Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHeat-Modeling of Microwave Assisted Epoxidation of Palm Acid OilN. Saifuddin, L. Wei Zhan, K. Xin NingProblem statement: While microwave chemistry could well be the most convenient, rapid and energy-saving way to initiate a chemical reaction, the issues of thermal versus microwave specific effect remain unaddressed. Approach: A three-dimensional Finite Element Model (FEM) was developed to predict temperature profile during the enzymatic epoxidation of palm acid oil using microwave heating. Three-dimensional partial differential equations are formulated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Heat or Heat-Xylose Processing on Nitrogen Fractions and in Situ/In Vitro Ruminal and Post-Ruminal Protein Disappearance of Guar MealHossein Jahani-Azizabadi, Mohsen Danesh Mesgaran, Ali Reza Vakili et al.Problem statement: Guar meal is a by-product consisting of hull and germ and is mostly used as a protein source in poultry and ruminant rations. The aim was to determine the effect of heat or heat-xylose processing on nitrogen fractions, in situ ruminal degradation parameters and in situ/in vitro ruminal and post-ruminal disappearance of guar meal. Approach: Samples were intact … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 8,158 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Length Ratios on Heat Transfer Characteristics of Closed-Loop Oscillating Heat Pipe with Non-Uniform DiameterP. Sakulchangsatjatai, P. Pathike, P. TerdtoonProblem statement: Closed-loop oscillating heat pipe is a high performance heat exchanger especially as this heat exchanger has one direction flow of working fluid inside tube. Approach: This research studies the effect of length ratios on heat transfer characteristic of Closed Loop Oscillating Heat Pipe with Non-Uniform Diameter (CLOHP/NUD). The 2.03 and 1.06 mm inner diameter of capillary tube were … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,682 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMathematical Model of the Optimum Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger for a Condenser of Vapor-Compression Refrigeration CycleP. Yeunyongkul, P. Sakulchangsatjatai, P. TerdtoonProblem statement: This study theoretically investigated applying heat pipe as a heat exchanger in the condenser of vapor compression refrigeration system for sustainable well-being. Split-type air conditioner for residential propose was considered. To reduce pressure drop and recover heat from the condensing process of the refrigeration cycle, this investigation tried to use Closed Loop Oscillating Heat Pipe (CLOHP) instead of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,637 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstablishment, Verification and Application of a Correlation to Predict the Maximum Heat Flux of a Horizontal Closed-Loop Pulsating Heat PipeNiti Kammuang-Lue, Teerasak Hudakorn, Pradit TerdtoonProblem statement: In heat pipe design, it was very important to be sure that the desired heat pipe would not operate in the MHF state. In the case of a vertical CLPHP, the MHF state and maximum heat flux could be predicted by using the correlation, while, in the case of a horizontal CLPHP, there had been no study presented … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,431 accessesView PDFCite
