Solar radiation exergy and quality performance for Iraq and Turkey
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2018)
The present study is conducted with two primary objectives: First, a new formulation for the maximum efficiency of the solar radiation conversion is developed by considering the radiative energy transfer between two surfaces ...
Cascaded thermodynamic and environmental analyses of energy generation modalities of a high-performance building based on real-time measurements
(MDPI AG, 2020-04)
This study presents cascaded thermodynamic and environmental analyses of a high-performance academic building. Five different energy efficiency measures and operation scenarios are evaluated based on the actual measurements ...
Near-field radiative transfer in spectrally tunable double-layer phonon-polaritonic metamaterials
(Elsevier, 2018-06)
Understanding of near-field radiative transfer is crucial for many advanced applications such as nanoscale energy harvesting, nano-manufacturing, thermal imaging, and radiative cooling. Near-field radiative transfer has ...
Near-field thermal emission between corrugated surfaces separated by nano-gaps
(Elsevier, 2015)
Near-field thermal radiation with its many potential applications in different fields requires a thorough understanding for the development of new devices. In this paper, we report that near-field thermal emission between ...
A retrospective view on‘‘3-dimensional radiation in absorbing, emitting and scattering media using discrete-ordinates approximation’’by J.S.Truelove
(Elsevier, 2010-06)
Discrete-ordinates (DO) approximations to the radiative transfer equation in three- dimensional enclosures have extensively been used during the last three decades. The 1988 paper by Truelove [1] is one of the pioneering ...
Plasmonic responses of metallic/dielectric core-shell nanoparticles on a dielectric substrate
(IOP Publishing, 2019-06)
The effect of material selection on the plasmonic response and local absorption are evaluated for core- shell nanoparticles placed over a BK7 glass substrate. Eight different core-shell pairs are studied using the vectorized ...
Credible intervals for nanoparticle characteristics
(Elsevier, 2012-01)
Solving the inverse problem of nanoparticle characterization has the potential to advance science and benefit society. While considerable progress has been made within a framework based on the scattering of surface ...
Coexistence of multiple regimes for near-field thermal radiation between two layers supporting surface phonon polaritons in the infrared
(American Physical Society, 2011)
We demonstrate the coexistence of different near-field thermal radiation regimes between two layers supporting surface phonon polaritons (SPhPs) in the infrared. These regimes existwhen the distance of separation between ...
The effect of nanoparticle type and nanoparticle mass fraction on heat transfer enhancement in pool boiling
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
Determining the heat transfer performance with nanofluids is of cardinal importance in the utilization of nanofluids in thermal systems. This study presents an experimental investigation on nucleate pool boiling heat ...
Experimental study on heat transfer of multi-walled carbon nanotubes/water nanofluids in horizontal microtubes
(ASME, 2016)
In this study, heat transfer characteristics of multi-walled carbon nanotube based nanofluids were investigated in horizontal microtubes with outer and inner diameters of ∼1067 and ∼889 μm, respectively. Carbon nanotubes ...
