Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleVariable Viscosity, Chemical Reaction and Thermal Stratification Effects on Mixed Convection Heat and Mass Transfer along a Semi-Infinite Vertical PlateP. Geetha, M.B.K. MoorthyProblem statement: In this research the researchers studied and made an analysis to the heat and mass transfer characteristics in a viscous fluid over a semi-infinite vertical porous plate by taking into account the variable viscosity, chemical reaction and thermal stratification effects. Approach: The governing partial differential equations were transformed into a set of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsViscous Dissipation Effect on Steady free Convection and Mass Transfer Flow past a Semi-Infinite Flat PlatePalanisamy Geetha, Muthamperumal Bhavathikannu Krishna MoorthyProblem statement: A steady two-dimensional free convection and mass transfer flow past a continuously moving semi-infinite flat plate is studied theoretically, by taking into account the viscous dissipation effect. Approach: The governing equations are transformed into a set of simultaneous ordinary differential equation by using suitable similarity transformations. The coupled differential equations are integrated using the Runge-Kutta Gill method together … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 6,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSoret and Dufour Effects on Natural Convection Flow Past a Vertical Surface in a Porous Medium with Variable Surface TemperatureHassan A.M. El-ArabawyProblem statement: In this research the researchers studied and made an analysis to the heat and mass transfer characteristics of natural convection about a vertical surface embedded in a saturated porous medium with surface temperature distribution proportional to xλ by taking into account the diffusion-thermo (Dufour) and thermal-diffusion (Soret) effects. Approach: The governing partial differential equations were transformed into a … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDouble Diffusive Convection Heat and Moisture Transfer Inside a Planted Roof Building Under Hot-Humid Climate: Case of Lomé City in West AfricaHodo-Abalo Samah, Magolmèèna Banna, Belkacem ZeghmatiPlanted roofs have been investigated as a passive cooling technology for energy efficiency purposes in buildings. More quantitative data on this topic are required to solve a lack of information for many specific regions. This study is focused on a numerical investigation of the thermal comfort inside a green roof rectangular ventilated cavity in a hot and humid climate like … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2022 · 6,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasurement of Gas-Phase Mass Transfer Coefficients in a Humidification Column through Random PackingMasoud Khorasani, Morteza Zivdar, Farshad Fashchi Tabrizi et al.Packed columns are an important part of the broad selection of mass and heat transfer equipment. Nowadays, the use of packed columns is increasing, which is because of its lower pressure drop, higher capacity and higher mass transfer in comparison to tray columns. The experiential tests and the hypothetical analysis display that the chemical dehumidification of air by hygroscopic salt … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2019 · 8,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NOVEL PRESSURIZED ZONAL MODEL USING THE MOMENTUM EQUATIONYao Yu, Ahmed Cherif MegriZonal models combine the simplicity of single and multi-zone models with the comprehensiveness of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and thus become a better substitute to predict detailed thermal and airflow behaviors in building. Based on a geometric partitioning of a room into a number of subzones, these models give more accurate and detailed results than the single or multi-zone … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2014 · 8,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Parametric Optimization of an Organic Rankine Cycle Powered by Solar EnergyFrancesco Calise, Claudio Capuozzo, Laura VanoliThis study presents the simulation and performance analysis of a regenerative and superheated Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC). To this scope, anew simulation model has been developed. The model is based on zero-dimensional energy and mass balances for all the components of the system. Shell and tube heat expanders with single shell and double tube pass have been chosen. Pump and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 15 May 2013 · 7,684 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical and Experimental Studies on the Thermal Efficiency of the Double-Pass Solar Air Collector with Finned AbsorberAhmad Fudholi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Hafidz Ruslan et al.Problem statement: The design of suitable air collectors is one of the most important factors controlling the economics of the solar drying. Air type collectors have two inherent disadvantages: Low thermal capacity of air and low absorber to air heat transfer coefficient. Different modifications are suggested and applied to improve the heat transfer coefficient between the absorber plate and air. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 7,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeat-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
