Research ArticleOpen accessA New Design of Blade for Small Horizontal-Axis Wind Turbine with Low Wind Speed OperationParamet Pathike, Thanad Katpradit, Pradit Terdtoon, Phrut SakulchangsatjataiIn Thailand, the average wind speed throughout the country is comparatively low for normally-available wind turbine. Designing of a new blade suitable for applications in the average wind speed of 3-7 m sec-1 is, thus, a main objective of this study. High torque has to be obtained properly to generate electricity. In order to design and evaluate performance, our mechanical … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Aug 2013 · 8,063 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAn Investigation of Thermal Characteristics of a Sintered-Wick Heat Pipe with Double Heat SourcesNattawut Tharawadee, Pradit Terdtoon, Niti Kammuang-lueHeat pipes have been used extensively in the electronic industry for decades especially in laptop computers. For cost-effectiveness, a single heat pipe is designed to simultaneously transfer heat from both the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) inside the main board to the heat sink. This causes the efficiency of the heat pipe to change without … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 7,229 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessFlattening Effect on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Sintered-Wick Heat PipeWeeranut Intagun, Pradit Terdtoon, Phurt SakulchangsatjataiThe effect of pipe flattening on heat transfer characteristics and the internal phenomena of a sintered-wick heat pipe has been investigated by using three-dimensional Finite Element Method. The calculation domains were focused at three important regions, i.e., vapor core, wick and wall. The Cartesian coordinates and the three-dimensional tetrahedral elements were applied in this model. The selected total elements were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 4 Jul 2013 · 7,342 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEstablishment, 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 · 7,422 accessesView PDF Cite
