A stirred-tank reactor was built with the objective of rapid and accurate temperature control in the reaction vessel. A first-principles heat transfer model was developed for the jacketed batch system, with the jacket inlet temperature used to control the ...
This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of two-phase flow and flow boiling across horizontal tube bundles. The review covers studies related to the dynamic aspects of two-phase flow on the shell side of staggered and in-line tube bundles for upward, ...
The complexities of two-phase flow and evaporation on a tube bundle present important problems in the design of heat exchangers and the understanding of the physical phenomena taking place. The development of structured surfaces to enhance boiling heat tra ...
A concrete slab assembling system comprising: -a reinforced concrete slab (1); -a supporting column (2); -a supported column (3), having a bottom-end with a reference outer diameter thereof; -an interface adaptor (10) for placement between the supported co ...
Horizontal falling film evaporators have the potential of displacing flooded evaporators in industry, due to advantages such as lower required refrigerant charge and lower pressure drop. However, there is a need to improve the understanding of falling film ...
The complexities of two-phase flow and falling-film evaporation on a tube bundle present important challenges in the design of heat exchangers and the understanding of the physical phenomena taking place. The development of structured surfaces to enhance n ...
Exciton-polariton condensation can be regarded as a self-organization phenomenon, where phase ordering is established among particles in the system. In such condensed systems, further ordering can occur in the particle density distribution, under particula ...
A heat transfer assembly for transferring heat from a heat generating device (5) to a circulating fluid, said heat transfer assembly comprising - an evaporator device (3) having at least one microchannel (1) formed therein, in thermally conductive contact ...
Permeable reactive barriers employing iron as a reactive surface have received extensive attention. A remaining issue, however, relates to their longevity. As an integral part of a long-term column study conducted to examine the influence of inorganic coso ...
We study the jamming of bead assemblies placed in a cylindrical container whose bottom is pierced with a circular hole. Their jamming behavior is quantified here by the mean critical diameter, that is the diameter of the hole for which the jamming probabil ...
