Numerical Investigations on Enhancement of Pool Boiling Heat Transfer on a Mixed Wettability Surface Employing Lattice Boltzmann Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a systematic numerical study of pool boiling heat transfer on a mixed wettability heated surface is done using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with a multiple relaxation time (MRT)-based collision operator. ...
Numerical Study of Pool Boiling Heat Transfer From Surface With Protrusions Using Lattice Boltzmann Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper reports our numerical studies on pool boiling heat transfer from a plane and with protruding surface using single component pseudo-potential phase change model of lattice Boltzmann method. The surface protrusions ...
Experimental Investigation of Buoyancy-Induced Convection in High-Porosity Open-Cell Aluminum Metal Foams Under Different Orientations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This investigation deals with buoyancy-induced convection of air in an open-cell aluminum foam under different orientations. Metal foam samples with a porosity of 93% and pore densities of 2, 4, 8, and 16 pores per cm (PPC) ...
Numerical and Experimental Investigation of a Volumetric Resistance Blower Performance and Its Optimization for Portable Computing Device Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we present our results on a relatively new kind of blower called Volumetric Resistance Blower (VRB) for cooling of portable computing platforms like laptop computers. The VRB performance was modeled numerically ...
