Laminar filmwise condensation of flowing vapor on a sphere
Erol, Doğuş; Yamalı, Cemil; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2004)
The objective of this study is to analyze theoretically the laminar film condensation of water vapor flowing on a sphere. For this purpose, the problem was handled by including all of the two-phase boundary layer parameters such as gravity, effect of vapor shear, inertia, energy convection and pressure gradient. For this full two-phase boundary layer system, the boundary layer equations, boundary conditions and the interfacial conditions were first analyzed, and then discretized. A computer program in Mathc...
The nonextensive generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics and its application
Bağcı, Gökhan Barış; Sever, Ramazan; Department of Physics (2005)
This thesis analyzes the nonextensive generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics and study its applications to some physical models such as isotropic rigid and non-rigid rotators. The thesis will also try to show what kind of internal energy constraint must be chosen for entropy optimization in a mathematically consistent manner.
Energy analysis of a solar assisted absorption heat pump for floor heating system
Sarı, Özgür Gökmen; Yamalı, Cemil; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2004)
Solar assisted single-stage absorption heat pump (AHP) was used to supply energy to a floor-heating system by using the exergy methods. An existing duplex-house,in Ankara, with a heating load of 25.5 kW was analysed. Heating loads of the spaces in the building were calculated and a floor heating panel was modelled for each space leading to the capacity of the AHP before it was designed. Solar energy was delivered to the evaporator and high temperature heat input delivered to the genarator are met by auxilia...
Shape Optimization of Reentry Vehicles to Minimize Heat Loading
Eyi, Sinan; Boyd, I D (2019-01-06)
The objective of the current study is to design an optimum reentry vehicle shape that minimizes heat loading subject to constraints on the maximum values of surface heat flux and temperature. A new heat loading formulation is developed for objective function evaluations. Axisymmetric Navier-Stokes and finite-rate chemical reaction equations are solved to evaluate the objective and constraint functions. The Menter SST turbulence model is employed for turbulence closure. A gradient-based method is used for op...
Thermal contact conductance of nominaly flat surfaces
Yüncü, Hafit (2006-11-01)
The variation of thermal conductance of contact has been investigated as a function of apparent contact pressure experimentally. Experimental data has been obtained for steel, brass, copper and aluminum test pieces having different surface roughness over a wide range of contact pressures. Experimental results are compared with the theoretical predictions of an existing theory. Comparison revealed good agreement of trend with the experimental data, however, numerical values vary widely. Theory can predict th...
