1. AN INVESTIGATION OF THE HEAT TRANSFER PERFORMANCE OF DUAL IMPROVED INTERMIG IMPELLERS IN A STIRRED TANK WITH AN INNER HEATING COIL
Abstract The heat transfer process in a stirred tank of diameter T=0.5m equipped with dual-layer improved Intermig impellers and helical coils was investigated by experiment and numerical simulation methods. The temperature field, the temperature boundary layer lateral to the coil and the heat transfer coefficient were measured at different rotational speeds

3. SIMULATION OF THERMAL DECOMPOSITION IN AN OPEN CAVITY: ENTROPY ANALYSIS
ABSTRACT This paper presents a numerical analysis of entropy generation in a two-dimensional rectangular channel where the inlet flow undergoes thermal decomposition resulting from a chemical reaction. The model considered viscosity and thermal conductivity to be dependent of temperature. Irreversibility due to mass transport was included in the entropy gene

4. Drying of microalga Scenedesmus obliquus BR003 in a gas dryer at low temperatures
ABSTRACT: Development of efficient and specific equipment to dry microalgae is essential for commercial use of these microorganisms that show high growth rates and biotechnological potential. Drying costs of microalgae biomass are still high and they should be reduced for the production of compounds with low added value. Therefore, we evaluated the drying p

6. Sanitation and Drying of Sewage Sludge on Radiant Floors Using Solar Energy and Biogas: Comparison between Different Thicknesses of Deposited Mass
ABSTRACT Sewage sludge is a solid waste composed of water, rich in organic matter and nutrients, but concentrator of pathogenic microorganisms. Its use as agricultural fertilizer in the state of Paraná, Brazil is common. However, it is necessary to eliminate or significantly reduce microorganisms by means of a hygiene process. This can be obtained thermally

7. Numerical analysis of the liquid ejection due to the gaseous jet impact through computational fluid dynamics
Abstract Metal droplets generated by an impinging jet, play an important role in metal refining processes, mainly in oxygen steelmaking, where the droplets are ejected into the slag phase. Since the available interfacial area of droplets is very high in this process, the generated droplets enhance the rates of heat transfer and chemical reactions. Therefore,

8. A New Approach to Multidisciplinary Design Optimization of Solid Propulsion System Including Heat Transfer and Ablative Cooling
ABSTRACT: The optimum design of a solid propulsion system consists of optimization of various disciplines including structure, aerothermodynamics, heat transfer, and grain geometry. In this paper, an efficient model of every discipline has been developed, and a suitable framework is introduced for these hard-coupled disciplines. Hybrid optimization algorithm

9. THE COMPLETE MODELLING OF THE FILLING PROCESS OF HYDROGEN ONBOARD VEHICLE CYLINDERS
Abstract Complete modelling of the filling process occurring in a hydrogen-fueled vehicle storage cylinder is examined. A simultaneous modelling of the flow and heat transfer within the cylinder and cylinder wall has not been considered in previous studies. Rapid filling may result to an unexpected temperature rise and breaching of the safety standards. In t

11. ADVANCED CONTROL OF A COMPLEX CHEMICAL PROCESS
Abstract Three phase catalytic hydrogenation reactors are important reactors with complex behavior due to the interaction among gas, solid and liquid phases with the kinetic, mass and heat transfer mechanisms. A nonlinear distributed parameter model was developed based on mass and energy conservation principles. It consists of balance equations for the gas a

12. Configuration Study of Structurally Integrated Thermal Protection Systems for a Sub-Orbital Platform
ABSTRACT: The atmospheric hypersonic flight of sub-orbital and space vehicles generates aerodynamic heating and high wall heat fluxes, inducing high temperatures on the vehicle's structures and affecting their mechanical behavior, besides degrading the operation of board equipment. Furthermore, since payload preservation is always mandatory, the use of effic
