Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvective Heat Transport in an Unconfined Aquifer Induced by the Field Injection of an Open-Loop Groundwater Heat PumpStefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaProblem statement: The increasing diffusion of low-enthalpy geothermal open-loop Groundwater Heat Pumps (GWHP) providing buildings air conditioning requires a careful assessment of the overall effects on groundwater system, especially in the urban areas. The impact on the groundwater temperature in the surrounding area of the re-injection well is directly linked to the aquifer properties. Physical processes affecting heat transport within … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,970 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLaboratory Scale of Liquid Coal Fuel Combustion Process and Exhaust Gas FormationKartika Kus Hendratna, Osami Nishida, Hirotsugu Fujita, Wataru HaranoProblem statement: Much research of coal has been already undertaken to ascertain the possibilities of coal being used as substitute for heavy fuel oil in the transportation sector. The effects of using coal as transportation fuel to the environment must also be considered. This study will review several aspects of the coal oil combustion process including combustion behavior, flame stability, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,761 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Internal Flow Patterns on Heat transfer Performance of a Closed-end Oscillating Heat Pipe at Vertical PositionS. Rittidech, L. Yodluk, K. SongsornThis article describes the effects of varying bond numbers (Bo) and aspect ratios (Le/d) on flow pattern of a close-end oscillating heat-pipe (CEOHP). The CEOHPs used employed a glass tube with inside diameter of 3 mm. The length of evaporator of 100 and 150 mm (the lengths of evaporator adiabatic and condenser section were equal) were employed with 10 turns. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,062 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Geometry and Dimensionless Parameters on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Closed–end Oscillating Heat-pipe at Vertical PositionS. Rittidech, K. PhalasinThis heat transfer characteristics of a closed-end oscillating heat-pipe (CEOHP) depend on a number of parameters. They are the number of turns, inner diameter of the tube, aspect ratio and the dimensionless parameters of heat transfer. The CEOHPs used to employ a copper tube with inner diameter of 0.66, 1.09 and 2.03 mm. The lengths of the evaporator, adiabatic and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 6,642 accessesView PDF Cite
