An analytical model is developed for predicting the transient thermal behavior of a latent thermal energy storage (LTES) system in which circular fins are attached to the heat pipes. Thermal energy is stored or released by the heat pipe heat exchanger, and pure conduction is assumed for the ch...
Firstly, the load-transfer model for energy piles is developed to investigate the effect of cyclic thermal loading on the pile settlement. Then, the LRFD procedures based on first-order reliability method and target reliability method are implemented into two different constrained nonlinear optimization...
Hu et al. [18] showed the dependence of the TBR between SWNT and air on the energy parameter of LJ potential. While these studies have revealed interfacial thermal transport of specific system or parameter, the general model that relates TBR and molecular potential parameters, which would be ...
AbstractAn approach to determine self-thermal impedances for construction of a thermal model of a power IGBT module based on the electrothermal analogy method has been considered. Unlike the conventional method, the suggested approach takes into account a change in the thermal resistances depending on...
Nowadays, the relationship between the urban form and energy consumption has been estimated by many researchers, showing how the morphological aspects influence the energy consumption of the buildings, the thermal comfort of the urban spaces and the district air quality. Conversely, in recent urban ...
In thermal steady state, total energy gain of an animal equals energy loss (e.g.33,34: $${\text{E}}_{{{\text{gain}}} = {\text{E}}_{{{\text{loss}}} ;$$ (1) (for abbreviations used see Table1, iteratively calculated coefficients are written initalicsthere and below). Energy...

Fuzzy controlled evaporative battery thermal management system for EV/HEV Electrical car battery voltage changes significantly to meet the power demands while the car is in acceleration and at the time of momentary peak load. The... A Rahman,F Nur,MNA Hawlader,... - 《International Journal of...
The objective of the present work is to devise a model for calculation of the convective part of heat transfer coefficient in mist flow boiling developed on the basis of energy dissipation principle in the flow under thermal equilibrium conditions. In such conditions heated surface is cooled by fo...
