Thermo-hydraulic Performance of Annular-Finned Double-Pipe Heat Exchanger: Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Metallic and Polymer Composite Tube Wall Materials
Abstract: Double-pipe heat exchangers are central to the process industries — dependable, easily maintained, and straightforward to fabricate. Their conventional form relies on metallic tube materials, most often copper or stainless steel. Both metals conduct heat well, but they are dense, prone to corrosion in aggressive service environments, and increasingly at odds with the light-weighting goals that drive modern system design. Fibre-reinforced polymer composites, epoxy-based materials, and thermally enhanced thermoplastics such …

Improved Unified Power Quality Conditioner Design and Numerical Simulation for Power Quality Improvement
Abstract: Harmonic currents can distort the waveform voltage, resulting in a weak signal. There is also an increase in the number of loads requiring enough sinus tension to function properly. As electronic devices become more power-sensitive, people are becoming increasingly interested in power conditioning solutions. Therefore, if the amount of electricity being generated falls below a certain threshold, some type of compensation must be provided. Unified Power Quality Controller (UPQC) is …
