An Experimental Study of Thermal Energy Storage With Phase‐Change Material in a Rectangular Box Filled With Aluminum Foam

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
We experimentally evaluate a rectangular latent‐heat thermal energy storage box filled with paraffin RT57. Embedding 1–3 aluminum‐foam pieces (ε ≈ 0.89 and 10 PPI) increases effective thermal conductivity, making the temperature field more uniform and accelerating phase change.

Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.

Prandtl number and thermoacoustic refrigerators

open access: yes, 2002
From kinetic gas theory, it is known that the Prandtl number for hard-sphere monatomic gases is 2/3. Lower values can e realized using gas mixtures of heavy and light monatomic gases. Prandtl numbers varying between 0.2 and 0.67 are obtained by using gas

The Combined Effects of Variable Viscosity and Thermal Conductivity of An Unsteady Casson Fluid Flow Along a Vertical Porous Channel With Convective Cooling Walls, Using the Bivariate Spectral Local Linearization Method

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the combined impact of different thermal conductivity and viscosity on unsteady non‐Newtonian Casson fluid flow of incompressible, electrical conductivity in a porous vertical channel with convective cooling walls, uniform magnetic field, and constant pressure gradient.

Onset of zero Prandtl number convection

open access: yes, 1992
The transition to convection in a zero Prandtl number fluid with stress-free and perfectly conducting boundaries differs significantly from finite Prandtl number convection, giving rise to a three-dimensional pattern. Two possible scenarios are described
