Effect of surface roughness on heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics at low reynolds numbers in small diameter tubes
(Taylor & Francis, 2003)The effect of surface roughness on pressure drop and heat transfer in circular tubes has been extensively studied in literature. The pioneering work of Nikuradse [I] established the sand grain roughness as a major parameter ... -
An Extension of the flow boiling correlation to transition, laminar and deep laminar flows in minichannels and microchannels
(Taylor & Francis, 2004)Flow boiling in mini- and microchannels offer very high heat transfer capabilities and find applications in many emerging technologies, such as electronics cooling and fuel cells. The low flow rate employed in such ... -
Evaluation of single phase flow in microchannels for high heat flux chip cooling - thermohydraulic performance enhancement and fabrication technology
(Taylor & Francis, 2004)The increased circuit density on today’s computer chips is reaching the heat dissipation limits for air-cooling technology. The direct liquid cooling of chips is being considered as a viable alternative. This paper reviews ... -
Experimental study of flow patterns, pressure drop, and flow instabilities in parallel rectangular minichannels
(Taylor & Francis, 2005)Flow boiling heat transfer in parallel minichannels and microchannels is one of the solutions proposed for cooling high heat flux systems. The associated increase in the pressure drop poses a problem that needs to be ... -
High flux heat removal with microchannels — A Roadmap of challenges and opportunities
(Taylor & Francis, 2005)Heat fluxes in IC chips and other electronics equipment have reached the current limits of air-cooling technology. Some of the applications require heat fluxes well beyond the limit of 100 W/cm2, thus demanding advanced ... -
Paracrystal model of the high-temperature lamellar phase of a ternary microemulsion system
(Blackwell Publishing : Journal of Applied Crystallography, 1991-10-01)Small-angle neutron scattering was used to investigate the microstructure of the high-temperature L-alpha phase in the AOT/water/decane system [AOT = sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate]. The system was modeled as ... -
Changing strategies and tactics for new product development
(Blackwell Publishing, Ltd. The definitive version is available at http://www.blackwell-synergy.com, 2004-03)There has been a considerable amount of effort and writing devoted to improving the new product development process during the last two decades. Although there have been some suprises in this literature and in reports from ... -
Surface modification of Teflon (R) PFA with vacuum UV photo-oxidation
(Brill Academic Publishers: Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 2006)Surface modification of poly(tetrafluoroethylene-co-perfluoropropyl vinyl ether) (PFA) with vacuum UV (VUV) photo-oxidation using radiation from excited Ar atoms downstream from an At microwave (MW) plasma shows: (1) an ... -
Boiling heat transfer with binary mixtures: Part II — Flow boiling in plain tubes
(ASME, 1998)Flow boiling heat transfer with pure fluids comprises convective and nucleate boiling components. In flow boiling of binary mixtures, in addition to the suppression effects present in pool boiling, the presence of flow ... -
Boiling heat transfer with binary mixtures: Part I— A theoretical model for pool boiling
(ASME, 1998)Experimental evidence available in the literature indicates that the pool boiling heat transfer with binary mixtures is lower than the respective mole- or mass-fraction averaged value. Although a few investigators have ... -
Predicting communication protocol performance on superscalar architectures using instruction dependency
(Elsevier Science, 2005-11)Increasing diversity in telecommunication workloads leads to greater complexity in communication protocols. This occurs as channel bandwidth rapidly increases. These factors result in larger computational loads for network ... -
Two-dimensional packing in prolate granular materials
(Physical Review Letters, 2003-05-07)We investigate the two-dimensional packing of extremely prolate (aspect ratio = L/D > 10) granular materials, comparing experiments with Monte-Carlo simulations. In experimental piles of particles with aspect ratio ... -
Jamming of 3D prolate granular materials
(Physical Review Letters, 2006-03-23)We have found that the ability of long thin rods to jam into a solid-like state in response to a local perturbation depends upon both the particle aspect ratio and the container size. The dynamic phase diagram in this ... -
Constraints on Jupiters from observations of Galactic Bulge microlensing events during 2000.
(Blackwell Publishing, 2002-06-10)We present observations of 8 Galactic Bulge microlensing events taken with the 1.0m JKT on La Palma during 2000 June and July. The JKT observing schedule was optimized using a prioritizing algorithm to automatically ... -
The rotating wind of the quasar PG 1700+518
(Nature Publishing Group, 2008-02-27)It is now widely accepted that most galaxies undergo an active phase, during which a central super-massive black hole generates vast radiant luminosities through the gravitational accretion of gas1,2. Winds launched from ... -
Benefits of Sign Language Interpreting and Text Alternatives for Deaf Students’ Classroom Learning
(Oxford Journals, 2008)Four experiments examined the utility of real-time text in supporting deaf students’ learning from lectures in postsecondary (Experiments 1 and 2) and secondary classrooms (Experiments 3 and 4). Experiment 1 compared ... -
An analysis of the motivational factors of intending entrepreneurs
(Journal of Small Business Strategy, 2002)This study compares men and women, who intend to become entrepreneurs. Intending entrepreneurs who have graduated with an MBA from a top tier Business School were compared to mitigate differences in backgrounds. Intending ... -
