Application of a Centralized Solar Powered Air-conditioning System for an Engineering College Building in Kolkata Region
Abstract: Adaptive cooling technique has been proposed as an energy efficient strategy for a centralized HVAC system in summer environment. Energy consumption is basically defined as an effort to minimize unnecessary energy consumption as by-product of the required energy consumption or to minimize the gap between required energy consumption and final energy consumption. There is a developing, state government trend of installing renewable energy in Kolkata. One area of interest is …

Numerical Study on Thermal Performance Assessment of a Compact Heat Exchanger Equipped with Two Broken Twisted Strips
Abstract: Twisted strips are a widely used technique for heat transfer enhancement. In the present study, it proposed that two broken twisted strips aiming at achieving good thermohydraulic performance. Effects of the two broken twisted strips (BTS) on the heat transfer, friction factor and thermal performance factor behaviours in a heat exchanger are reported along with smooth duct. The computations are based on the finite volume method with the SIMPLE algorithm …
