Effect of thermocapillarity and variable thermal conductivity on the heat transfer analysis of a non-Newtonian liquid thin film over a stretching surface in the presence of thermal radiation and heat source/sink

open access: yesNonlinear Engineering, 2018
An analysis illustrating the flow of an Ostwald-de-Waele liquid film on an unsteady stretching sheet under the influence of thermocapillary force, magnetic field and viscous dissipation is carried out. In this study, thermal conductivity is assumed to be

Study on Criterion of Acoustic Resonant Vibration with Unsteady Fluid Dynamic Force.

open access: yesTRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series B, 1998
Ducts containing a tube bundle undergo acoustic resonant vibration. It is considered that the acoustic vibration is a kind of forced vibration by means of Karman vortex. However, it will be more reasonable to think that the vibration is a kind of mutual excited vibration, because fluid dynamic force excites a sound pressure and the sound pressure also ...

Resonance‐induced restoration of rock permeability degraded by heavy components of crude oil

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Resonance‐induced changes occur in filtration properties of sedimentary rocks in crude paraffin oil flow under acoustic vibrations. Experimental data on (a) pressure drop; (b) permeability; (c) pressure at the rock inlet; and (d) pressure at the rock outlet are presented.

An assessment of stress and production rate of sucker rod heat pipes in oil well pumping system

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The sucker rod pumping system is the preferred oil extraction technique. The concept about equipping the hollow vacuum space in solid sucker rods with heat pipe has been scrutinized in terms of stress and oil production evaluation. Abstract The implementation of the heat pipe concept in sucker rods for oil pumping systems negates the requirement for an

Numerical Simulations of Unsteady Fluid Forces in Heat Exchanger Tube Bundles

open access: yes, 2011
Heat transfer is the main concern in designing shell and tube heat exchangers. Flowinduced vibration (FIV) is also a major concern while designing shell and tube heat exchangers. Fluidelastic instability (FEI), turbulence, periodic instability, and acoustic resonance are the FIV mechanisms that could cause to vibrations in heat exchanger tube bundles ...

Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Vortical Structure and Aerodynamics of Hawkmoth Hovering

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2006
A multi-block-and overset grid-based computational fluid dynamic (CFD) study is conducted for the unsteady flows about a realistic body-wing model and the force-generation in the flapping flight of hawkmoth hovering.

Acoustic Analysis of Square Array of Cylinders in Duct Using Unsteady Fluid Force.

open access: yesTRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series B, 1997
In this paper we describe the acoustic analysis of fluid flow in a duct with four cylinders. The sound field is considered to be related to the oscillating lift forces which act on the cylinders, which are experimentally measured. The Helmholtz acoustic equation associated with oscillating fluid force is applied to the flow past four circular cylinders.

Boundary Layer Meshing and Wall Functions Selection for Numerical Simulation of Solid–Liquid Two‐Phase Flow

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates the optimal near‐wall treatment schemes (first‐layer height and wall function type) for solid–liquid two‐phase CFD of suspended sediment, which are correlated with particle size and flow velocity. ABSTRACT Near‐wall treatment (boundary‐layer meshing and wall functions) is a major uncertainty in solid–liquid two‐phase CFD of ...

Design of HAWT Rotor for Non‐Uniform Inflow Conditions: A Theoretical and Experimental Approach for Shear Flow

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper aims to provide a robust design approach for HAWTs operating in shear flow. This study fills a critical research gap by integrating BEM and vortex theories for blade design in non‐homogeneous inflow conditions. The authors of the paper made an effort to develop and test an experimentally unsophisticated model of a turbine working in shear ...
