CONJUGATE HEAT TRANSFER AND THERMO-STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF THE ACTIVELY COOLED MULTI-STAGE CONICAL NOZZLE AND HYPERSONIC LOW-REYNOLDS DIFFUSER OF THE NEW ARC-HEATED WIND TUNNEL (AWHT-II) OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON
(2017-05-24)
Arc-heated wind tunnels are the primary test facility for screening and qualification of candidate materials for hypersonic thermal protection systems (TPS). Via an electric arc that largely augments the enthalpy (by tens ...
SHAPE OPTIMIZATION OF HELICAL COIL TUBE FOR MAXIMIZING HEAT TRANSFER
(2016-12-20)
Many researchers have observed the enhancement of heat transfer in coiled tubes compared to straight tubes with the same diameter and length. It is known fact, that in a helical coil tube the maximum axial velocity shifted ...
