A heat transfer - friction analogy for fluids at supercritical pressure

A new friction-heat transfer analogy for the prediction of heat transfer to turbulent fluids at supercritical pressure is presented. This analogy is based on the observation that the predominent events that determine the turbulent heat flux known as hot ejections and cold sweeps have different thermophysical properties. This observation is...

Dynamic behavior of heat pipe assisted annealing

A conventional annealing line uses a gas fired or electrical heating to heat and gas jets to cool the steel strip. The energy supplied during heating is lost in the cooling section. This energy has a lot of potential which can be recovered and used for the heating of the cold steel strip. Tata Steel, TU Delft and Drever International are...
