Coupled Heat Transfer Processes in Enclosed Horizontal Heat Generating Rod Bundles
(2018-03-24)In a nuclear fuel cask, the heat generating spent fuel rods are packed in a housing and the resulting bundle is placed inside a cask of thick outer shell made of materials like lead or concrete. The cask presents a wide ... -
A Design Concept of a Volumetric Solar Receiver for Supercritical CO2 Brayton Cycle
(2018-01-09)Recently, the supercritical carbon dioxide (s-CO2) Brayton cycle has been identified as a promising candidate for solar-thermal energy conversion due to its potentially high thermal efficiency (50%, for turbine inlet ... -

Hybrid Model for Micro-channel Heat Exchangers used in sCO2 Brayton Power Blocks
Studies have shown that Micro-channel Heat Exchangers (MCHEs) commonly referred to as Printed Circuit Heat Exchangers (PCHEs) are suitable candidates for recuperators and gas coolers used in sCO2 power blocks. CFD and 1-d ... -
Numerical Study Of Heat Transfer From Pin Fin Heat Sink Using Steady And Pulsated Impinging Jets
(2008-01-25)The work reported in this thesis is an attempt to enhance heat transfer in electronic devices with the use of impinging air jets on pin-finned heat sinks. The cooling per-formance of electronic devices has attracted increased ... -
Numerical Study Of Laminar And Turbulent Mixed Convection In Enclosures With Heat Generating Components
(2010-07-29)The problem of laminar and turbulent conjugate mixed convection flow and heat transfer in shallow enclosures with a series of block-like heat generating components is studied numerically for a Reynolds number range of zero ... -
Role Of Mixed Convection In Cooling Of Electronics
(2011-03-15)Cooling of electronic components is one of the most important issues concerned in the electronic industry for design of equipment. Maintaining the temperature of an electronic device within its safe operating temperature ... -
Turbulent Free Convection Over Horizontal Surfaces
This thesis deals with turbulent free convection in a horizontal fluid layer above a heated surface. The work can be roughly divided into two parts. In the &st part a model is proposed for the near wall dynamics in ...
