Abstract:
The article discusses the results of a statistical analysis of increases and decreases in the average daily air temperature, presented as waves of heat and cold. By a wave of heat (cold) we mean a change in the average daily air temperature by three degrees or more that lasted for at least two days. If a wave of heat (cold) was interrupted by one day of cooling (warming) or isothermy, such cases were considered a single wave. All waves were divided into dry and wet. A wave was considered wet if there was precipitation on at least one day during the development of this wave. We calculated the f

Abstract:
The impact of modern climate warming on the characteristics of heat and cold waves on the territory of Belarus has been analysed. Since 1988, the number of heat waves and strong thaws has significantly increased (less than 15% of all registered heat waves and strong thaws occurred in the pre-warming period of 1955–1987), while the number of frost and summer cold waves has decreased. The average duration of frost and summer cold waves has decreased by 0.5–1.5 days, the average duration of strong thaws has increased by 1 day, while the changes in the duration of heat waves have been less signifi

Climate change has led to increased volatility in extreme temperatures, which poses a significant threat to human health. One way in which extreme temperatures impact health is through changes in dietary patterns, particularly food consumption and nutrient intake.

The atmospheric circulation in the mid-latitudes of both hemispheres is usually dominated by westerly winds and by planetary-scale and shorter-scale synoptic waves, moving mostly from west to east. A remarkable and frequent exception to this “usual” behavior is atmospheric blocking. Blocking occurs when the usual zonal flow is hindered by the establishment of a large-amplitude, quasi-stationary, high-pressure meridional circulation structure which “blocks” the flow of the westerlies and the progression of the atmospheric waves and disturbances embedded in them.

Whereas individual autonomy valorises economic self-sufficiency, caregiving responsibilities constrain choice and conflict with paid work.

Abstract:
Phase change materials (PCMs) are attractive components of thermal energy storage systems due to their high energy densities and the relatively small temperature differences needed for effective charging and discharging. In this study, experimental data were examined in order to better understand energy exchange in packed beds and porous media comprised of solid/liquid phase change capsules. Air was used as the heat transfer fluid; hot air was injected in order to drive the melting process, while cold air was injected to accomplish freezing or solidification of the PCM.

Abstract:
Due to the multiplication of impacts of weather extremes when occurring in larger area, we proposed an areal approach of their evaluation. We evaluated six types of extreme weather events, namely, heat waves, cold waves, air temperature drops, windstorms, heavy precipitation, and heavy snowfalls. We employed the original method using the Weather Extremity Index derived from return periods of values of relevant meteorological variables in the affected area. Each event is characterized not only by the areal extremeness quantified with the index but also by the spatial extent and duration. In the

The acceleration of carrier gas to particles in the De-Laval-Type supersonic nozzle was strongly dependent on the characteristics of flow field, as well as the densities and the size of the particles.

Abstract:
Pyroelectric energy conversion offers a novel, direct energy-conversion technology by transforming time-dependent temperature directly into electricity. It makes use of the pyroelectric effect to create a flow of charge to or from the surface of a material as a result of heating or cooling. However, existing pyroelectric energy converter can only operate at low frequency due to relatively low heat transfer rate between the pyroelectric materials and the working fluid subjected to oscillatory fluid flow between hot and cold sources. On the other hand, energy transfer by thermal radiation betwee

Abstract In this study, finite element models are used to simulate the impact of porous WC-Co and Al particles cold sprayed onto substrates of the same materials. Effects of high strain rate, heat generation due to plasticity, interfacial friction, heat transfer, and material damage and failure are taken into account as are differences in the initial kinetic energy and strength of the materials. It was found that the influence of porosity increases with impact velocity and that the pores channel stress waves in unique ways not observed for solid particles.

In this study, three-dimensional numerical simulations are performed to investigate heat transfer enhancement in multi-harmonic micro-scale wavy channels. The focus is on the influence of channel surface-topography, modeled as multi-harmonic sinusoidal waves of square cross-sectional area, on the enhancing mechanisms. A single-wave device of 0.5 mm × 0.5 mm × 20 mm length, is used as baseline, and new designs are built with harmonic-type surfaces. The channel is enclosed by a solid block, with the bottom surface within the sinusoidal region being exposed to a 47 W/cm2 heat flux. The numerical

Cases of death during heat waves are most commonly due to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, with the main contribution from the negative effect of heat on the cardiovascular system. In an attempt to control the body temperature, the body’s natural instinct is to circulate large quantities of blood to the skin. However while trying to protect itself from overheating, the body actually harms itself by inducing extra strain on the heart. This excess strain has the potential to trigger a cardiac event in those with chronic health problems, such as the elderly. Those in the U.S.A. between th

Abstract:
The dynamic behaviors of tubes of a heat exchanger are frequently affected by the existence of local flaw. These tubes are worn from the hot-cold fluid shock waves. This local defect may alter the tube dynamics and introduce mode localization in the periodically arranged tube array. The variation of the dynamic characteristics of a component cooling water heat exchanger with wear tubes in cross-flow is investigated in this study. Periodically coupled cooling tubes are used to approximate a heat exchanger. Each tube is considered to be coupled to adjacent tubes through the squeezed water film i

Abstract:
Abstract Thermoacoustics (TA) deals with the conversion of heat into sound and vice versa. The device that transfers energy from a low temperature reservoir to a high temperature one by utilizing acoustic work is called TA cooler (TAC). The main components of a typical TA device are a resonator, a regenerator (stack of parallel plates) and two heat exchangers. The thermoacoustic phenomenon takes place in the stack when a nonzero temperature gradient imposed along the regenerator (i.e. parallel to the direction of the sound wave propagation) interacts with the sound wave oscillations.

Basically, continuous and pinpointed selection for rapid growth in broilers has led to higher oxygen demand and consequently to more frequent manifestation of an inherent potential cardiopulmonary incapability to sufficiently oxygenate the arterial blood.
