Abstract: A radiation and free convection shield (RFS), when used with a thermal storage wall, can enhance the thermal performance of the storage wall and provide passive thermal control. In order to ...

Abstract: A model for uniform parallel flow over the surface of a rectangular source of heat on a conducting plate is used to demonstrate the use of analytic Green’s functions to formulate the conjugate ...

Abstract: Analytical solutions are presented for the temperature field that arises from the application of a source of heat on an adiabatic plate or board when the fluid is represented as a uniform ...

Abstract: Design and analysis of thrust restraint for a buried continuous pressure pipe is essentially a pipe–soil interaction (PSI) problem regardless of pipe materials and restraint methods. In practice, thrust block and restrained ...

Abstract: This paper deals with statistical and modeling uncertainty on the estimation of long-term extrapolated extreme responses in a monopile offshore wind turbine. The statistical uncertainty is addressed by studying the effect ...

Abstract: When estimating significant wave height and wave power, it is regularly assumed 4 for the spectral estimate factor. It means considering a narrowband wave spectrum. That approach is accurate enough when the spectral broadness ...

Abstract: Experiments were performed to measure the heat transfer coefficient on the surface of a square flush heat source mounted at the center of an FR-4 plate in a small horizontal enclosure. The ...

Abstract: The flow behavior and heat transfer due to free air jet impingement on pin fin heat sinks was experimentally studied. Flow velocities and tip clearance ratios were varied from 2to20m∕s and 0 ...

Abstract: An experimental, numerical, and theoretical investigation of the behavior of a gasassisted liquid droplet impacting on a solid surface is presented with the aim of determining the effects of a carrier gas on the droplet ...
