CFD Analysis of Heat Transfer Enhancement in a Circular Pipe Flow by Swirl Flow
Abstract: Heat transfer enhancement techniques are very important to save more energy by using optimal energy sources. Heat transfer rate depends upon different parameters like Reynolds number, properties of fluid, nature of surface, mass flow rate, velocity, temperature and pressure. Many techniques are used for heat transfer enhancement in which swirl flow devices are effective. For enhancement of heat transfer, smooth pipe with tangentially injected swirl flow is better option than …

An Institution-based Cross-sectional Study on Magnitude and Factors Affecting Communication on Sexual and Reproductive Health Issues with Their Parents among Secondary and Preparatory School Students in Gimbi Town, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia, 2015
Abstract: Inadequate reproductive health knowledge has been identified as one of the underlying reasons for poor sexual decision-making and risky behavior among young people. Parent-young people’s communication regarding sexuality and reproductive health is an important and effective means of encouraging young people to adopt, responsible, sexual and reproductive behaviors. Yet, the status of the communication level is not well investigated and literatures recommended further studies on parent-young people’s communication. Therefore, the …

Experimental Investigation of Overall Heat Transfer Coefficientin Drop wise Condensation
Abstract: The experiments are performed to study the heat transfer characteristics over a drop wise condensation. The phenomenon of drop wise condensation is in which the condensate forms into drops rather than covering the entire cooling surface with a continuous film. In drop wise condensation, heat transfer coefficient produced is 2 to 10 times greater than those produced by film wise condensation. Hence drop wise condensation is desirable as it is …
