Thermodynamic Optimization of Solar-Driven Refrigerators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the thermodynamic optimization of a class of refrigerators without work input, which are driven by heat transfer from a solar collector. The model consists of a finite-size ...
Thermodynamic Optimization of a Gas Turbine Power Plant With Pressure Drop Irreversibilities
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper we show that the thermodynamic performance of a gas turbine power plant can be optimized by adjusting the flow rate and the distribution of pressure losses along the flow path. ...
A Numerical Model to Predict the Thermal and Psychrometric Response of Electronic Packages
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper introduces a general computational model for electronic packages, e.g., cabinets that contain electronic equipment. A simplified physical model, which combines principles of classical ...
Erratum: “Optimally Staggered Finned Circular and Elliptic Tubes in Turbulent Forced Convection” [Journal of Heat Transfer, 2007, 129(5), pp. 674–678]
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The original paper reported a heat transfer gain of up to 80% of the optimized elliptical tubes arrangement with respect to the optimized circular one. In fact, the actual heat transfer gain ...
