(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)A new kind of PVB-laminated glass is introduced as an energy-efficient building glass. Based on tests and calculations of the shading coefficients of flat glass, LOW-E coated glass and PVB-laminated glass with different ...
-
(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, 1976)Experimental work on the nucleate pool boiling of propanol-2 at a pressure -12.25 psig has been conducted. The locations of the bubble nucleation sites, the site density, and the nucleation frequency were studied. These ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)An experimental apparatus, based on the Burnett mixing experiments, was designed and constructed for measuring the cross second virial coefficient (B12). In this isothermal experiment, two pure fluids are fed to separate ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Spray pyrolysis for ceramic powder preparation was studied, theoretically and experimentally. The forming mechanism for derived particles using air or argon as carrier was established based on the experimental results ...
-
(2014-08-10)Controlling infrastructure temperature, especially flexible pavement, has attracted attention in both industrial and academic societies because: 1) material properties of asphalt, and corresponding structural responses and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)Equation of state calculations are used by engineers in all phases of chemical process design and control. New processes often are designed to operate under conditions for which insufficient experimental data exist, and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)A Burnett apparatus was used to obtain accurate P-(rho)-T data of water - natural gas systems over a pressure range of 5 to 2450 psia. Experimental data were obtained for three wet, sweet natural gas mixtures containing ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1991)The purpose of the study was to evaluate the thermal performance of insulated opaque building envelopes when the order of envelope insulating layers was altered. The study emphasized the effect on cooling load. Three ...
-
(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, 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, 1987)Representation of thermodynamic properties is needed to design chemical processes. In this work, a theoretically based equation of state is formulated to represent the PVT behavior of pure fluids. The new equation of state ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)A novel fluid boil-off calorimeter, the first of this type to use electrical techniques, was developed. This calorimeter was calibrated with water from 17 psia to 2325 psia pressure and 142(DEGREES)F to 511(DEGREES) in ...
-
(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, 1988)Calcite solubility was determined experimentally in NaCl solutions from 25° to 89°C and in Na-Ca-Cl solutions at 25°C. The results are important for understanding the subsurface diagenesis of calcite cements. Solution ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)Specific heat measurements have been made on splat-cooled La.84Ga.16, La.80Ga.20, La.76Ga.24, La.74Ga.26, La.72Ga.28, La.80Au.20, and La.76Au.24 amorphous alloys in the temperature range 1.3 to 6k. Debye temperatures ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)Water adsorbed in polymers is important for mechanical, electrical, and other physical properties. At low concentrations the water does not freeze but becomes immobile at about 150(DEGREES)K. Polymers have many small ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Natural gas hydrates may exist in deep ocean sediments in the presence of gas. Since recovery of hydrate samples is very difficult using conventional geotechnical sampling operations the development of in situ detection ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)Analytical models of hot water injection into groundwater aquifers were developed in this study. Available analytical models of this problem assume that the caprock overlying the aquifer is of infinite thickness. However, ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)In addition to maximizing the solar heating performance, the problem of sizing the window in a passive solar direct gain strategy is compounded by the potentially high glare and the probable visual noise caused by too much ...
