Fluid mechanics heat loss

Research studies over the past several years have shown that least three possible methods exist for terminating propellant combustion—rapid depressurization of the combustion chamber, the L method, and rapid injection of a vaporizable fluid. Each of these methods initiates pressure and temperature disturbances within the combustion zone which disrupt the balance between the rate of heat generation by chemical reactions and the rate of heat loss. If the disturbances cause the heat loss to exceed the heat input, combustion will be extinguished. These three methods for achieving termination merely differ in the mechanism by which the pressure and temperature disturbances are created. 

Heat transfer in micro-channels occurs under superposition of hydrodynamic and thermal effects, determining the main characteristics of this process. Experimental study of the heat transfer in micro-channels is problematic because of their small size, which makes a direct diagnostics of temperature field in the fluid and the wall difficult. Certain information on mechanisms of this phenomenon can be obtained by analysis of the experimental data, in particular, by comparison of measurements with predictions that are based on several models of heat transfer in circular, rectangular and trapezoidal micro-channels. This approach makes it possible to estimate the applicability of the conventional theory, and the correctness of several hypotheses related to the mechanism of heat transfer. It is possible to reveal the effects of the Reynolds number, axial conduction, energy dissipation, heat losses to the environment, etc., on the heat transfer. 

A small organism has a heat loss of -< = 1.65 W and performs external work W = 0.025 Nm/s. Calculate that part of the total energy expenditure that originates from its internal circulation, which involves the pumping of 122mL/min of fluid against a pressure drop of 3.4 kPa with a net chemo-mechanical efficiency of 12%.

Direct contact systems are considered next liquid-liquid. Section 3.6 gas-liquid cooling towers. Section 3.7 gas-liquid quenchers. Section 3.8 gas-liquid condensers. Section 3.9, and gas-gas thermal wheels. Section 3.10. Heat loss to the atmosphere is described in Section 3.11. Refrigeration, steam generation and high temperature heat transfer fluids are presented in Sections 3.12 to 3.14, respectively. Tempered heat exchange systems are considered in Section 3.15. 

Starting at point (1), the fluid is compressed without heat loss (adiabatically) or mechanical loss to point (2). The absolute temperature rises from to T2 during this compression. The fluid expands at constant temperature without losses to point (3) as it takes heat Q ) from a reservoir at temperature (T ), It then expands without heat or mechanical loss to point (4) as the temperature of the fluid drops to Tj. The fluid is compressed adiabatically back to point (1) at constant temperature as it rejects heat (Qj) to a second reservoir having a constant temperature (Tj). From points (2) to (3) and (3) to (4), work equal to Q2 is delivered to an external system, but from (4) to (1) and (1) to (2), work equal to Qi is taken from an external system. The net work done is Q2 - 2i) and the efficiency of the process (e ) is ... 

Heat stroke victims have a blocked sweating mechanism, as stated in the third paragraph. This information is given in the second paragraph If the victim still suffers from the symptoms listed in the first sentence of the paragraph, the victim needs more water and salt to help with the inadequate intake of water and the loss of fluids that caused those symptoms.
