Article Citation - WoS: 61Citation - Scopus: 66The Use of Metal Piece Additives To Enhance Heat Transfer Rate Through an Unconsolidated Adsorbent Bed(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Demir, Hasan; Mobedi, Moghtada; Ülkü, SemraThe effects of metal piece additives on effective thermal conductivity and diffusivity of an unconsolidated adsorbent bed in which adsorbent is silica gel were investigated. The metal piece additives were copper, brass, aluminum and stainless steel with two different sizes as 1.0-2.8 mm and 2.8-4.75 mm. The effective thermal conductivity and diffusivity of the mixed bed were predicted by comparison of the experimental results with the solution of dimensionless heat conduction equation for the bed. The performed experiments showed that the addition 15wt% of aluminum pieces with sizes between 1.0 and 2.8 mm enhances the effective thermal diffusivity and conductivity of a pure silica gel bed by 157% and 242%, respectively. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd and IIR.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 3Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the Bulk Thermal Stresses for Kraft Recovery Boiler Fireside Deposit Cleaning(Tappi Press, 2006) Özcan, Selçuk; Tran, HonghiRemoval of fireside deposits from the heat transfer tubes in kraft recovery boilers is carried out by sootblowing and occasionally "chill-and- blow" practices. During chill-and-blow, black liquor flow is reduced to rapidly cool the deposits.Thermal stresses generated in the deposit as a result of thermal shock can effectively weaken the deposit, facilitating its cleaning. For this study, we investigated the mechanical weakening effect of thermal stresses generated by the transient temperature gradients. We quantified the mechanical weakening effect due to thermal shock by measuring the decrease in biaxial flexure strength of a preheated sodium chloride disk at various quenching times and surface heat transfer coefficients. We observed that the mechanical weakening occured by transient thermal stresses as well as crack propagation. Approximately 35% loss in biaxial flexure strength could be achieved at heat transfer coefficients above 3.3·103 W/m 2K, and at quenching durations above 40 s.
