Experimental investigate to obtain the effectiveness of regenerator using Air.IJESFT
The regenerator is a kind of heat exchanger that provides a way to get the gas to the low temperature with as much potential work (cooling power) as possible without carrying a lot of heat with it. It doesn’t put heat in or out of the system but it absorbs heat from the gas on one part of the pressure cycle and returns heat to the gas on the other part.
More recent applications of regenerators in cryogenic systems can be found in small cryogenic refrigerators (cryocoolers). Systems such as the Stirling Gifford-McMahon, pulse tube, Solvay, Vuilleumier and magnetic cycle refrigerators all use either a static or rotary regenerator. In fact, the success these coolers have achieved is directly related to the characteristics of compact size and efficiency of the regenerator.
Regenerator effectiveness of 99% results in 21% loss of refrigeration effect, similarly regenerator effectiveness of 98% results in 42% loss of refrigeration effect, with refrigeration effectiveness of 95.238% the loss of refrigeration is 100%. i.e. no net cooling is produced.
In cryogenic applications the regenerator is typically made up of 100 to 500 meshes SS 304, Phosphorous bronze screens or small lead spheres (150 to 300 micro meters) are used, that are tightly packed together and held in place on either end in the same manner.
To develop experimental setup at our laboratory level by using air as working fluid and find out the effectiveness of various regenerative materials is basic goal of this work.

Experimental and Analytical Performance of Gas Gap Cryogenic Thermal Switch ...ijsrd.com
Heat switches are important devices in many cryogenic setups, especially in space applications and many systems have been used to allow a good ability to make or break a thermal contact. Among them, the so-called gas gap heat switches are known to be very reliable and simple due to the nonexistence of moving parts. The ON (conducting) state of the switch are obtained by varying the gas pressure and OFF (insulating) are obtained by creating vacuum in gap. In this paper, the gas gap cryogenic thermal switch is fabricated and tested using LN2 storage vessel. The thermal characteristics (Conductance in the ON and OFF state) of a "Gas Gap Heat Switch" are obtained experimentally and analytically using nitrogen as exchange gas. It is concluded that for both ON and OFF state, thermal conductance increases as heat load increases.
Heat/light/electrical energy is out today’s necessity and has scarcity also. Energy conservation is key requirement of any industry at all times.
In general, industries use heat energy for conservation of raw material to finished product. The source of heat energy is generally saturated or super heated steam. The steam generation is common use one boiler with carity of fuels. Whatever may be the fuel the generation should be as economy as possible which adds to the product cost. Further the usage of steam and recycling steam condensate back to boiler is an art depending on plant layouts.
In this project the steam generator is water tube boiler fired with rice husk. The steam is transferred to the tyre/tube moulds where tyres/tubes are cured while the heat is rejected to the tyres the condensate forms and this condensate is put back to the boiler. While doing so the steam is also stopped back to boiler without rejecting complete heat to the product. This gets flashed into atmosphere at feed water tank. The science of separation of condensate from steam saves energy. Better the separation more the fuel conservation.
In the steam generator the fuel is burnt to heat the water and form steam. This fuel burnt flue gas carries lot of energy, out through chimney. Prior to exhausting through the heat left in flue need to be recovered, through heat recovery mechanisms’. In this project an air-preheater condensate heat recovery unit is the major energy consuming station.
Experiment on single-mode feedback control of oscillatory thermocapillary con...IJERA Editor
Feedback control was carried out on nonlinear thermocapillary convections in a half-zone liquid bridge of a high
Prandtl number fluid under normal gravity. In the liquid bridge, the convection changed from a two-dimensional
steady flow to a three-dimensional oscillatory flow at a critical temperature difference. Feedback control was
realized by locally modifying the free surface temperature using local temperature measured at different
positions. The present study aims to confirm whether the control method can effectively suppress oscillatory
flows with every modal structure. Consequently, the control was theoretically verified to be effective for
oscillatory flows with every modal structure in a high Marangoni number range.

Dittus Boelter relation
The conventional expression for calculating the heat transfer
coefficient in fully developed turbulent flow in smooth pipes is the
Dittus Boelter equation
Nu = C Rem Prn
where C, m and n are constant determined experimentally. these
values - C=0.023, m=0.8 and
n = 0.4 for heating of the fluid
n = 0.3 for cooling of the fluid
Properties of this relation have been calculated at the average fluid
bulk temperatures. Equation is valid for single phase heat transfer
in fully developed turbulent flows in smooth pipes for fluids with
Prandtl number ranging from 0.6 to 100 at low heat fluxes. At high
fluxes the fluid properties changes resulting in higher errors.

The apparatus consists of a blower for forced
circulation.
The air from the blower passes through a flow passage
at different valve positions, heater and then to the test
section.
A heater placed around the tube heats the air, heat input
is controlled by a dimmer stat. Heat input is measured
with the help of voltmeter and ammeter.
Temperature of the air at inlet and at outlet are measured
using thermocouples. The surface temperature of the
tube is measured at different sections using
thermocouples embedded on the circular duct.
Test section is enclosed with wool and rope, where the
circulation of rope avoids the heat loss to outside.
The entire test rig is mounted on a table as shown
13. OPERATING PROCEDUREOPERATING PROCEDURE

heat transfer coefficient at a greater extent than the inclination.

20. Variation of Reynolds number andVariation of Reynolds number and
Nusselts number at all inclinationsNusselts number at all inclinations
From the above graph it is clear that, irrespective of angle of inclination
of duct, there is a direct proportionality between the Reynolds number
(Re) and Nusselts (Nu) number. i.e., by increasing the velocity of air there
must be an increase in the Reynolds number and Nusselts number, thus
increasing the heat transfer coefficient.
21. CONCLUSIONSCONCLUSIONS
During the test it was found that convective heat transfer
coefficient increases in air stream velocity at constant heat input
and inclination.
From the result it is evident that heat transfer coefficient is
maximum for a constant heat input of undergoes and 9.375 m/sec
velocity when the when the duct was inclined at 900
inclination.
The minimum heat transfer coefficient was observed for heat input
of 292.6watts and air stream velocity of 8.386 m/sec with 300
inclinations.
The decrease in heat transfer coefficient may be due to restriction
in the flow of air when the duct is above 900
.
22. SCOPE FOR FUTURE WORKSCOPE FOR FUTURE WORK
The experimentation can be carried out for different fluids.
The determination of variation of heat transfer coefficient for
varying cross section of the copper duct.
The test rig can be computerized to obtain more accurate results.
Fins can be attached on the specimen and the effect of fins on heat
transfer coefficient can be studied.
