Abstract This study is conducted to investigate the effect of off-center placement of twisted tape on flow distribution and heat transfer in a circular tube. The effect of tape width of 20, 18, 16, 14 and 12 mm on the heat transfer performance is discussed under the same twist ratio of 2.0. The numerical analysis of the flow field, average Nusselt number, friction factor and thermo-hydraulic performance parameter of the tube are discussed with Reynolds number ranged from 2600 to 8760. The results indicate that the Nusselt number of the tube fitted with center-placed twisted tapes at various width is 7~51% higher than the plain tube, and performance in low Reynolds region was found more effective than that in high Reynolds region. The heat transfer for circular tube with twisted tape attached to the wall shows better performance than that for the tube with center-placed twisted tape. With a smaller tape width, a higher increasing ratio of Nu-wall/Nu-center is obtained. The increasing ratio for Nusselt number ranged from 3 to 18%. However, the use of twisted tape inserts is not beneficial for energy saving. The thermo-hydraulic performance parameters for convective heat transfer of helium gas flowing in a circular tube are below unity for the calculated Reynolds region.

: Turbulence promoters in the form of twisted tapes effectively improve heat exchangers thermal performance. The current review article summarizes the experimental and numerical behaviours of a heat exchanger. The experimental investigation reported in the literature of heat enhancement and fluid flowing characteristics with different twisted tape and tube configurations. Distant twisted tape configurations are employed to increase the heat enhancement rate in the different heat exchanger tubes. Based on the correlations developed by different investigators, an experiment has been made to differentiate the thermal-hydraulic performance of twisted tape configurations in heat exchanger tubes. A comparative study is also carried out to select the excellent twisted tape and tube configurations for superior thermohydraulic performance in the present work. This review article also provides a platform for researchers researching a similar area to design an improved heat enhancement rate apparatus using superlative twisted tape and tube configurations to increase the thermohydraulic performance by increasing the system's energy output.

Ultra Fine Particles

The direct evaporation of metallic oxides or sulfides does not always given the same compounds with starting material, i.e. decomposition took place. Since the controll of the sulfur or selenium vapors was difficult, a similar production method for oxide particles could not be used for preparation of such compounds in spite of increasing interest in the fields of material science, astrophysics and mineralogy. In the present paper, copper metal was evaporated from a molybdenum silicide heater which was proposed by us to produce the ultra-fine particles in reactive gas as shown schematically in Figure 1. Typical smoke by this method in Ar gas at a pressure of 13 kPa is shown in Figure 2. Since the temperature at a location of a few mm below the heater, maintained at 1400° C , were a few hundred degrees centigrade, the selenium powder in a quartz boat was evaporated at atmospheric temperature just below the heater. The copper vapor that evaporated from the heater was mixed with the stream of selenium vapor,and selenide was formed near the boat. If then condensed by rapid cooling due to the collision with inert gas, thus forming smoke similar to that from the metallic sulfide formation. Particles were collected and studied by a Hitachi H-800 electron microscope.Figure 3 shows typical EM images of the produced copper selenide particles. The morphology was different by the crystal structure, i.e. round shaped plate (CuSe;hexagona1 a=0.39,C=l.723 nm) ,definite shaped p1 ate(Cu5Se4;Orthorhombic;a=0.8227 , b=1.1982 , c=0.641 nm) and a tetrahedron(Cu1.8Se; cubic a=0.5739 nm). In the case of compound ultrafine particles there have been no observation for the particles of the tetrahedron shape. Since the crystal structure of Cu1.8Se is the anti-f1uorite structure, there has no polarity.

Ultrafine particles usually have unique physical properties. This study illustrates how the lattice defects and interfacial structures between particles are related to the size of ultrafine crystalline gold particles.Colloidal gold particles were produced by reducing gold chloride with sodium citrate at 100°C. In this process, particle size can be controlled by changing the concentration of the reactant. TEM samples are prepared by transferring a small amount of solution onto a thin (5 nm) carbon film which is suspended on a copper grid. In this work, all experiments were performed with Philips 430T at 300 kV.With controlled seeded growth, particles of different sizes are produced, as shown in Figure 1. By a careful examination, it can be resolved that very small particles have lattice defects with complex interfaces. Some typical particle structures include multiple twins, resulting in a five-fold symmetry bicrystals, and highly disordered regions. Many particles are too complex to be described by simple models.

RELAÇÃO VAZÃO x PRESSÃO EM MICROASPERSORES DAN 2001 SOB CONDIÇÃO ADVERSA DE OPERAÇÃO  Marco Antônio Fonseca ConceiçãoEmbrapa Uva e Vinho, Estação Experimental de Jales, Jales, SP. CP 241. CEP 15700-000.E-mail: [email protected] Duarte CoelhoDepartamento de Engenharia Rural, Escola Superior de Agricultura “Luiz de Queiroz”, Universidade de São Paulo, Piracicaba, SP. CP 09, CEP 13418-900.E-mail: [email protected]  1 RESUMO  Alguns microaspersores possuem membranas que regulam a sua pressão de operação, mantendo a vazão praticamente estável dentro de uma faixa de pressão na rede hidráulica. Operadores de irrigação no campo, muitas vezes com baixo nível de instrução e sem orientação profissional qualificada, visando reduzir problemas de entupimento ou para diminuir o tempo de irrigação, costumam retirar as membranas autocompensantes para aumentar a vazão do emissores, o que pode comprometer o desempenho hidráulico do sistema. Para avaliar o efeito da retirada da membrana  sobre as vazões dos microaspersores, no presente trabalho determinou-se as relações entre pressão e vazão para sete bocais do microaspersor DAN 2001, operando na ausência da membrana autocompensante. As curvas pressão-vazão sem as membranas autocompensantes apresentaram comportamento potencial com expoentes variando entre 0,58 e 0,64. As vazões dos microaspersores sem as membranas aumentaram de forma inversamente proporcional aos diâmetros dos emissores, quando comparadas às vazões nominais com as membranas.  UNITERMOS: Hidráulica, irrigação, microaspersão.  CONCEIÇÃO, M.A.F.; COELHO, R.D. FLOW X PRESSURE RELATIONSHIP FOR DAN 2001 MICROSPRINKLERS UNDER ADVERSE CONDITION  2 ABSTRACT  Many types of microsprinklers have a self-compensating membrane to regulate their pressure, keeping a stable flow. Many producers usually take the membranes off to reduce clogging problems  or irrigation time. This procedure could endanger the system hydraulic performance. To evaluate the effect of taking off the self-compensating membrane from microsprinklers it was determined, in the present work, the pressure-flow relationship for seven Dan 2001 microsprinkler nozzles operating without the membrane. The pressure-flow curves presented a potential behavior with the exponents varying from 0.58 to 0.64. Microsprinkler flows without the membranes increased inversely proportional to the emitter diameters, comparing to the nominal flows using the membranes.  KEYWORDS: Hydraulic, irrigation, microsprinkler.
