A MCDM METHODOLOGY TO DETERMINE THE MOST CRITICAL VARIABLES IN THE PRESSURE DROP AND HEAT TRANSFER IN MINICHANNELS

A MCDM Methodology to Determine the Most Critical Variables in the Pressure Drop and Heat Transfer in Minichannels

This paper proposes a methodology aiming at determining the most influent working variables and geometrical parameters over the pressure drop and heat transfer during the condensation process of several refrigerant gases using heat exchangers with pipes mini channels technology.A multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methodology was used; this MCDM

Experimental Study of Canoe-fishway Hydraulic Condition

The idea of using canoe-fishway was first proposed by Hassinger (2002) and was experimentally conducted in the hydraulic laboratory of the Kassel University.Hassinger and Kraetz (2004) presented the general principles of the canoe-fishway design.The idea of this new development was driven by the thought that a great number of thin and elastic rough
