The Effect of Fluid Properties on the Physical Behavior of Adiabatic Annular Two-Phase Flow
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2003)Three separate experimental facilities were used to explore the mechanics of both vertical and horizontal annular flow. The first facility described was a low-pressure two- phase refrigerant facility with a horizontal, ... -
The Effect of Surface Characteristics on Contact Line Motion in Immersion Lithography
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2005)Optical lithography has been the technology of choice in the semiconductor industry for decades. As the industry progresses, new methods are sought to manufacture smaller and faster integrated circuits. One possible ... -
Electrical Demand Reduction in Refrigerated Warehouses
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1998)Electric utilities are currently searching for ways to meet the ever-increasing demand for electricity. One available option involves reducing customer demand during the daytime and during summer months, when demand ... -
Electrical Utility Interest in Solar Energy Systems
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1995) -
The Energy Use Implications of Design Choices in Commercial Buildings
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1996)The process of designing a heating and cooling system for a commercial building usually proceeds from building design to design of an HVAC system that can meet the loads in the building. The purpose of this thesis is ... -
Environmental Requirements for Museums
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2000)Museums represent a unique class of indoor environments with environmental control requirements that are quite different than traditional occupant-based buildings. As caretakers of cultural and natural artifacts, ... -
Evaluation and Design of Absorption Power Cycles
(1991-12-12) -
Evaluation of Ground Coupled Heat Pumps for the State of Wisconsin
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1995) -
Experimental Investigation and Modeling of Inertance Tubes
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2004)Three models describing and predicting the inertance effect in inertance tubes for pulse tube refrigerators are presented in this thesis. All models take the inertance, the compliance, and the resistance associated ... -
Fluid Property Effects on Spray Cooling: An Experimental and Numerical Study
(University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2006)Spray cooling is a process where liquid is atomized into droplets and sprayed onto a surface that is hotter than the saturation temperature of the fluid. The droplets impact the surface and spread, causing a thin liquid ...
