Nano liquid-metal fluid as ultimate coolant

We proposed for the first time the concept of the nano liquid-metal fluid, aiming to establish an engineering route to make the highest conductive coolant. Using several widely accepted theoretical models for characterizing the nano fluid, the thermal conductivity enhancement of the liquid-metal fluid due to addition of more conductive nano particles was predicted. Further, the effects of particle size, cluster of nano particle, solid-like layer due to adsorption, volume fraction and particle types were evaluated. Having the highest conductivity, being electromagnetically drivable, the liquid metal with low melting point is expected to be an idealistic base fluid for making super conductive solution which may lead to the ultimate coolant in a wide variety of heat transfer enhancement area.     

A Law of Large Numbers for the Zeroes of Heine–Stieltjes Polynomials

We determine the limiting density of the zeroes of Heine–Stieltjes polynomials (or of any set of points satisfying the conclusion of Heine–Stieltjes Theorem) in the thermodynamic limit and use this to prove a strong law of large numbers for the zeroes.     

Algebraic and Geometric Properties of Matrix Solutions of Nonlinear Wave Equations

We improve the construction of exact matrix solutions for nonlinear wave equations by using unitary anti-Hermitian and anticommuting matrices. We prove the theorem that constructs the matrix functions u _n satisfying the nonlinear wave equation for a set of special potentials. In this case, the graph of complex solution u ₁ has a soliton-like form with a finite number of coils. Exponential representation of matrix solutions u _n is associated with continuous rotations that can be used for describing intrinsic rotations and state changes of elementary particles. We also prove the theorem on the decomposition of continuous rotation (described by solution u ₂) onto three simultaneous rotations about coordinate vectors. Each of the three constructed matrix solutions u ₃ is also decomposed into the triplet of elementary matrix solutions.     

Explicit Exact Solutions for Some Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations with Nonlinear Terms of Any Order

In this paper, by introducing some appropriate transformation and with the help of symbolic computation, we study exact travelling wave solutions for the high-order modified Boussinesq equation, a single nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation and a generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation with nonlinear terms of any order by use of the extended-tanh method. Thus, some new exact travelling-wave solutions, which contain kink-shaped solitons, bell-shaped solitons, periodic solutions, combined formal solitons, rational solutions and singular solitons for these equations, are obtained.     

On null isotropy in spacetimes

Null isotropy in a spacetime is defined. The relation of null isotropy to the constant curvature and infinitesimal spatial isotropy is investigated. The influence of null isotropy on conjugate points along null geodesics and curvature singularities is investigated.     

Some analytical aspects in field theories with dynamical mass generation

The consequence of dynamical mass generation on the singularity structure of propagators is discussed. First the phenomena of dynamical mass generation is discussed in the framework of Euclidean gap equations, then a possible Minkowski solution is looked for. The examples are reviewed and studied for several models: Yukawa, QED, QCD and Wess-Zumino. It is argued that the absence of propagator pole goes hand in hand with the nontrivial solution for mass function. The consequences are discussed.     

The Doss Trick on Symmetric Spaces

The Doss trick is employed to find solutions of Schrüdinger equations on symmetric spaces of compact type. The potentials and initial conditions are taken from an algebra of functions which admit an holomorphic extension to the complexification of the considered symmetric spaces.

On the existence of self-similar solutions of the equations governing unsteady flow through a porous medium

In this paper the conditions for the existence of self-similar solutions of the equations governing unsteady flows through a porous medium are presented and discussed. The first two sections deal with the case of non-Newtonian fluids of power-law behavior; the third section analyzes the case of non-Darcy gas flows. The boundary and initial conditions occuring currently in a large class of fluid mechanics problems, of practical interest in engineering, are considered.     

Condensation from steam—air mixtures in a horizontal annular flow channel

Experiments were performed on the condensation of steam from steam-air mixtures in annular flow at a cooled inner tube. The range of investigation was varied for laminar and turbulent flow for 1.5 × 10³ Re 1.3 × 10⁴ and inlet concentrations 0.59 p_steam/p_total 0.95. The measurements, performed at an open test loop at p_total ≈ 0.96 bar, allowed local heat and mass transfer coefficients to be evaluated for various inlet lengths in the 2 m long annulus. The steam concentration was measured locally inside the annulus with a newly developed dew-point probe. The heat flux was measured locally using the temperature gradient in the cooled inner tube.

Near the inlet region the experiments showed a slightly higher heat flux at the bottom of the tube compared to the top, although it is expected to be smaller there owing to a thicker liquid film. Far downstream from the inlet region the heat transfer at the top was higher than at the bottom. The reasons for these effects are discussed, yielding a better understanding of the thermal and fluid processes involved in condensation from vapor-gas mixtures. The measured data allow the development of correlations for predicting the local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers in a horizontal annular-flow chanbel.
