The objective of this research is to develop a low-order heat transfer model that can rapidly predict the deposition temperature during friction surfacing. This is motivated by the need for tools that can help select process ...

Direct Contact Condensation (DCC) transfers heat to a process fluid by directly injecting a high-pressure vapor into a subcooled liquid stream. Direct contact condensers have a smaller overall footprint compared to traditional ...

Concentrating solar power technologies is an evolving electrical power production tech­ nology that utilize multiple parabolic trough or a heliostat field to collect renewable energy thermally for driving thermodynamic ...
