Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13A General Expression for the Stagnant Thermal Conductivity of Stochastic and Periodic Structures(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2018) Bai, X.; Çelik, Hasan; Mobedi, Moghtada; Nakayama, AkiraA general expression has been obtained to estimate thermal conductivities of both stochastic and periodic structures with high-solid thermal conductivity. An air layer partially occupied by slanted circular rods of high-thermal conductivity was considered to derive the general expression. The thermal conductivity based on this general expression was compared against that obtained from detailed three-dimensional numerical calculations. A good agreement between two sets of results substantiates the validity of the general expression for evaluating the stagnant thermal conductivity of the periodic structures. Subsequently, this expression was averaged over a hemispherical solid angle to estimate the stagnant thermal conductivity for stochastic structures such as a metal foam. The resulting expression was found identical to the one obtained by Hsu et al., Krishnan et al., and Yang and Nakayama. Thus, the general expression can be used for both stochastic and periodic structures.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 19Effect of Pore To Throat Size Ratio on Interfacial Heat Transfer Coefficient of Porous Media(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2015) Özgümüş, Türküler; Mobedi, MoghtadaIn this study, the effects of pore to throat size ratio on the interfacial heat transfer coefficient for a periodic porous media containing inline array of rectangular rods are investigated, numerically. The continuity, Navier-Stokes, and energy equations are solved for the representative elementary volume (REV) of the porous media to obtain the microscopic velocity and temperature distributions in the voids between the rods. Based on the obtained microscopic temperature distributions, the interfacial convective heat transfer coefficients and the corresponding Nusselt numbers are computed. The study is performed for pore to throat size ratios between 1.63 and 7.46, porosities from 0.7 to 0.9, and Reynolds numbers between 1 and 100. It is found that in addition to porosity and Reynolds number, the parameter of pore to throat size ratio plays an important role on the heat transfer in porous media. For the low values of pore to throat size ratios (i.e., β = 1.63), Nusselt number increases with porosity while for the high values of pore to throat size ratios (i.e., β = 7.46), the opposite behavior is observed. Based on the obtained numerical results, a correlation for the determination of Nusselt number in terms of porosity, pore to throat size ratio, Reynolds and Prandtl numbers is proposed.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 9Effects of Thermal Dispersion on Heat Transfer in Cross-Flow Tubular Heat Exchangers(Springer Verlag, 2012) Sano, Y.; Kuwahara, F.; Mobedi, Moghtada; Nakayama, A.Effects of thermal dispersion on heat transfer and temperature field within cross-flow tubular heat exchangers are investigated both analytically and numerically, exploiting the volume averaging theory in porous media. Thermal dispersion caused by fluid mixing due to the presence of the obstacles plays an important role in enhancing heat transfer. Therefore, it must be taken into account for accurate estimations of the exit temperature and total heat transfer rate. It is shown that the thermal dispersion coefficient is inversely proportional to the interstitial heat transfer coefficient. The present analysis reveals that conventional estimations without consideration of the thermal dispersion result in errors in the fluid temperature development and underestimation of the total heat transfer rate. © Springer-Verlag 2011.Article Citation - WoS: 69Citation - Scopus: 82Development and Characterization of Tubular Composite Ceramic Membranes Using Natural Alumino-Silicates for Microfiltration Applications(Elsevier Ltd., 2015) Ghouil, Boudjemaa; Harabi, Abdelhamid; Bouzerara, Ferhat; Boudaira, Boukhemis; Guechi, Abdelkrim; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Figoli, AlbertoAbstract The preparation and characterization of porous tubular ceramic composite microfiltration membranes, using kaolins and calcium carbonates, were reported. The porous gehlenite (2CaO·Al2O3·SiO2) and anorthite (CaO·Al2O3·2SiO2) based ceramics were obtained by a solid state reaction. A ceramic support, sintered at 1250 C, within an average pore size of about 8 μm, a porosity of about 47% and a compression strength around 40 MPa, was prepared. The microfiltration active top layer was added on the support by a slip casting from clay powder suspensions. The novel microfiltration membrane layer has a thickness of 40 μm and an APS value of about 0.2 μm. This average pore size value was improved and considerably lower than those reported in the literature (0.5 μm). The performance of the novel microfiltration ceramic membrane was determined for evaluating both the water permeability and rejection. This proved the potentiality of the membrane produced in the microfiltration field. Moreover, the good adhesion, between the support and the active microfiltration layer membranes, was also proved. A correlation between microstructures of used powders and physicochemical properties was discussed. Finally, the origin of the unique two powder order membrane depositions was also proposed.
