Closure to “Discussion of â€کAn Experimental Study on Heat Transfer Surface Area of Wavy Fin Heat Exchangers’ †(2014, ASME J. Therm. Sci. Eng. Appl., 6(3), p. 015501)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: of geometries were studied by using the air as working fluid. This paper presents a discussion on two recent pressure drop and heat transfer models introduced by Awad and Muzychka [3] and Asadi and Xie [4]....
An Experimental Study on Heat Transfer Surface Area of Wavy Fin Heat Exchangers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Effects of wavyfins surface area on thermalhydraulic performance of a heat exchanger have been observed. First, a new method to calculate the heat transfer area of wavyfin surfaces is introduced. The results show that the ...
Challenges in Validation of Computational Weld Mechanics Code to Compute Residual Stress and Distortion in Welds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Validation of a computational weld mechanics (CWM) code for a particular welding application requires an estimate of the difference between experimentally measured parameters and parameters computed by a computational ...
Slit Effectiveness Analysis on the Lift Fluctuation Caused by Low-Speed Laminar Flow over a Circular Cylinder
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Low-speed laminar flow over a slotted circular cylinder was numerically studied to investigate the slit effectiveness on the vortex shedding suppression and also determine the suppression mechanism physically. The base ...
New Approach in Designing a Kinetic Window Shading Using Optimization Methods
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the United States, commercial buildings consume 18% of the total primary energy, which is predicted to increase by 1.2% per year from 2006 to 2030 due to population and economic growth. Windows in commercial buildings ...
An Experimental Study of Optimum Angle of Air Swirler Vanes in Liquid Fuel Burners
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present work shows that how the angle of an air swirler vane affects the combustion characteristics of liquid fuels such as flame temperature, radiation heat flux, combustion efficiency, and pollutants' emission. It ...
An Integrated Computational Welding Mechanics With Direct Search Optimization for Mitigation of Distortion in an Aluminum Bar Using Side Heating
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Using a computational weld mechanics (CWM) framework for exploring a design space, a recent directsearch algorithm from Kolda, Lewis and Torczon is modified to use a leastsquare approximation to improve the method of ...
Three-Dimensional Analysis of Circular Tunnel Headings Using Broms and Bennermark’s Original Stability Number
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The stability of a tunnel face is described by the combined effects of surcharge load, self-weight of the soil, and internal supporting pressure. This combination can cause failure in either blowout or collapse. Since the ...
Dynamic Sensor Selection for Efficient Monitoring of Coupled Multidisciplinary Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Coupled multidisciplinary systems involve different disciplines/subsystems with feedback-coupled interactions, illustrating the complex interdependencies inherent in real-world engineering systems. Effective monitoring of ...
Development of an Improved Desiccant-Based Evaporative Cooling System for Gas Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The evaporative inlet cooling systems do not work well in humid areas. However, desiccant wheels can be used to dehumidify the air before passing it through the evaporative cooler. A previous ...
