Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of an Office With Seated Persons and a Double-Duct Solar Roof Chimney for Passive Ventilation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This investigation reports a detailed computational study of heat transfer and airflow in an office with seated persons with a double-duct vertical roof solar chimney (SC). The computational model was validated with ...
Thermal Performance and Water Production in a Solar Still With an Energy Storage Material Under Different Concentrations of Salt
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The current work reports a numerical investigation of the water produced and thermal performance of a solar still (SS). Using a SS for desalination is a proposal for low-income remote communities needing potable water. The ...
The Effect of Surface Thermal Radiation on Heat Transfer in a Ventilated Cavity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, experimental and numerical results were obtained to analyze the effect of surface thermal radiation on heat transfer by mixed convection in a ventilated cavity. Experimental temperature profiles were obtained ...
Surface Wind Regionalization in Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Daily wind variability in the Comunidad Foral de Navarra in northern Spain was studied using wind observations at 35 locations to derive subregions with homogeneous temporal variability. Two different methodologies based ...
