It is frequently necessary to electrically heat gases; a convenient geometry is the familiar tube-in-shell heat exchanger, where the tube side is modified for electrical heater-rods, and the baffled shell side contains the flowing gas, as indicated in Fig. 1. However, this modification ... En savoir plus
Catalytic micro-combustor represents an exciting area of research for portable power generation. Extensive research is being currently conducted on the design of the reactor and catalyst selection [1]. However another critical element of the design will be a recuperator to minimize ...

Neste trabalho é analisado o comportamento dos perfis de temperatura e umidade e sua penetração em bobinas de papel submetidas a longos períodos de armazenagem. O modelo considera a transferência simultânea de calor e massa com o efeito Soret, mas sem o efeito Latour. O sistema é fechado ... En savoir plus
Design and manufacture of thrusters for producing very low thrust force in the range of milli or micro newtons using micronozzles has been actively developed in the last decade. The nature of propellant flow in such micronozzles differs from that of macro nozzles. In micronozzles, ... En savoir plus
Determination of the temperature in liquid foods may be derived by measurements or by modeling. However, the placement of thermocouple probes to record temperature in the container disturbs the flow patterns. For this purpose, Computational fluid-dynamics (CFD) offers a powerful tool for ...

The phenomenon of cavitation can severely affect the working of valves used to control liquid flow. Cavitation occurs when the pressure is reduced and the water evaporates, forming bubbles. When bubbles pass into an area of higher pressure, they condense and collapse, releasing a large ... En savoir plus
In the core of Chemical Engineering is the reactor design that includes most of all scientific disciplines. The reactors, in general, are treated ideally. Unfortunately, it is observed in the real world a very different behavior from that expected. Thus, to characterize nonideal ... En savoir plus
Plasma technology has potential applications in a wide range of areas, such as microwave reflectors/absorbers, material processing, sterilization and chemical neutralization. The knowledge about the fluid behavior in such systems has a central role, since the stability of the flow in the ... En savoir plus
Schistosoma mansoni parasites affect million people worldwide. The intensity of the infection can be evaluated by the number of eggs present in the stool of an infected individual. The application of the traditional methods has been regarded as impractical in developing areas and there ... En savoir plus
Magnetorheological Finishing (MRF) is one of the precision finishing processes in which magnetic field is used to drive abrading forces for Finishing 2D and complex 3D surfaces. In this paper, Ball End Magnetorheological Finishing (BEMRF) has been analyzed for fluid behaviors under the ... En savoir plus
