Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Clothing Insulation for Thermal Comfort: A Numerical Study using Bio-Heat Transfer ModelKabita Luitel, Dil Bahadur Gurung, Harihar Khanal, Kedar Nath UpretyClothing plays a major role in protecting the human body from cold and hot environment by working as an insulator. The physical factors such as conduction, convection, radiation, evaporation and the physiological factors such as blood flow and metabolism within the body together with clothing system help to maintain human thermal comfort and the human thermoregulatory system. On the other … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2020 · 8,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmart Retrofit Solutions of Buildings toward a Low Carbon WorldErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceIn this short communication, energy-efficient, eco-friendly and low-cost solutions for existing buildings are considered in a holistic manner toward low/zero carbon building concept of near future. Buildings are still responsible for about 40% of total primary energy consumption in the world, hence decisive measures need to be taken promptly due to growing significance of environmental issues driven by fossil fuel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Aug 2018 · 7,169 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConvective Heat Transfer and Thermal Performance in a Circular Tube Heat Exchanger Inserted with U-Shaped BaffleAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiNumerical investigations on flow structure and heat transfer characteristic in a heat exchanger tube fitted with U-shaped baffle are presented. The U-shaped baffle is created from the concepts of orifice and inclined baffle. The influences of the baffle height (b/D = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25) and flow attack angle (α = 20°, 30° and 45°) of the U-shaped … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2017 · 6,951 accessesView PDFCite

The inclined wavy surface is designed with the main the aim to help the installation, production and maintenance when using the inclined wavy surface in the heat exchanger. The finite volume method with SIMPLE algorithm is selected to solve the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 25 May 2017 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Investigation on Performance Improvement in Tube Inserted with Delta Winglets on Discrete Right-Angled Triangular PlatesAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiNumerical investigations on flow topology and heat transfer behavior in a round tube heat exchanger inserted with Delta Winglets (DW) on Discrete Right-angled Triangular Plates (DRTP) are performed. The influences of DW heights; b/D or BR = 0.05-0.25 and flow directions; DW with V-Downstream (DWVD) and DW with V-Upstream (DWVU), are studied for turbulent flow; Re = 3000-10,000. The finite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2017 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSomething about the Balancing of Thermal MotorsRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Bilal Akash et al.Internal combustion engines in line (regardless of whether the work in four-stroke engines and two-stroke engines Otto cycle engines, diesel and Lenoir) are, in general, the most used. Their problem of balancing is extremely important for their operation is correct. There are two possible types of balancing: Static and dynamic balance. The total static to make sure that the sum … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2017 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Investigation on Turbulent Forced Convection in Heating Channel Inserted with Discrete V-Shaped BafflesAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiThe numerical examinations on flow visualization, heat transfer characteristic and performance improvement in a square duct inserted with discrete V-shaped baffles (DVB) are reported. The DVB is designed to reduce the pressure loss when compared with the V-shaped baffle. The influences of the flow blockage ratios (b/H, BR = 0.05-0.20), V-tip directions (V-Downstream and V-Upstream) are investigated for Reynolds number, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2016 · 7,116 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural Dynamics of the Distribution Mechanism with Rocking Tappet with RollFlorian Ion T. Petrescu, John Kaiser Calautit, Dragan MarinkovicIn this study, the authors present a new method to dynamically synthesize a mechanism with rotary cam and rotated tappet with roll, used with priority at the distribution mechanisms from the heat engines with internal combustion. This type of distribution can improve the changes of gases and may decrease significantly the level of vibration, noises and emissions. As long as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2015 · 9,290 accessesView PDFCite
