Recently, engineers and researchers reconsider honeycomb sandwich structures due to their vast application in industries and aviation arenas. In this study, a new honeycomb sandwich material was developed and tested. The purpose of the present work is to investigate numerically and experimentally with a comparative study on the effects of heat transfer on design parameters and geometry for different types of exotic honeycomb structures taking in account radiation within the cell and conduction in the cell walls. The numerical solution for temperature profiles for different types of exotic honeycomb structures and solid disk are performed in order to inspect the variation of heat transfer. The modeling results show a good agreement with the experimental results. The present work demonstrates that the temperature profile for reentrant is the highest one compared to splined and stiffened which reaches around 10% at temperature of the front surface Tin = 100 °C. It was found that the rib length enhances significantly heat transfer. Results showed also that stiffened honeycomb has a good insulation and metallic honeycomb core structure has a good thermal insulation characteristic for the highest instantaneous temperature, whereas reentrant honeycomb has a good heat transmission.

Nanoscience application plays a major role in heat transfer related problems. A nanofluid is basically a suspension of fine sized nanomaterials in base fluids like water, Therminol VP-1, ethylene glycol, and other heat transfer fluids. This paper evaluates the possible application of nanofluid in parabolic shaped concentrating solar collector using both experimental and CFD analysis. Different types of nanomaterials used are SiO2and CuO of 20 nm average size. Nanofluids of SiO2-H2O (DI) and CuO-H2O (DI) of 0.01% volume concentration are used. Flow rates of 40 LPH and 80 LPH are used. ANSYS FLUENT 14.5 is used for carrying out CFD investigation. 3D temperature distribution of absorber tube is obtained using numerical investigation and the result is compared with the experimental one. Improvement in efficiency of collector of about 6.68% and 7.64% is obtained using 0.01% vol. conc. SiO2-H2O (DI) nanofluid and 0.01% vol. conc. CuO-H2O (DI) nanofluid, respectively, as compared to H2O (DI) at 40 LPH while at 80 LPH improvement in efficiency of collector of about 7.15% and 8.42% is obtained using 0.01% vol. conc. SiO2-H2O (DI) nanofluid and 0.01% vol. conc. CuO-H2O (DI) nanofluid, respectively, as compared to H2O (DI). Both experimental and CFD temperature results are in good agreement.

Cooling techniques play a key role in improving efficiency and power output of modern gas turbines. The conjugate technique of film and impingement cooling schemes is considered in this study. The Multi-Stage Cooling Scheme (MSCS) involves coolant passing from inside to outside turbine blade through two stages. The first stage; the coolant passes through first hole to internal gap where the impinging jet cools the external layer of the blade. Finally, the coolant passes through the internal gap to the second hole which has specific designed geometry for external film cooling. The effect of design parameters, such as, offset distance between two-stage holes, gap height, and inclination angle of the first hole, on upstream conjugate heat transfer rate and downstream film cooling effectiveness performance are investigated computationally. An Inconel 617 alloy with variable properties is selected for the solid material. The conjugate heat transfer and film cooling characteristics of MSCS are analyzed across blowing ratios of Br = 1 and 2 for density ratio, 2. This study presents upstream wall temperature distributions due to conjugate heat transfer for different gap design parameters. The maximum film cooling effectiveness with upstream conjugate heat transfer is less than adiabatic film cooling effectiveness by 24–34%. However, the full coverage of cooling effectiveness in spanwise direction can be obtained using internal cooling with conjugate heat transfer, whereas adiabatic film cooling effectiveness has narrow distribution.

The macroscopic mechanical behavior of open-porous cellular materials is dictated by the geometric and material properties of their microscopic cell walls. The overall compressive response of such materials is divided into three regimes, namely, the linear elastic, plateau and densification. In this paper, a constitutive model is presented, which captures not only the linear elastic regime and the subsequent pore-collapse, but is also shown to be capable of capturing the hardening upon the densification of the network. Here, the network is considered to be made up of idealized square-shaped cells, whose cell walls undergo bending and buckling under compression. Depending on the choice of damage criterion, viz. elastic buckling or irreversible bending, the cell walls collapse. These collapsed cells are then assumed to behave as nonlinear springs, acting as a foundation to the elastic network of active open cells. To this end, the network is decomposed into an active network and a collapsed one. The compressive strain at the onset of densification is then shown to be quantified by the point of intersection of the two network stress-strain curves. A parameter sensitivity analysis is presented to demonstrate the range of different material characteristics that the model is capable of capturing. The proposed constitutive model is further validated against two different types of nanoporous materials and shows good agreement.

Gears are commonly used in transmission systems to adjust velocity and torque. An integral gear or an interference fit could be used in a gearbox. Integral gears are mostly preferred as driving gear for a compact design to reduce the weight of the system. Interference fit makes the replacement of damaged gear possible and re-use of the shaft compared to the integral shaft. However, internal pressure occurs between mating surfaces of the components mated. This internal pressure affects the stress distribution at the root and bottom land of the gear. In this case, gear parameters should be re-considered to assure gear life while reducing the size of the gear. In this study, interference fitted gear-shaft assembly was examined numerically. The effects of rim thickness, profile shifting, module and fit tolerance on bending stress occurring at the root of the gear were investigated to optimize gear design parameters. Finite element models were in good agreement with analytical solutions. Results showed that the rim thickness of the gear is the main parameter in terms of tangential stress occurring at the bottom land of the gear. Positive profile shifting reduces the tangential stress while the pitch diameter of the gear remains constant. Also, lower tolerance class could be selected to moderate stress for small rim thickness.

In this article, we have first presented a metasurface design methodology by coupling the acoustic cavity to the coiled channel. The geometrical design parameters in this structure are subsequently studied both analytically and numerically to identify a road map for silencer design. Next, upon tuning the design parameters, we have introduced an air-permeable noise barrier capable of sound silencing in the ultrawide band of the frequency. It is has been shown that the presented metasurface can achieve +10 dB sound transmission loss from 170 Hz to 1330 Hz (≈3 octaves). Furthermore, we have numerically studied the ventilation and heat transfer performance of the designed metasurface. Enabling noise mitigation by leveraging the proposed metasurface opens up new possibilities ranging from residential and office noise reduction to enabling ultralow noise fan, propellers, and machinery.

The influence of utilizing different nanofluids types on the liquid cold plate (LCP) is numerically investigated. The thermal and fluid flow performance of LCP is examined by using pure ethylene glycol (EG), Al2O3-EG and CuO-EG. The volume fraction of the nanoparticle for both nanofluid is 2%. The finite volume method (FVM) has been used to solved 3-D steady state, laminar flow and heat transfer governing equations. The presented results indicate that Al2O3-EG able to provide the lowest surface temperature of the heater block followed by CuO-EG and EG, respectively. It is also found that the pressure drop and friction factor are higher for Al2O3-EG and CuO-EG compared to the pure EG.

Anti human plasminogen sera of the rabbit precipitate human plasma in the agar gel diffusion test by means of intra-basin absorption with plasminogenfree human plasma with three different types: type I is represented by one strong precipitation line, type II by two lines, a big one and a small one, and type III by three slight but distinct lines. The following frequencies of the different types have been observed in a sample of 516 human plasmas: type I 65%, type II 33% and type III 2%. Suppose the types are phenotypical groups of a diallelic system where the types I and III represent the homozygous genotypes and the type II the heterozygous the estimated gene frequencies are in good agreement with the expected values. There is also a good agreement of the distribution of plasminogen groups determined by electrofocussing from RAUM et al. and HOBART. The plasminogen groups possibly may have also a biological meaning because the plasmas of type III always have a lesser fibrinolytic activity than the plasmas of the other types.

Heat transfer coefficients were measured for a solution of surfactant drag-reducing additive in the entrance region of a uniformly heated horizontal cylindrical pipe with Reynolds numbers from 25,000 to 140,000 and temperatures from 30to70°C. In the absence of circumferential buoyancy effects, the measured Nusselt numbers were found to be in good agreement with theoretical results for laminar flow. Buoyancy effects, manifested as substantially higher Nusselt numbers, were seen in experiments carried out at high heat flux.
