Analysis Effects of Average Value of Convective and Evaporative Heat Transfer Coefficient on Solar Cabinet Dryer for Reduction of Mass of Papad

In this research paper, the behavior of heat and mass transfer phenomenon during greenhouse papad drying under forced convection mode has been investigated. Various experiments were performed during the month of April 2020 at SRCEM Banmore, morena (26o 34’13” N 78o 10’48” E). Experimental data obtained for forced convection greenhouse drying of papad were used to determine the constants in the Nusselt number expression by using the simple linear regression analysis and, consequently, the values of convective and evaporative heat transfer coefficients were evaluated. The average values of experimental constants C and n were determined as 0.9714 and 0.0129 respectively. The average values of convective and evaporative heat transfer coefficients were determined as 0.0886 W/m2 oC and 6.7583 W/m2 oC respectively. The experimental error in terms of percentage uncertainty was also evaluated. Keywords: Papad, Papad drying, Heat transfer coefficient, Convective, Evaporative, Forced convection greenhouse

Optimized frame work for Reiner–Philippoff nanofluid with improved thermal sources and Cattaneo–Christov modifications: A numerical thermal analysis

This motivating analysis aims to present the thermal mechanism for mixed convection flow of Reiner–Philippoff nanofluid with assessment of entropy generation. The thermal performances of nanomaterials have been modified by utilizing the nonuniform heat source/sink, Ohmic dissipations and thermal radiation consequences. The assumed surface is assumed to be porous with non-Darcian porous medium. The modified Cattaneo–Christov relations are followed to modify the mass and heat equations. The invoking of similarity variables results in differential equations in nonlinear and coupled form. A MATLAB-based shooting algorithm is employed to access the numerical simulations. The physical aspect of thermal model is graphically addressed for endorsed flow parameters. The importance of entropy generation is visualized with associated mathematical relations and physical explanations. The numerical values are obtained for the assessment of heat and mass transfer phenomenon.
