    sitting in the hand of a person can show energy at work. Heat from the hand causes the cube to melt and change forms into liquids. To understand energy a little more, understanding work is important. Work is equal to force multiplied by distance that was applied to the object. In the end energy is the measurement of the possibility of an object working on another object. With knowing how energy works, it is possible to understand the Laws of Thermodynamics and how they relate to heat transfer. Within the Laws of Thermodynamics there are three ways that heat can be transferred. These ways are convection, conduction, and finally radiation. Convection deals with liquid heat transfers. Convections currents are used typically with liquids because the hotter fluids tend not to be as dense as the cooler parts, enabling for hotter fluids to rise above the cooler. Conduction does not flow like convection. When the heat is transferred, it is internally from the vibrations. Metals, copper being a great one, are the best conductors because they have more free electrons when compared to non-metals. Since electrons can carry heat and there is many free ones moving around in the structure of the metal, heat can spread with ease throughout the metal. Finally the last transfer is radiation.…

    The sphere gains heat by convection from the fluid. With h_f the heat transfer coefficient heat gain from the fluid is Heat loss through the lead wires is modeled as explained earlier and is given by The temperature of the sensor is determined by equating heat gain by convection to heat loss by conduction and radiation. Thus, we have Thus we get The fluid temperature T_f may then be estimated with the measured values of T_t,T_w 〖and T〗_amb as Example 5. 3 A sensor in the form of a…

    Double diffusive convection phenomenon occurs in situations where flow is driven by solutal gradients apart from thermal gradients. Present days in industrial processes like food processing, drying, chemical vapour deposition etc. the nature of fluid flow with in the process chambers largely governs the outcome. Thus research on double diffusive convection flows in relations to various applications in many mechanical and chemical engineering industries and also in fields like oceanography,…

    conventional SAH. Saravanakumar et al.cite{saravanakumar2010forced} experimentally analyzed a FP-SAH with various SHS materials especially for vegetable drying purpose. Gravel with iron scraps was noted as a better sensible heat storage among others. With this storage, the thermal efficiency of the system found to be increased from 10 to 20\%. Aissa et al.cite{aissa2012experimental} conducted an experimental study on a single glazed hybrid FP-SAH, with granite stone as a SHS using forced…

    like CPUs are susceptible to permanent damage if their working temperature exceed desired limit. Thus in order to prevent such a damage it is necessary to design a heat sink with proper geometry of fins which are used. This paper entails comparison between fins of rectangular shape which are most commonly used CPU heatsink shape. A comparative study between interrupted rectangular fins having through holes and uninterrupted fins as well as uninterrupted fins without through holes is carried out…

    The Seneca falls convention opened the eye of many women on how men had all the rights unlike women who had slim to none. Before the Convention, women were denied many opportunities for instance, the right to vote, education, and were basically treated like property. Leading this convention there were five very strong figures who influenced the beginning of a revolution called the Women’s Right Movement. Therefore, the Women’s Convection at Seneca falls was what set the chain of events that led…

    The average heat transfer coefficient for without notched fin is 8.3887 W/m2K whereas for 20% notched fins it is 9.8139 W/m2K. Also the copper gives more heat transfer rate than aluminum plate. Copper plate gives better heat transfer rate than aluminum plate. S. M. Wange, R. M. Metkar did “Computational Analysis of Inverted Notched Fin Arrays Dissipating Heat by Natural Convection” [8]. Experimentation is done for four different cases of inverted notch fin arrays. For…
