An experimental and numerical investigation of the effects of the diaphragm pressure ratio and its position on a heated shock tube performance
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2022 , Article)
The main purpose of this work was to investigate the performance of heated shock tube (ST) with different pressure ratios and diaphragm positions numerically and experimentally. The numerical model was developed to simulate ...
An Anchor-Based Localization in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks for Industrial Oil Pipeline Monitoring
(
IEEE Canada
, 2022 , Article)
Industries need solutions that can automatically monitor oil leakage from deployed underwater pipelines and to rapidly report any damage. The location prediction of mineral reservoirs like oil, gas, or metals in deep water ...
Robust and General Model to Forecast the Heat Transfer Coefficient for Flow Condensation in Multi Port Mini/Micro‐Channels
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2022 , Article)
A general correlation for predicting the two‐phase heat transfer coefficient (HTC) during condensation inside multi‐port mini/micro‐channels was presented. The model was obtained by correlating the two‐phase multiplier, ...
