Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThermal Energy Loss in the Steam Valves and its EffectsGalip Temir, Durriye BilgeIn this study, the effects of thermal losses in steam valves for flow have been analyzed. In a set of experiment built to achieve this, pressure and condensate values have been calculated in different temperatures for insulated and non-insulated cases in three different nominal diameter steam valves. The amount of energy lost from the valve surface in the natural convection … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 7,202 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThermal Energy Storage in the Ground of a Greenhouse by the Polypropylene Capillary Heat ExchangerM. Lazâar, S. Koôli, M. Hazami et al.The problem of temperature inversion is one of solar origin principal problems about which the cultures under shelters complain. Indeed, for the winter period, the temperature under greenhouse is very low at night and it is rather high during the day in summer. Consequently, the heating of the greenhouses is essential. In this work, we studied the advisability of using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,939 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleCritical Evaluation of Thermal Efficiency in Aerogel Glazing Systems for Energy-Saving ApplicationsErdem CuceAerogels as a thermal superinsulation material possess a unique combination of properties, most notably low densities, and exceptionally low thermal conductivities, stemming from the high-volume fraction of air incorporated within their structure. Aerogel glazing systems have emerged as a promising solution to enhance the thermal performance of building envelopes while maintaining daylighting. With the notable reductions in production cost in … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2026 · 2,932 accessesView PDFCite

This research will focus on the development of the high performance boost power converter to power up any laptop or notebook and design power management system of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 11 Sep 2016 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThermal Comfort Assessment-A Study Toward Workers’ Satisfaction in a Low Energy Office BuildingMohd Nafiz Shaharon, Juliana JalaludinProblem statement: The government of Malaysia has raised their concerns towards the issue of workers comfort and workspace quality in a Low Energy Office (LEO) building. New energy efficient building concepts and technologies require a revision of comfort standards, to create a suitable thermal condition in avoiding occupant dissatisfaction, adverse effect on their productivity and overall building performance. Approach: Assessment … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 16 May 2012 · 8,797 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn a Novel Closed-Form Analytical Solution for Unsteady Solidification: Theory and ApplicationGueber Elias Mendes Santos Júnior, Fernando S. Rocha, Ana Beatriz S. Silva et al.Numerical modeling of transient solidification under convective boundary conditions presents a significant challenge because accurately tracking the solid–liquid interface is essential for obtaining a stable solution. Although analytical solutions are generally straightforward to apply, the growing demand for energy storage driven by mismatches between supply and demand in renewable‑energy systems requires reliable predictive tools for Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 21 May 2026 · 1,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Activation Energies on Thermal Explosion in the Interior of the EarthAmos Oladele PopoolaProblem statement: Literatures have shown that thermal processes in the interior of the earth and the classical thermal explosion are analogous and that combustion processes are characterized by ignition and explosion. The heat released during the thermal explosion that occurs in the interior of the earth requires more attention. Approach: The study investigated the role of activation energies ratio in … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Rapid Thermal Annealing Towards the Performance of Screen-Printed Si Solar CellShahrul Anizan, Cheow Siu Leong, Khairymaza Lee Yusri et al.Problem statement: Solar cells are used to capture the photons which generate the energy. However the efficiency of the cells to turn the amount of photon to electricity needs to be high and so the cells enhancement is needed. This involved the whole process of the developing of the cells, thus annealing process is one of the important steps that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHeat-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 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
