The objective of this study is to determine the mean heat transfer coefficient and heat transfer rate and to analyse the effect of inclination angles,the effect of subcooling temperatures and the effect of vapour velocity for laminar filmwise condensation of water vapour on a vertical tier of spheres experimentaly and analyticaly. For this purpose, the experimental aparatus were designed and manufactured. In the free condensation experimental study Ø50mm and Ø60 mm O.D. spheres were used to analyse the diameter effect . In the experimental studies of free and forced condensation Ø60mm O.D. spheres on which vapour flows at 2,75 bars were used to analyse the effect of vapour velocity. For the experimental study of the annular condensation in the concentric spheres the effect of vapour velocity was studied by forcing the vapour to flow in the area between two concentric spheres. In the free condensation experiments it is observed that at smaller diameters the heat flux and mean heat transfer coefficients for sphere is higher. In the free and forced condensation experiments increasing the velocity of vapour increases the mean heat transfer coefficient. At the experiments with annular condensation between the concentric spheres high mean heat transfer coefficient values have been obtained compared to the free and forced condansation over the surface of spheres experimental studies.

ELECTRICAL-CONDUCTIVITY AND SEEBECK COEFFICIENT OF (LA, CA) (CR, CO)O3
KOC, R; ANDERSON, HU (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1992-10-15)
Electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficients of (La, Ca) (Cr, Co) O3 were measured as a function of temperature. The electrical conductivity as measured in air from 100 to 1100-degrees-C increased with increasing Co and Ca content. The Seebeck coefficients were positive, indicating p-type conductivity. The substitution of Co for Cr significantly decreased the Seebeck coefficients, indicating that the substitution resulted in an increase in site occupancy, associated with the Co. The additional Ca substi...
ELASTIC-PLASTIC DEFORMATION OF A CENTRALLY HEATED CYLINDER
ORCAN, Y; GAMER, U (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1991-01-01)
Subject of the investigation is the deformation of a perfectly plastic cylinder with uniform temperature inside its cylindrical core and zero surface temperature. The calculation is based on Tresca's yield condition and the flow rule associated to it. For small radii of the hot core. a plastic region appears at the center and expands towards the surface of the cylinder with increasing core temperature. The other possibility is that, depending on the core radius, two plastic regions form one after the other ...
EVALUATION OF FLUX MODELS FOR RADIATIVE-TRANSFER IN RECTANGULAR FURNACES
Selçuk, Nevin (1988-07-01)
Three flux-type models for three-dimensional radiative heat transfer were applied to the prediction of the radiative flux density and the source term of a box-shaped enclosure problem based on data reported previously on a large-scale experimental furnace with steep temperature gradients. The models, which are a six-term discrete ordinate model and two Schuster-Schwarzschild type six-flux models, were evaluated from the viewpoints of both predictive accuracy and computational economy by comparing their pred...
Thermal convection in the presence of a vertical magnetic field
Guray, E.; Tarman, H. I. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-11-01)
The interaction between thermal convection and an external uniform magnetic field in the vertical is numerically simulated within a computational domain of a horizontally periodic convective box between upper and lower rigid plates. The numerical technique is based on a spectral element method developed earlier to simulate natural thermal convection. In this work, it is extended to a magnetoconvection problem. Its main features are the use of rescaled Legendre-Lagrangian polynomial interpolants in expanding...
Free vibration analysis of anisotropic laminated composite shells of revolution
Yavuzbalkan, Erdem; Kayran, Altan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2005)
In this thesis, the free vibration analysis of anisotropic laminated composite shells of revolution (ALCSOR) is studied. The governing equations are kinematic, constitutive, and motion equations. Geometrically linear strain-displacement equations of Reissner-Naghdi shell theory in combination with first-order shear deformation theory in which transverse shear and rotatory inertia effects are taken into consideration. The constitutive relations are for macrosopically ALCSOR in which statically equivalent for...
