Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Aspect Ratio Effect on Aerodynamic Performance of Naca 4415 Airfoil Section at Low Reynolds Number(Assoc Mechanical Engineers Technicians Slovenia, 2025) Uemuetlue, Hatice Cansu Ayaz; Kiral, Zeki; Karadeniz, Ziya HaktanIn this study, the effect of aspect ratio on the aerodynamic coefficients is investigated for a NACA 4415 airfoil profile. Four different aspect ratios which are 3, 5, 7, and 9 are evaluated with the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations and the experiments. The CFD studies are performed using a threedimensional (3D) computational domain and by using the k-omega shear stress transport (SST) turbulence model for turbulence calculations. The measurements of the aerodynamic forces are carried out in open jet type wind tunnel using a three-component balance. CFD and experimental studies are performed at angles of attack from 0 degrees to 25 degrees and Reynolds number 85<middle dot>103. The results show that as the aspect ratio increases, separation points move towards the leading edge of the airfoil and the stall angle reduces. Furthermore, it is observed that the lift coefficients increase with the increasing aspect ratio. The results obtained indicate that there is a harmony between the experimental data and the CFD solutions.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Investigation of Flow and Heat Transfer Performance of Gyroid Structure as Porous Media(Turkish Soc Thermal Sciences Technology, 2024) Genc, Alper Mete; Karadeniz, Ziya HaktanThere are active and passive methods used to improve heat transfer. One of the passive methods is utilising porous media with high heat transfer surface area. Porous media are divided into two groups: regular and irregular structures. One of the regular structures is triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS), which have been studied quite frequently recently. In this study, heat transfer and flow analysis of a Gyroid geometry, one of the most used TPMS in the literature, is investigated numerically considering the conjugate heat transfer conditions. A single porosity is considered (epsilon = 0.6), and aluminium, ceramic and PLA are selected for the heat exchanger material to examine the temperature change in the heat exchanger. To understand the different flow characteristics, Reynolds numbers are assumed to be 19.12, 95.61 and 172.09. The fluid inlet temperature is assumed to be constant at 298.15 K, and the initial temperature of the heat exchanger is assumed to be constant at 278.15 K to be consistent with the regenerative heat recovery temperature difference in ventilation standards. Nusselt numbers under different operating conditions are compared, and it is the ceramic material with low thermal diffusivity is at the highest level despite its low thermal conductivity. At the highest Reynolds number, it provided approximately 6% better heat transfer than the aluminium heat exchanger.Article Citation - Scopus: 21The Developing Flow Characteristics of Water - Ethylene Glycol Mixture Based Fe3o4 Nanofluids in Eccentric Annular Ducts in Low Temperature Applications(Elsevier, 2022) Çobanoğlu, Nur; Banisharif, Alireza; Estelle, Patrice; Karadeniz, Ziya HaktanNatural circulation loops with double pipe heat exchangers at heating and cooling ends have a potential to be used in the refrigeration systems as an alternative to suction line heat exchangers. The heat transfer capability of such natural circulation loops depends on the geometrical parameters as well as thermophysical properties of the working fluid. This study aims to investigate the effect of water-ethylene glycol mixture based Fe3O4 nanofluids (0.01, 0.05 and 0.1 vol.%) on the annular flow propagation and heat transfer in the annuli of double pipe heat exchanger at low pressure side of the refrigeration cycle. In addition to increased non-dimensional velocity values due to the lower viscosity and higher non-dimensional temperature values with expanded temperature gradient, improved heat transfer by nanofluids shows that they can be used as secondary heat transfer fluids at low-pressure side in refrigeration systems. Although the maximum transferred (13.6% improvement compared to base fluid) heat observed for the highest concentration, the nanofluids with smallest concentration has the minimum pressure drop value (25% reduction compared to base fluid) and the highest performance evaluation criteria (PEC) value (PEC = 1.08) with tiny increase in exergy destruction (1.45% compared to base fluid)Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 15Assessment and Improvement of Indoor Environmental Quality in a Primary School(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2017) Ekren, Orhan; Karadeniz, Ziya Haktan; Atmaca, İbrahim; Ugranlı Çiçek, Tuğba; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Toksoy, MacitThis study reports levels of indoor environmental quality variables before and after installation of heat recovery ventilation in a primary school located in an urban area in Izmir, Turkey. A CO2-based modeling was performed to determine the required flow rates that would comply with an international ventilation standard, followed by computational fluid dynamics modeling for best airflow distribution in a classroom. Temperature, CO2, PM2.5, and total volatile organic compounds were found at undesired levels, among which relative humidity, CO2, and PM2.5 were improved after the intervention. Reductions in the mean and maximum concentrations were 29% and 68% for CO2 and 29% and 46% for PM2.5. This intervention study was a part of the city-wide main project that aimed to increase awareness of the students and their families, teachers, and staff regarding importance of indoor environmental quality in both at school and home due to its possible effects on children's health and academic performance, one of the major challenges of today's societies all around the globe.
