Experimental investigation of heat transfer performance of corrugated tube with spring tape inserts

Turbulent forced convection in a corrugated tube with spring tape is investigated experimentally, for Reynolds numbers from 10,000 to 50,000. The working fluid is air. Experiments are performed for different pitch and spring ratios. Results show that Nusselt numbers can be increased considerably, depending on pitch and spring ratios. An overall assessment, considering the friction losses, is achieved using the thermo-hydraulic performance parameter. The latter is observed to take values larger than unity for all cases, where quite high values around 2.8 occur for cases with smallest pitch and spring ratios. Predictive Nusselt number and friction factor correlations are proposed.     

Nonintrusive data-based learning of a switched control heating system using POD,DMD and ANN

The aim of this work is to derive an accurate model of two-dimensional switched control heating system from data generated by a Finite Element solver. The nonintrusive approach should be able to capture both temperature fields, dynamics and the underlying switching control rule. To achieve this goal, the algorithm proposed in this paper will make use of three main ingredients: proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) and artificial neural networks (ANN). Some numerical results will be presented and compared to the high-fidelity numerical solutions to demonstrate the capability of the method to reproduce the dynamics.     

Stratification phenomenon in an inclined rheology of UCM nanomaterial

This investigation presents the unsteady rheology of Maxwell nanomaterial induced to flow over an inclined surface. Simultaneous effects of stratification, thermal radiation, heat source/sink and magnetic field are taken into account. Viscous dissipation and mixed convection due to concentration and temperature differences are also analyzed. The governing partial differential equations for the Maxwell nanofluid which incorporate the effects of Brownian and thermophoresis effects are simplified by using appropriate similarity transformations, and solved analytically by using homotopy analysis method (HAM). The effects of involved physical parameters on the flow field are analyzed graphically and numerically.     

砂土串囊式充气锚杆承载力的研究

在砂土地层中,串囊式充气锚杆的研究还比较少,其承载特性及受力机理尚不明确。本文基于莫尔-库仑模型和Vesic圆孔扩张理论法,分别对圆柱体、球体、组合体、椭球体假设下的串囊式充气锚杆的扩大段进行计算分析。并将计算结果与试验得到的实测值进行对比。结果表明:四种形状假设中椭球体的形状假设理论值与实测值的误差最小,仅为8.35%。通过拟合试验数据,并引入与端阻力和侧摩阻力有关的两个系数对承载力公式进行修正,得到了抗拔承载力的经验公式。     

Modifying the physicochemical properties,solubility and foaming capacity of milk proteins by ultrasound-assisted alkaline pH-shifting treatment

This study investigated the effects of different treatment of alkaline pH-shifting on milk protein concentrate (MPC), micellar casein concentrate (MCC) and whey protein isolate (WPI) assisted by the same ultrasound conditions, including changes in the physicochemical properties, solubility and foaming capacity. The solubility of milk proteins had a significant increase with gradual enhancement of ultrasound-assisted alkaline pH-shifting (p < 0.05), especially for MCC up to 99.50 %. Also, treatment made a significant decline in the particle size of MPC and MCC, as well as the turbidity of the proteins (p < 0.05). The foaming capacity of MPC, MCC, and WPI was all improved, especially at pH 11, and at this pH, the milk protein also showed the highest surface hydrophobicity. The best foaming capacity at pH 11 was the result of the combined effect of particle size, potential, protein conformation, solubility, and surface hydrophobicity. In conclusion, ultrasound-assisted pH-shifting treatment was found to be effective in improving the physicochemical properties and solubility and foaming capacity of milk proteins, especially MCC, with promising application prospect in food industry.     

Computational modeling of heat transfer and sintering behavior during direct metal laser sintering of AlSi10Mg alloy powder

Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is one of the leading additive manufacturing processes, which produces complex metallic parts directly from the powder. One of the major problems of this rapid manufacturing process is an inhomogeneous temperature distribution, which leads to residual stress in the build part. Thus, temperature analyses must be performed, to better understand the temperature distribution and sintering behavior of the powder bed with a different laser recipe. In this study, a comprehensive three-dimensional numerical model was developed to understand the temperature distribution during direct metal laser sintering of AlSi10Mg alloy powder. The computer simulation was carried out in ANSYS 17.0 platform. Further, the effect of process parameters such as laser power and scan speed on the temperature distribution and sintering behavior were studied. From the simulation results, it was found that, when the laser power increased from 70 W to 190 W, the maximum temperature of the molten pool increased from 731?°C to 2672?°C, and the molten pool length changed from 0.286 mm to 2.167 mm. A reverse phenomenon was observed with an increase in scan speed. The sintering depth of the powder layer increases significantly from 0.061 mm to 0.872 mm with increasing the applied laser power, but decreased from 0.973 mm to 0.209 mm as a higher scan speed was applied. The developed model helps to optimize the powder layer thickness and minimize the wastage of excess powders during the sintering process.
