Geometrical Evaluation of a Channel with Alternated Mounted Blocks under Mixed Convection Laminar Flows Using Constructal Design J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2020-02-17 F. B. Teixeira, M. V. Altnetter, G. Lorenzini, B. D. do A. Rodriguez, L. A. O. Rocha, L. A. Isoldi, E. D. dos Santos
AbstractThis work presents a numerical study of incompressible, laminar, two-dimensional, mixed convection flows in horizontal channels with two rectangular alternated blocks mounted in the surfaces. The influence of the geometry and positioning of the blocks on the heat transfer rate is evaluated using Constructal Design. The problem is subjected to two geometric constraints associated with the areas

Thermal Processes in Electronic Equipment at Uncertainty J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2020-02-17 A. G. Madera, P. I. Kandalov
AbstractAt present, electronic systems are thermally designed on the basis of the assumption that all the parameters and factors that determine the thermal processes are fully known and unambiguously determined, id est, that they are determinate. However, the practice of creation and operation of real electronic systems shows that the real values of determining parameters and factors, as well as the

Title Analytical Study of Conjugated Heat Transfer of a Microchannel Fluid Flow between Two Parallel Plates J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2020-02-17 A. S. Al-shyyab, F. H. Darwish, M. A. Al-Nimr, B. J. Alshaer
AbstractThe conjugated temperature distributions of a microchannel fluid flow between two semi-infinite parallel plates are obtained analytically. The variables separation and transformation techniques are implemented to introduce the degenerate hypergeometric differential equation, the solution of which is given in terms of Kummer’s functions. The eigenvalues of the corresponding transcendental characteristic

Convective Type Models of Industrial Processes in Column Apparatuses 1. Chemical Reactions J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2020-01-09 B. Chr. Boyadjiev, Chr. B. Boyadjiev
AbstractA new approach for modeling chemical processes in industrial column apparatuses is presented. An exact approach for solving the equations in the convective type models is used. The use of experimental data for the average concentration at the column end for a specific process and column makes it possible to find out model parameters related with radial non-uniformity of velocity. These parameters

Modeling of Flow Structure, Bubble Distribution, and Heat Transfer in Polydispersed Turbulent Bubbly Flow Using the Method of Delta Function Approximation J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2019-12-09 M. A. Pakhomov, V. I. Terekhov
The results of modeling of flow structure, air bubble distribution over the pipe cross section, and heat transfer in a vertical polydispersed gas-liquid flow are presented. Themathematical model is based on the Euler description with allowance for the back effect of bubbles on the averaged characteristics and turbulence of the carrier phase. The polydispersity of two-phase flow is described by the

Phase Equilibria and Mutual Diffusion in Liquid Lithium-Sodium Alloys J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2019-12-09 R. A. Khairulin, R. N. Abdullaev, S. V. Stankus
The shape of the liquid-liquid coexistence line in the phase diagram of a lithium-sodium system is determined using the gamma-ray attenuation technique. The measured coordinates of the critical point of the coexistence curve (critical temperature TC = 576.8 ± 1.0 K; critical composition XC= 35.9 ± 0.4 at. % Na) are in good agreement with the data in the literature. The critical exponent β for the coexistence

Characterization of Multi-Jet Cooling Using High-Speed Visualization and IR Thermography J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2019-12-09 A. D. Nazarov, N. V. Miskiv, A. S. Surtaev, V. S. Serdyukov
The paper presents the results of experimental study on characteristics of non-boiling multi-jet water cooling. Experimental data on the characteristics of droplet jets including the distribution of droplets sizes and their velocity, as well as liquid irrigation patterns on a transparent heating surface, were obtained using high-speed visualization. The surface temperature field of the thin-film ITO

Detection of Residual Solvent in Solvent-Extracted Unconventional Oil Ore Gangues J. Engin. Thermophys. (IF 1.163) Pub Date : 2019-12-09 X. Li, Z. Jia, J. Wang, H. Sui, L. He, O. A. Volodin
The solvent extraction technology is a promising method for recovery of unconventional oil resources because of its high efficiency, low energy consumption, and high compatibility. Solvent selection and solvent loss are the main limitations in terms of industrialization of the technology. To evaluate the solvent, efficient detection of the residual solvent content in the extracted-oil gangue is also
