Effect of temperature elevation of inlet air on performance of a membrane humidifier for PEMFC vehicle application was investigated both experimentally and numerically. A shell-and-tube typed gas-to-gas humidifier with Nafion membrane was tested. The experimental result showed that water transfer varies nonlinearly with the temperature elevation. Numerical analysis based on detailed modeling is also conducted on a single tube geometry to explain this nonlinear behavior. The simulation revealed that the local water flux varies nolineary and dramatically along the tube. Analysis is based on competing role of temperature increase and relative humidity decrease, both of which seriously affect water conductivity of the membrane.

This paper suggests a DCS (Distributed Control System) model for steam temperature system of the thermal power plant. The model calculated within sectional range is linear. In order to calculate mathematical models, the system is partitioned into two or three sectors according to its thermal conditions, that is, saturated water/steam and superheating state. It is divided into three sections; water supply, steam generation and steam heating loop. The steam heating loop is called 'superheater' or steam temperature system. Water spray supply is the control input. A first order linear model is extracted. For linear approach, sectional linearization is achieved. Modeling methodology is a decomposition-synthetic technique. Superheater is composed of several tube-blocks. For this block, linear input-output model is to be calculated. Each tiny model has its transfer function. By expanding these block models to total system, synthetic DCS linear models are derived. Control instrument include/exclude models are also considered. The resultant models include thermal combustion conditions, and applicable to practical plant engineering field.

The rheological Voperties of biopolymers produced by Bacilli sp. K-1 and its mutant strains(KM-21, KM-83) were studied at the temperature ranges with 20∼80$^{\circ}C$, at the concenration of 2∼6%, at the pH ranges from 3.0 to 9.0 and at the shear rate of 9.3-930sec-1 The apparent viscosity of biopolymers was decreased with increasing shear rate, and thereby biopolymers showed pseudoplastic characteristics. It was found that the apparent viscosity models respected 19 temperature, concentration and both temperature and concentration were expressed by Arrhenius Model, Exponential Model and combined of the above two Models. Therefore, the apparent viscosity could be predictable by Arrhenius and Exponential Models with high R2.

Presence of eyelid on anterior ocular surface and its thermal effects play significant role in maintaining eye temperature. In most of the literatures of thermal modeling in human eye, the eyelid is not considered as an eye component. In this paper, finite element model is developed to investigate the thermal effects of eyelid closure and opening in human eye. Based on different properties and parameter values reported in literatures, the bio-heat transfer process is simulated and compared with experimental results in steady and transient state cases. The sensitivity analysis using various ambient temperatures, evaporation rates, blood temperatures and lens thermal conductivities is carried out. The temperature values so obtained in open eye show a good agreement with past results. The closure of eyelid is found to increase/decrease the eye temperature significantly than its opening, when the parameter values are considered to be at extreme.

The present paper is devoted to the modeling method based on an averaging approach for thermal analysis of microchannel heat sinks subjected to the uniform wall temperature condition. Solutions for velocity and temperature distributions are presented using the averaging approach. When the aspect ratio of the microchannel is higher than 1, these solutions accurately evaluate thermal resistances of heat sinks. Asymptotic solutions for velocity and temperature distributions at the high-aspect-ratio limit are alsopresented by using the scale analysis. Asymptotic solutions are simple, but shown to predict thermal resistances accurately when the aspect ratio is higher than 10. The effects of the aspect ratio and the porosity on the friction factor and the Nusselt number are presented. Characteristics of the thermal resistance of microchannel heat sinks are also discussed.

This paper is dedicated to the thermoelastic modeling and dynamic response of the rotating blades made of functionally graded ceramic-metal based materials. The blades modeled as non-uniform thin walled beams fixed at the hub with various selected values of setting angles and pre-twisted angles. In this study, the blade is rotating with a constant angular velocity and exposed to a steady temperature field as well as external excitation. Moreover, the effect of the temperature gradient through the blade thickness is considered. Material properties are graded in the thickness direction of the blade according to the volume fraction power law distribution. The numerical results highlight the effects of the volume fraction, temperature gradient, taper ratio, setting angle and pre-twisted angle on the dynamic response of bending-bending coupled beam characteristics are provided for the case of a biconvex cross section and pertinent conclusions are outlined.

In the present study, the numerical simulation has been performed to investigate K-factor for temperature variation of working fluid in spray nozzle with orifice. The commercial CFD software, Fluent with the proper modeling was applied for analyzing the internal of the spray nozzle. Numerical result for K-factor at $20^{\circ}C$ agrees with the experimental result that it applied n=0.5 within about 7% error. The pressure drop inside nozzle is showed 20% passing swirler, 70% in the region between the outlet of swirler and the orifice and 10% at the outlet of orifice. As the operating pressure is increased, K-factor is decreased by effect of flow resistance at it's inlet before pass swirler. The temperature increase of working fluid reduced the flow rate according to reducing of density, and average 1.23% decrease is showed in the present research.

The paper presents a monitoring system for the cooling of distribution transformers. The suggested system is controlled by a microcontroller scheme. The system is designed to control the oil temperature. It gives a solution to improve the cooling system by adding a number of fans especially for indoor transformers that are placed in badly-ventilated rooms. Also, the paper includes an alarm system with the possibility of tripping the transformer if it is necessary. The monitoring system consists of acquisition temperature sensor, and on-site unit. The hardware and software of the on-site unit are demonstrated with sufficient illustrations. Small prototype is constructed in the laboratory. Some laboratory experiments are carried out for examining the designed circuit by using Proteus Virtual System Modeling as well as for testing the prototype monitoring system. Concerning this research point, a study is carried out to evaluate the economic feasibility. The results are recorded and associated with many recommendations that may be valuable to electrical distribution (utility) companies.

A semi-empirical approach to model the temperature effects on I-V characteristics of Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistors (CNTFETs) is proposed. The model includes two thermal parameters describing CNTFET behaviour in terms of saturation drain current and threshold voltage, whose values are extracted from the simulated and trans-characteristics of the device in different temperature conditions. Our results are compared with those of a numerical model online available, obtaining I-V characteristics comparable but with a lower CPU calculation time.

A method for simulating general characteristics and temperature characteristics of magnetizing fixture coil of the capacitor discharge impulse magnetizer-magnetizing fixture system using SPICE is presented. This method has been developed which can aid the design, understanding and inexpensive, time-saving of magnetizing circuit. As the detailed characteristics of magnetizing circuit can be obtained, the efficient design of the magnetizing circuit which produce desired magnet will be possible using our SPICE modeling. Especially, The knowledge of the temperature of the magnetizing fixture is very important to forecast the characteristics of the magnetizing circuits tinder different conditions. The capacitor voltage was not raised above 810[V] to protect the magnetizing fixture from excessive heating. The temperature estimation method uses multi-lumped model with equivalent thermal resistance and thermal capacitance.
