An Experimental Investigation towards Optimizing the Geometry and Material of Vortex Tube
Abstract: The main interest of this study is to know the effect of tube material having different thermal conductivities, on the performance of the vortex tube energy separation. Also, the study evaluates the optimal tube length to diameter ratio (L/D) and the effect of inlet pressure on the performance of the vortex. Experimentation consists of three different tube materials, Acrylic, Aluminium and Copper. By maintaining the tube diameter 20 mm as …

Analysis on Heat Recovery of an Engine Radiator using (CH2OH)2 Based Nanofluid Having TiO2 Nano Particles
Abstract: Automobile engine produces high amount of heat in the process of combustion. This internal heat rises the temperature of engine to very high level and can damage or seize the engine parts. Hence for the safety of engine components, it needs to run at much lower temperature, which is called engine working temperature. Ethylene glycol based nanofluids are used as the working fluids for the radiator and Titanium Dioxide, Silver, …

Study and Analysis of Solar Cabinet Dryer with used of Solar Selective Material
Abstract: Using solar cabinet dryer is in many agriculture places, cold industrial places where heated regions require. This setup is useful for high work output and much area cover-up. Usually use simple solar cabinet dryer which is no more sensitive for precision workplace because its performance is low. So, use mixed mode solar cabinet dryer which conclude multi tray adjustable, cover by maximum possible area, using heater and fan which responsible …
