Article Citation - WoS: 357Citation - Scopus: 385Effect of Aspect Ratio on Entropy Generation in a Rectangular Cavity With Differentially Heated Vertical Walls(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Gediz İliş, Gamze; Mobedi, Moghtada; Sunden, BengtIn the present study, entropy generation in rectangular cavities with the same area but different aspect ratios is numerically investigated. The vertical walls of the cavities are at different constant temperatures while the horizontal walls are adiabatic. Heat transfer between vertical walls occurs by laminar natural convection. Based on the obtained dimensionless velocity and temperature values, the distributions of local entropy generation due to heat transfer and fluid friction, the local Bejan number and local entropy generation number are determined and related maps are plotted. The variation of the total entropy generation and average Bejan number for the whole cavity volume at different aspect ratios for different values of the Rayleigh number and irreversibility distribution ratio are also evaluated. It is found that for a cavity with high value of Rayleigh number (i.e., Ra = 105), the total entropy generation due to fluid friction and total entropy generation number increase with increasing aspect ratio, attain a maximum and then decrease. The present results are compared with reported solutions and excellent agreement is observed. The study is performed for 102 < Ra < 105, 10- 4 < φ{symbol} < 10- 2, and Pr = 0.7.Article Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 38Fully Developed Forced Convection in a Parallel Plate Channel With a Centered Porous Layer(Springer Verlag, 2012) Çekmer, Özgür; Mobedi, Moghtada; Özerdem, Barış; Pop, IoanIn this study, fully developed heat and fluid flow in a parallel plate channel partially filled with porous layer is analyzed both analytically and numerically. The porous layer is located at the center of the channel and uniform heat flux is applied at the walls. The heat and fluid flow equations for clear fluid and porous regions are separately solved. Continues shear stress and heat flux conditions at the interface are used to determine the interface velocity and temperature. The velocity and temperature profiles in the channel for different values of Darcy number, thermal conductivity ratio, and porous layer thickness are plotted and discussed. The values of Nusselt number and friction factor of a fully clear fluid channel (Nu cl = 4. 12 and fRe cl = 24) are used to define heat transfer increment ratio (ε th = Nu p/Nu cl)and pressure drop increment ratio (ε p = f Re p/f Re cl) and observe the effects of an inserted porous layer on the increase of heat transfer and pressure drop. The heat transfer and pressure drop increment ratios are used to define an overall performance (ε = ε th/ε p) to evaluate overall benefits of an inserted porous layer in a parallel plate channel. The obtained results showed that for a partially porous filled channel, the value of ε is highly influenced from Darcy number, but it is not affected from thermal conductivity ratio (k r) when k r > 2. For a fully porous material filled channel, the value of ε is considerably affected from thermal conductivity ratio as the porous medium is in contact with the channel walls.Conference Object Energy Losses From Outdoor Located Air Handling Unit and Connection Duct(Universita degli Studi di Padova, 2007) Erdoğmuş, Abdullah Berkan; Mobedi, Moghtada; Özerdem, BarışIn the present study, energy losses due to heat transmission and air leakage from outdoor located air handling unit and connection duct are investigated based on EN 1886 and NEN-EN 1507 standard. The EN 1886 standard classifies air handling unit according to heat transmission and air leakage, while NEN-EN 1507 standard specify air leakages of rectangular ducts. In this study, air leakage and heat transmission fluxes for three cities in different regions of Turkey are determined and the economical value of energy losses for a building located in the city of Izmir and services 24 hours is calculated. The ambient air temperatures are taken from Turkish State Meteorological Service. The daily average values are considered for ambient temperature. The energy losses are determined for the variable and constant supply temperatures. Tables and charts are provided to show the variation of energy losses due to transmission and air leakage for the whole year. The total amounts of heat transmission and air leakage energy losses for different classes of air handling unit and connection duct are compared and discussed.Letter Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3A Comment on Change of Nusselt Number Sign in a Channel Flow Filled by a Fluid-Saturated Porous Medium With Constant Heat Flux Boundary Conditions(Springer Verlag, 2013) Uçar, Eren; Mobedi, Moghtada; Özerdem, Barış; Pop, IoanThe aim of this Letter is to show that, the Nusselt number sign might be changed without changing of heat transfer direction at the wall of channels, even for flows without viscous dissipation. The sign of the Nusselt number is important for deciding on heat transfer direction at a solid wall. The change of the Nusselt number signmay be interpreted as the change of the direction of the heat transfer at a wall. There are studies, such as internal heat and fluid flow in a channel with viscous dissipation (Hung and Tso 2008, 2009; Mitrovic and Maletic 2007; Mobedi et al. 2010) or with an asymmetric heat flux boundary conditions (Cekmer et al. 2011) in which the sign of the wall Nusselt number changes. Nield and Kuznetsov (2008) studied in a very interesting paper the counter flow in a channel whose boundaries are asymmetrically heated and is consisted of two porous layers with different permeability values. These authors showed that even the sign of an overall Nusselt number defined based on the average wall temperatures and heat fluxes, and the mean permeability values of the two porous layers can also be changed and it can take negative values when a strong asymmetry heat flux is imposed to the boundaries. The change of Nusselt number sign at the walls are also observed in other studies of Kuznetsov (Kuznetsov and Nield 2010; Xiong and Kuznetsov 2000).Master Thesis Investigation of Flow Through a Semi Axial Centrifugal Pump(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2006) Karamanoğlu, Yılmaz; Mobedi, Moghtada; Mobedi, MoghtadaThe aim of present study is to perform a numerical work to investigate flow inside a semi axial centrifugal pump. The results of the study can be used to improve the design of the pump.The Navier Stokes equations with appropriate boundary conditions are solved for a 3 dimensional rotating geometry. To solve the governing equations, Fluent program is used. Fluent is a commercial CFD program, which has been developed based on the finite volume method. The mesh for the flow volume is created by Gambit.The k -e turbulence model is used to handle the turbulence inside the flow. Obtained results are compared with experimental test results. An acceptable agreement between the numerical and experimental results is observed.Based on the obtained results, the velocity vectors, pressure distributions on impeller and diffuser blades and flow patterns are plotted for three different flow rates.The necessary discussions are performed for these results. It is observed that the design of the impeller provides a regular flow inside the channel; however some vortexes are observed in the channel between the diffuser blades.The effect of the surface roughness is also investigated and the problem is solved for four different roughness values (0, 50, 100 and 250 m). It is found that the roughness of the surface affects the characteristic curves of the pump. By increasing the roughness, the head and efficiency of the pump decrease however the consumed power is almost constant.Article Citation - WoS: 36Citation - Scopus: 37Visualization of Heat Flow Using Bejan's Heatline Due To Natural Convection of Water Near 4 °c in Thick Walled Porous Cavity(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Varol, Yasin; Öztop, Hakan Fehmi; Mobedi, Moghtada; Pop, IoanA numerical study on natural convection heat transfer of cold water near 4 °C in a thick bottom walled cavity filled with a porous medium has been performed. It is assumed that the cavity is isothermally heated from the outside of the thick bottom wall and cooled from ceiling. The finite-difference method has been used to solve the governing partial differential equations of heat and fluid flow. Effects of thermal conductivity ratio, Rayleigh number and bottom wall thickness on heat transfer from the bottom to the ceiling have been studied. The heatline visualization technique has been used to demonstrate the path of heat transport through the enclosure. Moreover, streamlines and isotherms have been used to present fluid flow and temperature distributions. The obtained results show that multiple circulation cells are formed in the cavity and the local Nusselt numbers at the bottom wall and solid-fluid interface are highly affected by formed cells. The increase of Rayleigh number and thermal conductivity ratio increases heat transfer through the cavity. However, the increase of thickness of the bottom wall reduces the mean Nusselt number. Almost one-dimensional conduction heat transfer is observed in the solid bottom wall of the cavity. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

The isotherms of the zeolite 13X-water pair were obtained by collecting pressure versus time data and applying ideal gas law. The effective diffusivity of the pair was calculated by using long term analytical solution of mass diffusivity based on Fick's law. The experimental study showed that the adsorption capacity of zeolite 13X-water pair was 23% (kg/kg), 21% (kg/kg) and 19% (kg/kg) when the adsorption temperature was 35, 45 and 60 °C respectively for the desorption temperature of 90 °C. Furthermore, the adsorption capacity increased from 22% (kg/kg) to 24% (kg/kg) when the desorption temperature was increased from 90 °C to 150 °C. It was observed that the present adsorption equilibrium results were compatible with the reported results in the literature. The mass diffusivity of the pair was found in the range of 4 × 10-9-6 × 10-8 m2/s for the long time period when the initial adsorptive pressure was 2000 Pa. The effective mass diffusivity depends on concentration and it was decreased with increasing adsorbate concentration.Doctoral Thesis An Experimental and Numerical Study on Interfacial Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient and Thermal Dispersion Conductivity of a Periodic Porous Medium Under Mixed Convection Heat Transfer(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2017) Çelik, Hasan; Özkol, Ünver; Mobedi, MoghtadaThe need on effective heat transfer enhancement has been increasing day by day. Because of that, researchers/engineers who work on heat transfer are required to obtain new techniques to address raising accumulation of heat transfer. Heat transfer can be enhanced by active and passive methods and passive methods are mostly chosen, as no external power input is required. Porous media is one of the most popular passive heat transfer techniques. Porous media can be divided into periodic and stochastic structures. In this thesis, the analysis of heat and fluid flow in 2D periodic structure and 3D aluminum and ceramic foam structures under mixed and forced convection heat transfer are studied. The governing equations are solved at pore scale and volume-averaged transport parameters as permeability, inertia coefficient, interfacial heat transfer coefficient and thermal dispersion are obtained by using volume averaging of the obtained pore scale velocity, pressure and temperature. For the change of periodic structure, the interfacial heat transfer coefficient and thermal dispersion with respect to Reynolds, Richardson and porosity under mixed convection are studied probably for the first time in literature. For foam structure, the changes of permeability, inertia coefficient, interfacial heat transfer coefficient and thermal dispersion with respect to Re are discussed. The determination of thermal dispersion by using tomography method is probably reported for the first time. For 2D periodic structures, the interfacial convective heat transfer coefficient successfully found while for the thermal dispersion conductivity the Volume Averaging Technique fails for high Richardson numbers under mixed convection. Based on good agreement between the computational values of this study and reported correlation in literature, it is observed that the use of micro-tomography technique for determination of volume-averaged transport parameters yield satisfactory results if properly used. The comprehensive methods for inspection, verification and validation of the obtained computational results for 3D digitally generated foam are suggested.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11A Numerical Study on Determination of Volume Averaged Thermal Transport Properties of Metal Foam Structures Using X-Ray Microtomography Technique(Taylor & Francis, 2018) Çelik, Hasan; Mobedi, Moghtada; Nakayama, Akira; Özkol, ÜnverVolume averaged thermal transport properties of two metal foams with 10 and 20 PPI are obtained by using microtomography technique. The digital 3D structures of samples are generated in computer environment. The governing equations are solved for the entire domain and the volume averaged technique is used to determine interfacial heat transfer coefficient, longitudinal and transverse thermal dispersion conductivity. The study is performed for the pore scale Reynolds number from 100 to 600. The obtained results are within the ranges of the suggested correlations in literature. The present study supports the correlations suggested by Calmidi and Mahajan (2000) and Zhang et al. (2016).Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 24Forced Convection Heat Transfer Inside an Anisotropic Porous Channel With Oblique Principal Axes: Effect of Viscous Dissipation(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Mobedi, Moghtada; Çekmer, Özgür; Pop, IoanAn analytical study on laminar and fully developed forced convection heat transfer in a parallel-plate horizontal channel filled with an anisotropic permeability porous medium is performed. The principal axis of the anisotropic porous medium is oriented from 0 to 90 degrees. A constant heat flux is applied on the outer wall of the channel. Both clear (Newtonian) fluid and Darcy viscous dissipations are considered in the energy equation. Directional permeability ratio parameter A* is defined to combine both the effect of the dimensionless permeability ratio parameter K*=(K 1/K2) and orientation angle φ into one parameter. The effects of the parameter A*, the Darcy number Da and the modified Brinkman number Br* on the heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics in the channels are investigated and presented in graphs. The obtained results show that the parameters A*, Da and Br* have strong effects on the dimensionless normalized velocity and temperature profiles as well as on the Nusselt number. It is found that for a particular value of A*, called as critical value Acr*, the external heat applied to the surface of the channel is balanced by the internal heat generation due to viscous dissipation and the bulk mean temperature approaches the wall temperature. Hence, the Nusselt number approaches infinity for the critical values A cr*. © 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
