The thermal performance of a cooling tower and its cooling water system is critical for industrial plants, and small deviations from the design conditions may cause severe instability in the operation and economics of the ...

Evaporative cooling operates using water and air as working fluids. It consists in water evaporation, through the passage of an airflow, thus decreasing the air temperature. This system has a great potential to provide ...

Large-eddy simulation (LES) of open channel flow driven by an oscillating pressure gradient with zero surface shear stress was performed. The flow is representative of a tidal boundary layer in the coastal ocean under weak ...

This research focuses the evaporative cooling by water aspersion on wavy cement fiber tiles in the city of São Carlos, SP, seeking to use it to reduce the buildings heat gains. A theoretical model was developed, based on ...

The aim of the present study was to compare the viability and fertility of bovine semen diluted in Botu-Bov (BB) commercial extender with and without the cryoprotectant glycerol then cooled at 5 C for 24 hours in the ...
