Finite ballooning angle effects on ion temperature gradient driven mode in gyrokinetic flux tube simulations

This paper presents effects of finite ballooning angles on linear ion temperature gradient (ITG) driven mode and associated heat and momentum flux in Gyrokinetic flux tube simulation GENE. It is found that zero ballooning angle is not always the one at whi ...

Interactions Between Parallel Minichannels During Flow Boiling of R134A

This work focuses on the study of flow boiling of R134a in 0.54 mm square parallel minichannels, with a particular focus on the transient pressure drop of individual channels and their interaction. The individual pressure drop in each passage was analyzed ...

Experimental study on flow boiling heat transfer of multiport tubes with R245fa and R1234ze(E)

John Richard Thome, Bruno Agostini, Farzad Vakili Farahani

The upward flow boiling experiments were carried out in a flat aluminum extruded multiport tube, which is composed of 7 parallel rectangular channels (1.1 mm × 2.1 mm) with hydraulic diameter of 1.4 mm. Two refrigerants, R245fa and R1234ze, the latter a re ...

Pressure drop data and prediction method for enhanced external boiling tube bundles with R-134a and R-236fa

John Richard Thome, Eugene van Rooyen

The pressure drops of external flow over enhanced tube bundles were experimentally obtained at both adiabatic and diabatic conditions using R-134a and R-236fa as test fluids. The tests were carried out at saturation temperatures of 5 and 15 degrees C, mass ...

Variability of Rainfall in a Semi-Arid Catchment in Burkina Faso

Christine Wiedmann

The climate in the Sahel is marked by the spatial and temporal variability of rainfall. As the agriculture is mainly rainfed in Burkina Faso, the information about rainfall is crucial to help the farmers in their decisions. A network of wireless sensorscop ...

Flow Boiling Characteristics for R1234ze(E) in 1.0 and 2.2 mm Circular Channels

John Richard Thome, Cristiano Bigonha Tibiriça

Experimental flow boiling heat transfer results are presented for horizontal 1.0 and 2.2 mm I. D. (internal diameter) stainless steel tubes for tests with R1234ze(E), a new refrigerant developed as a substitute for R134a with a much lower global warming po ...

Flow pattern maps for convective boiling of CO2 and R410A in a horizontal smooth tube: Experiments and new correlations analyzing the effect of the reduced pressure

John Richard Thome

In this work flow visualizations and measurements are made and analyzed to identify flow regime transitions, slug-to-intermittent, intermittent-to-annular and the dry-out inception, during the flow boiling of CO2 in a horizontal smooth tube of 6.00 mm of i ...

Benchmark Of Fluid And Kinetic Simulations Of Type Iii Elming H-Mode On Tcv

Barbora Bruant Gulejová, Richard Pitts

Although the most complex currently available fluid-neutral Monte-Carlo plasma boundary code package, SOLPS, has been a major player in the ITER divertor design, it has not yet been systematically used for the study of kinetic phenomena such as ELM transie ...
