(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)An analytical model for describing the heat transfer from the wall of a capillary groove to the fluid in the groove has been developed. This model couples a one-dimensional conduction model in the wall to the surface heat ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)An experimental investigation, at a Reynolds number of 100,000, was conducted to determine the flow field and heat transfer characteristics of a model composed of three cylinders of different diameter. A wide range of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The control volume finite element method is applied to transient laminar free convection between vertical parallel heated plates. The results are compared with those obtained from the alternating direction implicit method ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)A transient heat and mass transfer model was developed to predict ceiling heat gain/loss through the attic space in residences and to accurately estimate savings in cooling and heating loads produced by the use of radiant ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1991)This dissertation details an experimental investigation of the influence of high mainstream turbulence on leading edge film cooling heat transfer. High mainstream turbulence was produced by a bar grid (Tu = 3.3-5.1%), a ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)This dissertation reports on the effects of two levels of increased ambient temperature on the performance of a tracking task and a variety of secondary mental tasks. Eighteen males, ages 18 - 29, were exposed to wet bulb ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1979)A finite element method is developed for the analysis of two dimensional, transient laminar convective heat transfer. The method is applied to three classes of problems over a range of flow and thermal conditions. The ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)Heat resistance times of 10 species of crustaceans representing 5 families and 65 fishes from 32 families were determined during June 1974 through September 1975 to estimate percentage survival in the discharge canal system ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)The influence of mainstream turbulence and unsteady wake on turbine blade surface heat transfer was studied. The experiments were performed with a five-blade linear cascade in a low speed wind tunnel facility. The wake and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Local heat transfer in an enclosed corotating disk with axial throughflow was investigated. The rotating cavity has two plane disks and a cylindrical rim (shroud). The ratio of the rim span to the disk outer radius is 0.4 ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The objective of the first experiment was to determine if thermal stress directly affects the endocrine regulation of ovulation. Hens were acutely heat stressed to limit the indirect effect of reduced feed consumption on ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)In this study, mixtures were made in the laboratory having different proportions of food components and are referred to as Model Foods. They were employed in this study to minimize variation in samples due to factors other ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)The cooling performance of two dimensional channel flow simulating channels of electronic components has been studied numerically. A channel is formed with the substrates on which the heat sources are surface-mounted ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1974)A general shaped one-dimensional heat conducting body with side convection in a condition of steady state is formulated numerically, in dimensionless form, by dividing the body into elements and considering an energy balance ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Due to the low thermal conductivity and high emissivity of UO2, it has been suggested that radiative heat transfer may play a significant role in the transport of heat through the pores of UO2 used as a nuclear fuel. This ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)The heat transfer resulting from the impingement of a heated circular jet upon a cylinder was experimentally studied. Velocity and temperature profiles of the impinging jets compared favorably with existing theoretical ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)We have performed two intimately related studies of interfacial heat transfer. The first is a study of the Kapitza conductance for one-dimensional systems; the second is a study of three-dimensional interfacial three-phonon ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)The maximum temperature difference allowed inside a nickel-hydrogen battery to avoid water relocation was calculated by a graphical method using the vapor pressure versus temperature correlation equation for water and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1979)The purpose of this study was to investigate the thermoregulatory mechanisms associated with exercise of long duration in a hot, humid environment. The specific problem was to describe the upper limit s of environmental ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)This work presents the results of an experimental investigation into the effects of variations in the channel aspect ratio and rib angle-of-attack, on the friction factor and local heat transfer in rectangular channels ...
