Evaluation of Thermal Performance of Conically Shaped Micro Helical Tubes Using Non-Newtonian Nanofluids–A Numerical Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nowadays, the cooling and heating of micro-thermal devices have received a growing interest. To improve the thermal management of these micro-thermal devices, various efforts are being made by the researchers. In the present ...
A Comparative Study on Thermal-Hydraulic Performance of Different Non-Newtonian Nanofluids Through an Elliptical Annulus
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical investigation on heat transfer and flow behavior for non-Newtonian nanofluids with different nanoparticles (Al2O3 and CuO) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) with water as a base fluid. The ...
Modeling of Free Surface in Steady-State Radial Seepage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The free surface occurs as one of the boundaries in all unconfined ground-water flow problems. Determination of the free surface has received considerable attention in the literature. For computing free surface, models ...
Hydraulic Loads on Bridges during Floods: Comparative Assessment Based on Code Provisions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Flood hazards are becoming increasingly prevalent in several countries due to multiple reasons including global climate change. Bridge failure statistics indicate that over the last couple of decades, flood-related issues ...
Improved Decision Model for Evaluating Risks in Construction Projects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The paper develops an innovative risk evaluation methodology to address the challenges of multicriteria decision-making problem of project evaluation and selection. The methodology considers the fuzzy analytic network ...
