Abstract:
<em>Heat transfer enhancements are of several types and have the potential to reduce the size of the equipment. Several researchers have continued studying about this topic and made significant improvements in this field. These innovations have reduced cost and size of devices over time. Many devices are becoming affordable and efficient because of such studies. Hence the Heat Transfer Enhancement techniques are really an important factor in technology. Now an essential parameter in this heat transfer enhancement field is the thermal performance factor, which decides the transfer of heat rate

Abstract:
In this study, the thermal efficiency of a polymer collector with unglazed photovoltaic thermal (PVT) system was determined. Overall heat loss was estimated using the heat energy balance method. Based on the analysis, the heat removal factor of the PVT system was found to be 0.55. The thermal performance of the system was 47% during the zero reduce temperature. The unglazed PVT polymer collector could replace the conventional PVT collector, which encountered problems such as high cost, weighting issues, and corrosion.

A numerical study was performed to investigate the thermal performance characteristics of an enhanced tube heat exchanger fitted with punched delta-winglet vortex generators. Computational fluid dynamics modeling was applied using the k–ε renormalized group turbulence model. Benchmarking was performed using the results of the experimental study for a similar geometry. Attack angles of 30°, 50°, and 70° were used to investigate the heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of the enhanced tube. Flow conditions were considered in the turbulent region in the Reynolds number range of 9100 to

Abstract:
Heat transfer equipment has been used in many different domestic and industrial applications. There has been a concentrated effort to create a heat exchanger design that will reduce energy requirements while saving materials and other costs. Increasing the effective heat transfer surface area or creating turbulence are two common ways to improve heat transfer and hence lower thermal resistance. The thermal Performance Factor is the ratio of the difference in heat transfer rate to the difference in friction factor and serves as a metric to assess the efficiency of heat transfer enhancement tech

Continuously increasing demand for higher compute performance is pushing for improved advanced thermal solutions. In high performance computing (HPC) area, most of the end users deploy some sort of direct or indirect liquid cooling thermal solutions. But for the users who have air cooled data centers and air cooled thermal solutions are challenged to cool next generation higher Thermal Design Power (TDP) processors in the same platform form factor without changing environmental boundary conditions. This paper presents several different advanced air cooled technologies developed to cool high TD

Abstract:
Environmental conditions are considered an important factor influencing asphalt pavement performance. The addition of modifiers, both to the asphalt binder and the asphalt mixture, has attracted considerable attention in potentially alleviating environmentally induced pavement performance issues. Although many solutions have been developed, and some deployed, many asphalt pavements continue to prematurely fail due to environmental loading. The research reported herein investigates the synthetization and characterization of biobased Phase Change Materials (PCMs) and inclusion of Microencapsulat

Abstract:
The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) completed a total of 25 high friction surface treatment (HFST) projects across the state in 2018. This research study attempted to investigate the durability and performance of HFST in terms of its HFST-pavement system integrity and surface friction performance. Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the physical and mechanical properties of epoxy-bauxite mortar. Field inspections were carried out to identify site conditions and common early HFST distresses. Cyclic loading test and finite element method (FEM) analysis were performed to eva

Abstract:
The Performance Check (PC) method can be used for a simple check of the collector array performance of a solar thermal plant. It has been proposed recently as an input to a new ISO standard. This fact sheet provides an application of the PC method to large collector arrays. The goal of this fact sheet is to evaluate the methodology and provide practical insights for the application of the PC method.

Abstract:
A ubiquitous assumption in educational and psychological assessments is that student performance reflects ability or knowledge of what is being tested. Despite this assumption, in practice, student test performance reflects a mix of ability (knowledge) and effort. “Effort” refers to a range of motivational, dispositional, and energetic factors that contribute to student performance and that are distinct from ability (knowledge). Difficulties in operationally defining and measuring the degree of effort that students put forth in any assessment undermine the optimal use of assessment data. In th

Abstract:
This study pertains to the thermal variations caused by buried objects and their ramifications on soil phenomenology. A multitude of environmental conditions were investigated to observe the effect on thermal infrared sensor performance and detection capabilities. Correlations between these external variables and sensor contrast metrics enable determinable key factors responsible for sensor degradation. This document consists of two parts. The first part is a summary of data collected by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Engineer and Research and Development Center Cold Regions Research and En

Abstract:
One of the factors that affects energy consumption in buildings is the level of control that occupants have over their environment, as well as their adaptive behaviour. The aim of this study was to focus on the adaptive clothing behaviour pattern, and to analyse its impact on energy consumption when integrated into a dynamic energy prediction tool. A questionnaire survey was conducted in an office building to collect the occupant behaviour data. The occupant clothing levels and the window opening behaviour were integrated into the dynamic energy performance prediction software, IDA ICE. The re

Abstract:
Building energy and environmental efficiency is presently one of the most important research subjects due to global climate change and the actual geopolitical situation. Residential buildings should provide a comfortable environment for the occupants while they spend up to 90% of their life indoors. Moreover, a comfortable indoor environment should be provided efficiently and affordably. Thus, the examination of the correlated factors of buildings' energy efficiency and occupants' comfort is highly anticipated. This field can be analyzed using various methods, where computational simulations a

Abstract:
In the face of multifaceted challenges such as asphalt pavement deterioration and the introduction of new LTPPBind versions, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) initiated a pivotal research project focusing on three primary areas. First, the study examined the implications of Performance Grade (PG) binder selections on pavement performance using AASHTOware Pavement Mechanistic-Empirical (ME) Design V 2.6. It revealed that PG selections, particularly those made by LTPPBind V 3.1 Desktop and Online, significantly influenced pavement performance, impacting thermal and bottom-up crack

Abstract:
The necessity to improve broiler thermotolerance and live performance led to the following hypothesis: Appropriate comprehensive incubation treatments that include significant temperature management changes will promote angiogenesis and will improve acquisition of thermotolerance and carcass quality of heavy broilers through epigenetic adaptation. It was based on the following questions: 1. Can TM during embryogenesis of broilers induce a longer-lasting thermoregulatory memory (up to marketing age of 10 wk) that will improve acquisition of thermotolerance as well as increased breast meat yield

Abstract:
: The necessity to improve broiler thermotolerance and performance led to the following hypothesis: (a) thethermoregulatory-response threshold for heat production can be altered by thermal manipulation (TM) during incubation so as to improve the acquisition of thermotolerance in the post-hatch broiler;and (b) TM during embryogenesis will improve myoblast proliferation during the embryonic and post-hatch periods with subsequent enhanced muscle growth and meat production.
