Evaluation of the efficiency increment potential for francis turbines using CFD analysis
Özcan, Arslan Ömür; Aksel, Mehmet Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2016)
Francis turbine is a widely used hydraulic turbine in hydropower plants. This thesis analyzes a Francis turbine using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis and offers an improved design in case of energy production. First the initial performance of the turbine is analyzed using CFD analysis, possible cavitation regions are evaluated and design point of the turbine is found using hill chart method and compared with the on-site efficiency measurement results. Then an optimization study is held to improv...
Evaluation of effectiveness of different bioactive agents for treatment of osteoarthritis with in vitro model under dynamic mechanical stimulation
Kavas, Ayşegül; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Department of Engineering Sciences (2007)
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease characterized by the progressive degradation of articular cartilage. Current strategies for the disease are mainly towards relieving symptoms. This study was aimed to investigate the therapeutic potentials of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-9 (BMP-9), Raloxifene (Ral) and Pluronic F-68 (PLF-68) with a three-dimensional in vitro OA model. Articular chondrocytes isolated from rats were cultured in growth media and embedded in agarose to obtain agarose-chondrocyte discs. Dynamic hyd...
Evaluation of the radiative recombination mechanism in Si nanocrystals embedded in silica matrix
Righini, Marcofabio; Gnoli, Andrea; Razzari, Luca; Serincan, Ugur; Turan, Raşit (American Scientific Publishers, 2008-02-01)
We report measurements of the temperature dependence of photoluminescence (PQ life-time and efficiency of Si nanocrystals (Si-Nc) embedded in silica matrix. We use a practical technique based on lock-in acquisition that allows us to simultaneously evaluate, at each emission-energy, intensity and decay-time of the detected signal. Samples are prepared by Silicon-ion implantation in a SiO2 layer followed by thermal annealing. The implantation dose of Si ions ranges between 2 x 10(16) cm(-2) and 2 x 10(17) cm(...
EVALUATION OF THE CHITOSAN-COATING EFFECTIVENESS ON A DENTAL TITANIUM ALLOY IN TERMS OF MICROBIAL AND FIBROBLASTIC ATTACHMENT AND THE EFFECT OF AGING

The aim of this study was to obtain a biocompatible and antimicrobial implant surface by coating Ti6Al4V with chitosan which can be used to create a smooth transmucosal region for a faster and better wound healing and an increased bioactivity. Ti6Al4V plates were first abraded and ultrasonically cleaned and then coated with chitosan. In order to simulate the conditions of an oral environment, a group of coated plates were treated in a thermocycle apparatus. The coatings were evaluated with SEM, EDS, XRD and...
EVALUATION OF NUSSELT NUMBER FOR A FLOW IN A MICROTUBE USING SECOND-ORDER SLIP MODEL
Cetin, Barbaros; Bayer, Özgür (National Library of Serbia, 2011-01-01)
In this paper. the fully-developed temperature profile and corresponding Nusselt value is determined analytically for a gaseous flow in a microtube with a thermal boundary condition of constant wall heat flux. The flow assumed to be laminar, and hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed. The fluid is assumed to be constant property and incompressible. The effect of rarefaction, viscous dissipation and axial conduction, which are important at the microscale, are included in the analysis. Second-order sl...
