Design of a Water-Cooling System for the Inside Roof of 20t Electric Arc Furnace for Oxygen Blow Decarburization Using CFD Analysis
Abstract: An electric arc furnace (EAF) roof usually works at high temperature for a long time, undergoes not only heat radiations from electric arc, molten metal, and lining of high temperature, but also is washed and affected by chemical erosion due to high temperature and gas flow. In addition, it might be eroded by slag with high temperature. In， inside roof of EAF is more severely affected by heat load than …

Fluent Simulation & Analysis of Earth Heat Exchanger with Air as a Cooling Medium
Abstract: Because of the temperatures differential between the environment and the subsurface, an Earth Air Tube Heat Exchanger (EATHE) uses the thermal energy of the ground for air conditioners in the winter and air cooling in the summer. Everyone can lower the amount of energy needed for space heating or cooling with the aid of EATHE. However, it is challenging to create precise energy simulations and designs for calculating surface heat …

Liquid-Cooled Battery Thermal Management System: A Numerical Investigation of Effect of Coolant Path and Flow Rate Optimization
Abstract: Battery thermal management system (BTMS) is crucial for ensuring the safety and performance of battery packs in electric vehicles. Liquid cooling is one of the most effective methods for BTMS, but the choice of coolant, fluid path and its flow rate can affect the heat transfer efficiency and the pressure drop. In this paper, a numerical simulation of a liquid-cooled BTMS using three designs with water as a coolant has …

Estimation of Soil Erosion Using GIS in Pune District, Maharashtra
Abstract: The Varandha Ghats pans approximately 14.62 km 2 , where changes in temperature, vegetation, topography, and soil characteristics are causing continuous soil erosion. Catchment heterogeneity and climatic variations cause spatial variability in hydrological processes. Differences in land use, soil type, topography, and rainfall patterns influence how water moves and accumulates across regions, resulting in diverse hydrological responses. This complexity challenges accurate modeling and effective water resource management strategies across variable …
