Abstract Present study investigates application of cinque-faced rib roughening to improve the efficiency of solar air heaters (SAHs). Research focuses on a novel design, the cinque-faced rib-roughened triangular channel SAH (CFRTCSAH), which incorporates five-faced wire ribs on the absorber plate’s underside. By breaking down the laminar sublayer and enhancing flow separation and reattachment, - ribs significantly enhance heat transfer. It establishes a comprehensive theoretical model to analyze the thermal and hydraulic performance of the CFRTCSAH. The study considers the influence of parameters such as relative roughness pitch (P/e) and relative roughness height (e/Dh) on thermal efficiency and heat removal factor. The results demonstrate that the CFRTCSAH achieves remarkable thermal efficiency, reaching up to 80.7% under optimal roughness parameters (P/e = 12, e/Dh = 0.05). It is found that an increase in mass flow rates positively impacts thermal efficiency but should not exceed 0.09 kg/s for maximum effective efficiency. Additionally, it has observed that the CFRTCSAH performs most effectively when the relative roughness pitch ratio (P/e) is set to 12. A higher relative roughness height (e/Dh) promotes convective heat transfer, enhancing thermal performance, especially at lower mass flow rates. Conclusion presents a novel approach to improving the thermal performance of SAHs by introducing cinque-faced rib roughening. The CFRTCSAH design exhibits significant potential for achieving high thermal efficiency and can contribute to more efficient solar energy utilization in various applications. These findings offer valuable insights for the development of SAHs, promoting sustainable and energy-efficient technologies.

The current work investigates the performance of cylindrical-shaped sintered wick heat pipe at different orientations, numerically. The results are compared and validated with the experimental findings. The study is extended by using a nanofluid (comprising nano-Curo in deionized water) as a working fluid and the thermal performance of heat pipe with deionized (DI) water has been compared with that of heat pipe with nanofluid (containing various concentrations of CuO nanoparticles in DI water). During the investigation, the nanofluid with 1.0 weight fraction of CuO nanopaticles found to be optimum, which has produced the better results. The numerical analysis has been carried out to study the temperature difference, fluid velocity, and pressure drop of the sintered wick heat pipe using the commercial CFD software, Ansys Fluent R14.5. The computational results are observed to be much closer to the experimental data, and the vapor velocity at the heat pipe’s core has been determined to be 64.54% higher than the liquid flow over the wick structure. Interestingly, the heat pipe pressure drop has been reduced by adding CuO nanoparticles to the working fluid. Finally, the heat pipe loaded with a 1.0% concentration of nano-CuO in nanofluid has exhibited a notable reduction in pressure drop of 35.33%.

In this work, the experimental investigations were piloted to study the influence of hybrid nanoparticles containing SiO2 and CeO2 nanoparticles on thermo-physical characteristics of the paraffin-based phase change material (PCM). Initially, the hybrid nanoparticles were prepared by blending equal mass of SiO2 and CeO2 nanoparticles. The hybrid-nano/paraffin (HnP) samples were prepared by cautiously dispersing 0, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 percentage mass of hybrid nanoparticles inside the paraffin, respectively. The synthesized samples were examined under different instruments such as field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and thermal properties analyzer to ascertain the influence of hybrid nanoparticles on thermo-physical characteristics of the prepared samples. The obtained experimental results proved that the hybrid nanoparticles were uniformly diffused in the paraffin matrix without affecting the chemical arrangement of paraffin molecules. Prominently, the relative thermal stability and relative thermal conductivity of the paraffin were synergistically enriched up to 115.49% and 165.56%, respectively, when dispersing hybrid nanoparticles within paraffin. Furthermore, the hybrid nanoparticles appropriately amended the melting and crystallization point of the paraffin to reduce its supercooling, and the maximum reduction in supercooling was ascertained as 35.81%. The comprehensive studies indicated that the paraffin diffused with SiO2 and CeO2 hybrid nanoparticles at 1.0 mass percentage would yield a better outcome compared to the next higher mass fractions without much diminishing the latent heat of paraffin. Hence, it is recommended to utilize the hybrid-nano/paraffin with 1.0 mass fraction of the aforementioned hybrid nanoparticles for effectively augmenting the thermal energy capacity of low-temperature solar thermal systems.

Abstract Tool life of the traditional cutting tools is comparatively lesser on machining the martensitic stainless steel AISI 416 which is one of the hardest materials. In order to increase the tool life, wear-resistant nanocoatings on the cutting tools have been explored. This study enunciates a comparison of tool life between PECVD (plasma-enhanced CVD multilayer nanocoated) and PVDMNC (PVD multilayer nanocoated) cutting tools on turning a martensitic stainless steel AISI 416 by experimental and theoretical investigations in addition to exploration of the machinability studies of cutting tool flank wear, tool hardness and surface roughness of work material. An orthogonal design, signal-to-noise ratio and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) methods were employed to confirm the parameters like cutting speed, tool hardness and feed rate that are involved in the study to estimate the cutting tool- life. The investigations confirmed that cutting speed was the most dominant factor in determining tool life while comparing with other parameters. It was observed from the ANOVA results that the cutting speed, tool hardness, and feed rate have contributed 41.44%, 33.79%, and 24.35% respectively in determining the tool life of PECVD cutting tools whereas the contributions of the same parameters were found to be 40.01%, 32.90%, and 26.63% respectively for PVDMNC cutting tool. It is evident from the results that the cutting performance of the PECVD cutting tool is superior in terms of cutting speed and hardness which were enhanced by 1.43% and 0.89% respectively in addition to lesser wear rate when compared to the performance of PVDMNC cutting tools.

In the present work, flat plate solar water heating system has been designed and fabricated accommodating 2 m area of solar collector and 0.12 m surface area of the heat exchanger using Al2O3/water nanofluid as the working fluid in order to evaluate the performance efficiency in the forced circulation mode. The instantaneous efficiency of solar collector is calculated by taking lower volume fraction of 0.01% with average particle size of 25 nm with and without Triton X-100 surfactant and varying the flow rate from 1 L per minute to 3 L per minute, as per ASHRAE standard. The experimental results show that utilizing Al2O3/water nanofluid with mass flow rate at 2 L per minute increases the collector efficiency by 14.3% when compared to distilled water as the working medium.
