The Experimental Investigation on the Transpiration Cooling
In this paper, the effectiveness and the coefficient of heat transfer with the transpiration of distilled water and air across the porous plate are discussed. The conditions selected for the experiments were as follows : Velocity of bulk flow is 5∼35 m/sec Temperature of bulk flow is 100∼600°C Mass flow ratio is 0.05∼10% From this investigation the ...

A numerical analysis of transpiration cooling as an air cooling mechanism
The present study is focused on investigation of heat transfer from a porous plate by cooling of air with transpiration cooling. Effects of Reynolds number of hot gas stream, inlet temperature of air and mass flow rate of water on local wall temperature and cooling effectiveness of porous flat plate and efficiency of the system inside a rectangular ...

Transpirational Cooling of Greenhouse Crops [PDF]
Background Transplanting vegetable seedlings to final spacing in the greenhouse is common practice. At the time of transplanting, the transpiring leaf area is a small fraction of the ground area and its cooling effect is rather limited. A preliminary modeling study suggested that if water supply from root to canopy is not limiting, a sparse crop could ...

Dynamic data driven adaptive control of an active-passive combined thermal protection system
Thermal protection systems (TPSs) are critical for hypersonic flight safety. Conventional passive TPSs suffer from limited adaptability to thermal overload and increased structural weight under high heat-flux conditions, whereas active TPSs often exhibit
