Hydrodynamic Study Through Computational FluidDynamics of Radial Flow Membrane Module
Abstract: Historically Crossflow Membrane modules came first in the membrane-based separation (MBS)process. Its high shear generation overcomes two non-idealities concentration polarization andsubsequent fouling. Primarily, high shear generation and large surface area create a positive domainfor large applications. Thereafter, feed flow rate-dependent shear generation creates a hindrance.This obstruction is overcome with Dynamic Shear Enhanced Membrane Filtration Pilot (DSEMFPs).Low surface area is a vital drawback of DSEMFPs. This radial flow membrane module with …

Study of Analysis, Design and Performance of Fin
Abstract: This paper discusses the use of extended surface heat transfer in heat exchangers. The size and cost of an exchanger is dependent upon the heat duty, the allowable pressure drop, and the geometry of the heat transfer area. The dominance of this resistance is often broken by the use of extended surfaces (fins), which will result in a lower area and hence smaller exchanger. This paper will consider which, if …
