
Film cooling flow is important for gas turbine thermal protection. But it is difficult to predict the film cooling flow performances. The aim of this paper is to modeling the film cooling flow of a turbine vane with endwall film cooling, showerhead film ...

Efficacy of different antifouling treatments for seawater cooling systems [PDF]
In an industrial seawater cooling system, the effects of three different antifouling treatments, viz. sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), aliphatic amines (Mexel1432) and UV radiation, on the characteristics of the fouling formed were evaluated.

Response-surface-model-based system sizing for nearly/net zero energy buildings under uncertainty [PDF]
Properly treating uncertainty is critical for robust system sizing of nearly/net zero energy buildings (ZEBs). To treat uncertainty, the conventional method conducts Monte Carlo simulations for thousands of possible design options, which inevitably leads
