Bubble Dynamics for Nucleate Pool Boiling of Electrolyte Solutions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bubble dynamics is the most important subphenomenon, which basically affects the nucleate pool boiling heat transfer coefficient. Previous investigations state that the effect of physical properties ...
Prioritizing Construction Activities: Addressing the Flaws of Schedule-Based Indexes
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Research on prioritizing construction activities that are critical to the timely completion of projects rests on a range of indexes that attempt to identify the critical path and capture uncertainty in the duration of ...
No Scheduling Problem but Rather a Rescheduling Problem: Measuring Robustness of Schedule Network in Construction Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The available slack-based methods for measuring the robustness of schedule networks do not pay sufficient attention to the structural characteristics of such networks nor do they provide a comparison point for measuring ...
Evaporating Liquid Film Flow in the Presence of Micro Encapsulated Phase Change Materials: A Numerical Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper numerically investigates the heat transfer characteristics of a mesoscale liquid film slurry flow containing microencapsulated phase change material (MEPCM) in the presence of evaporation. The twophase evaporating ...
A Mesoscale Electrohydrodynamic Driven Two Phase Flow Heat Transport Device in Circular Geometry and In Tube Boiling Heat Transfer Coefficient Under Low Mass Flux
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Meso and microscale twophase flow heat transport involves devices that are used to remove heat from small surface areas by circulating a working fluid through the heated space and causing phase change from liquid to vapor. ...
Experimental Study of Linear and Radial Two Phase Heat Transport Devices Driven by Electrohydrodynamic Conduction Pumping
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Heat pipes are well known as simple and effective heat transport devices, utilizing twophase flow and the capillary phenomenon to remove heat. However, the generation of capillary pressure requires a wicking structure and ...
Electrohydrodynamic Conduction Driven Single and Two Phase Flow in Microchannels With Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Microchannels have wellknown applications in cooling because of their ability to handle large quantities of heat from small areas. Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) conduction pumping at the microscale has previously been demonstrated ...
Two-Stage Metaheuristic Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming Approach to Extract Optimum Hedging Rules for Multireservoir Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Hedging policy is an applicable strategy for water resources systems with storage reservoirs to reduce the damage resulting from extended droughts. Optimizing the operation of parallel and cascade multireservoir systems ...
Forecasting Project Duration in the Face of Disruptive Events: A Resource-Based Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Disruptive events are the main source of delays in projects. A key task for construction managers is to revise the project schedule plan based on time delays caused by these events. Consequently, project management research ...
Parameter Optimization and Experimental Study on Effect of Rounding Off Edge Radius on Heat and Mass Transfer Between Gas Layers and Thermal Performance of Vortex Tube
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Since 1933, the vortex tube (VT) has been used as a device for cooling, heating, and creating separation process (particles, hydrocarbons, energy, etc.). The VT efficiency is very relevant to the characteristics of the ...
