Abstract: This paper presents a study of three-dimensional laminar flow in a rotating multiplepass channel connected with 180-deg sharp bends. Fluid-flow fields are calculated for the entire domain via ...

Abstract: The effects of lateral-flow ejection (0<ε<1.0), pin shapes (square, diamond, and circular), and flow Reynolds number (6000<Re<40,000) on the endwall heat transfer and pressure drop for ...

Abstract: The effect of slit ribs on heat transfer and friction in a rectangular channel is investigated experimentally. The slit ribs are arranged in-line on two opposite walls of the channel. Three ...

Abstract: Heat transfer and friction characteristics in a rectangular channel with perforated ribs arranged in-line on two opposite walls are investigated experimentally. Five perforated rib open-area ratios ...

Abstract: This paper aims to analyze the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) of the direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) in order to provide a reference for the design of DMFC. The slow kinetics of methanol ...
