Flow Testing of Balcova Geothermal Field Turkey
Parlaktuna, Mahmut; Parlaktuna, Burak (2015-04-19)
Balçova geothermal field is located in a densely populated area which makes direct heat applications very efficient and economical. Heat produced from Balçova geothermal field is utilized for three main purposes: greenhouse heating, balneology and residential heating. Among these three applications, the latter one is the main application throughout the Balçova District Heating System. The field produces hot water from two different horizons: one shallow and one deeper zone. After had utilized for 16 years, ...
Flow characterization study and fire experiments in a reduced scaled tunnel
Abuaisheh, Majd Basil Abdel Muhsen; Yozgatlıgil, Ahmet; Pınarcıoğlu, Mehmet Melih; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2019)
This work is an experimental study on the subject of tunnel fires, which is conducted on a ventilated 1/13 scaled tunnel model in the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory, Department of Mechanical Engineering of Middle East Technical University. In order to perform the experiments, in the first stage, the tunnel model was completely renovated, and its overall condition was improved to obtain better means of control and accuracy on the experimental measurements. In the second stage of the thesis, a flow characterizati...
Flow Characterization of Viscoelastic Fluids around Square Obstacle
Tezel, Guler Bengusu; YAPICI, Kerim; Uludağ, Yusuf (Periodica Polytechnica Budapest University of Technology and Economics, 2019-01-01)
This study focuses on the computational implementation of structured non-uniform finite volume method for the 2-D laminar flow of viscoelastic fluid past a square section of cylinder in a confined channel with a blockage ratio 1/4 for Re = 10(-)(4), 5, 10 and 20. Oldroyd-B model (constant viscosity with elasticity) and the PTT model (shear-thinning with elasticity) are the constitutive models considered. In this study effects of the elasticity and inertia on the drag coefficients and stress fields around th...
Flow investigation in a channel reactor using chemically reacting boundary layer equations
Kenar, Doğu Hazar; Özyörük, Yusuf; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2023-1-13)
In this study, an algorithm for the solution of chemically reacting flows in a channel reactor is developed by using boundary layer equations. The governing flow equations are simplified under certain assumptions with the application of similarity transformation. As a consequence of simplification, the characteristics of flow equations are changed to parabolic partial differential equations (PDE). Parabolic PDEs can be solved by numerical techniques initially designed for ordinary differential equations (OD...
Flow visualization and determination of temperature distribution in inclined channels
Sağlamcı, Abdülaziz Mehmet; Bayer, Özgür; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2018)
Subway transportation systems play an important role in human life in this century. Millions of people make use of subway transportation every day in metropolises. In subways, there is a very crucial situation "case of fire and smoke generation" that must be prevented. In subway areas, it is known that stairs are used to connect the ground with the subway area, metro stations in other words. Stairs have an angle with the ground horizontal called as tilt angle. The most important case of smoke movement in ca...
