An evaluation of energy efficiency measures in a Turkish campus building for thermal comfort and economic risk
(International Building Performance Simulation Association, 2015)
As new and retrofitted Turkish buildings adopt stateof-the-art energy efficiency measures, hidden risks associated with compromised thermal comfort and disappointing returns on investment could go unnoticed unless a building ...
Local density of electromagnetic states within a nanometric gap formed between two thin films supporting surface phonon polaritons
(AIP Publishing, 2010)
We present a detailed physical analysis of the near-field thermal radiation spectrum emitted by a silicon carbide (SiC) film when another nonemitting SiC layer is brought in close proximity. This is accomplished via the ...
Increasing the stability of nanofluids with cavitating flows in micro orifices
(AIP, 2016)
One of the most critical challenges for nanofluids in practical applications is related to their stability and reusability since a gradual agglomeration of nanoparticles in nanofluids occurs with time and is accelerated ...
Near to far-field thermal emission by nanoparticles on a substrate: Evaluation of effective medium theory
(The Optical Society, 2014)
We study the near to far-field thermal emission of a thin SiC film with/without nanospheres placed upon it. We show that Effective Medium Theorem produces questionable results when approximating emission and absorption ...
Integrated engineering and architecture for the energy efficient academic buildings
(International Building Performance Simulation Association, 2015-12)
In this paper, we outline a comprehensive and integrated collaboration between engineering and architecture team to build an energy efficient building. Within the framework of the EU FP7 project, titled NEED4B, we have ...
Enhancing local absorption within a gold nano-sphere on a dielectric surface under an AFM probe
(Elsevier, 2016-07)
This study considers enhancing localized absorption by a gold nanoparticle (NP) placed over a substrate where an atomic force microscope (AFM) tip is in close proximity of the particle. The gold NP and AFM tip are interacting ...
Special Issue on the Second International Workshop on Micro- and Nano-Scale Thermal Radiation
(Elsevier, 2015-06)
Micro- and nano-scale thermal radiation has become one of the fastest growing research areas because of advances in nanotechnology and the development of novel materials. The related research and development includes ...
The seventh international symposium on radiative transfer
(Elsevier, 2014-08)
This Special Issue of The Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer is based on the papers selected from the Seventh International Symposium on Radiative Transfer, which was held June 2013 in Kuşadası, ...
Entropy generation analysis of laminar flows of water-based nanofluids in horizontal minitubes under constant heat flux conditions
(MDPI AG, 2018-04)
During the last decade, second law analysis via entropy generation has become important in terms of entropy generation minimization (EGM), thermal engineering system design, irreversibility, and energy saving. In this ...
Effect of the probe location on the absorption by an array of gold nano-particles on a dielectric surface
(Elsevier, 2017)
Effect of silicon atomic force microscope probe position and particle spacing on the local absorption of an array of gold nanoparticles placed over a dielectric borosilicate glass surface are evaluated. An improved, ...
