Summary: The heat transfer mechanisms during flow condensation of binary mixtures inside pipes have been extensively studied, and it has been found that the heat transfer coefficient follows a similar scaling law for single and binary component fluids. This discovery reduces the complexity of the model and suggests that the dominant heat transfer resistance is located in the conductive sublayer, unaffected by the flow pattern, liquid film thickness, or mass transfer resistance.

Summary: The present study investigates the influence of constant pressure gradient on flow and heat transfer rate of Jeffrey fluid through concentric pipes annular sector duct. Simulation results show that increasing the ratio of relaxation to retardation times, lambda, can improve the friction factor under certain conditions, while the forced convective heat transfer rate remains almost constant in the absence of viscous dissipation. Additionally, the effect of viscous dissipation becomes favorable with the increase in Brinkman number, Br, on heat transfer rate for higher value of lambda at specific radius ratio and apex angle of the concentric pipes annular sector duct.

Summary: The aim of this study is to develop a robust and theoretically supported heat transfer coefficient correlation for downward two-component two-phase flow in inclined pipes. A new correlation was proposed based on an extensive literature review and analysis of experimental data. This new correlation is of practical importance in understanding the two-component two-phase heat transfer characteristics.

Summary: This study investigates the optimal experimental conditions of acoustic field-enhanced heat transfer using an experimental platform for convective heat transfer in a double-pipe exchanger. The experiment compares laminar flow and turbulent flow states, as well as the arrangement of horizontal and vertical pipes, to explore the enhancement effect of the acoustic field on heat transfer. The results show that the vertical pipe in laminar flow condition and the horizontal pipe in turbulent flow condition have the highest heat transfer capacities with maximum reinforcement efficiencies of 43.6% and 24.5% respectively.

Summary: Ice slurries can effectively store thermal energy and improve the efficiency of refrigeration systems. This study investigated the thermo-hydraulic behavior of ice slurry in U-Bend pipes using numerical simulations and experimental validation. The results showed that the heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop increased with the ice particle diameter, Reynolds number, and ice volume fraction.

Summary: Recent advances in CO2-based refrigeration systems have necessitated the derivation of heat transfer correlations for designing the corresponding industrial equipment. This study focuses on deriving such correlations for indirect sublimation, through conduction mechanism, where a material is sublimated on a hot surface by transferring energy. An experimental-theoretical approach was taken to investigate this subject under constant wall temperature conditions. A real-time temperature and weight display apparatus was constructed to sublimate dry ice blocks of different sizes, with circular and rectangular geometries. The heat transfer coefficient, hsub, decreased from 126 to 70 W/m2K as the temperature of the hotplate changed from -30 to 200 degrees C. These coefficients are approximately one-fourth of those in flow (direct) sublimation. The weight and area of the block had positive and negative effects on heat transfer, respectively. In the theoretical part, two models, linear-gradient and semi-analytical, were developed. The more accurate semi-analytical model estimated hsub with average errors of 6.4% and 21.3% in circular and rectangular geometries, while the linear-gradient model had respective errors of 17.3% and 25.9%.

Summary: The use of Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHPs) has experienced rapid growth worldwide due to its advantages of low energy consumption and reduced emissions. However, the high cost of Ground Heat Exchanger (GHE) installation is a major obstacle to its widespread adoption. Previous studies have focused on improving heat transfer in GHEs using nanotechnology, including the development of nanofluids and new materials, as well as the design of new heat exchanger configurations.

Summary: Enhanced condensation is crucial for improving and miniaturizing power generation and refrigeration systems. This study focuses on developing local design guidelines for condensing flows, comparing the benefits of enhancing low, medium, and high-quality condensation, and analyzing three enhancement techniques. Results show that heat transfer enhancement is achieved when the increase in heat exchanger conductance exceeds the reduction in temperature difference induced by condensation pressure drop.

Summary: This study investigated the heat transfer performance of ionanofluids composed of long multi-walled carbon nanotubes and an ionic liquid, showing that heat transfer is dominated by convection mechanisms. The amalgamation of these components was justified by a new thermo-economic efficiency-price index, demonstrating advantages in both thermophysical and economic aspects.
