Analysis of the Flow of Granular Materials through a Screw Conveyor
Screw conveyors are widely employed in industry for the bulk transport of particulate materials. Several studies have attempted to correlate the discharge rate with the rotation speed of the screw via experiments and ...
Stable isotope geochemistry of carbonatites: New insights into the petrogenesis and evolution
Carbonatites are carbonate-rich magmatic rocks that are commonly thought of having a mantle origin and are thus, of great interest to geologist for understanding the chemical evolution of the upper mantle. This thesis ...
Heat Transfer and Visualization Studies in the Evaporator of a Flat Loop Heat pipe
Heat pipes are extensively used in spacecraft thermal control and electronics cooling for transfer of heat from high heat flux zones to low heat flux zones. The major advantage of heat pipe is it can transfer high heat ...
Sound Radiation from Rectangular Panels with Rectangular Cut-out/s
This is largely an analytical investigation and the objective of this study is to compute
sound power radiated from rectangular panels that are placed in an infinite baffle (or a
rigid wall) and that have rectangular ...
The Role of Self-Recirculating Casing Treatment on Axial Compressor and Its Aeroelastic Behavior
The modern-day axial compressor stages in a gas turbine engine play a vital role in generating the high-pressure ratios by operating at the limits of their design. Aerodynamic instabilities such as rotating stall and surge ...
Analysis and Design of Organic Rankine Cycle based Power Plants
Solving the world’s energy crisis, and mitigating anthropogenic climate change, requires efficiently harnessing non-polluting renewable energy. Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) can be useful in this regard. ORC is Rankine cycle ...
Seasonal Isotopic Variability and Major Ion Chemistry of the Cauvery River Basin, Peninsular India
Surface water and groundwater interactions are inherently complex because they occur
across a range of spatial and temporal scales. This thesis envisages to improve our
understanding of surface water and groundwater in ...
Geochemical and isotopic study of the Lonar and Dhala impact craters and jarosites from Kutch, India as analogues to understand planetary surface processes
Impact cratering and aqueous alteration are two important processes that have modified the Earth’s surface over time and better understanding of these processes on Earth allow us to understand the surface evolution of other ...
Processing mediated polymorphism in PVDF-based dielectric polymers and their application
The ever-increasing demand in electronic devices, piezoelectric materials such as ceramics,
polymers and polymer ceramic composites with enhanced piezoelectric and dielectric properties
has become the focus of many ...
Effect of Sintering on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Air Plasma Sprayed 7 wt.% Y2O3 Stabilized ZrO2
Air plasma sprayed (APS) 7 wt.% Y2O3 stabilized ZrO2 (7YSZ) coating is conventionally used for thermal insulations (in form of thermal barrier coating, TBC) in various hotter sections of land-based gas turbine engines and ...
