Electrohydrodynamic enhancement of extraterrestrial capilliary pumped loops for nuclear applications
(2010-12-01)
This work examines electrohydrodynamic enhancement of capillary pump loops (CPL) for use in extraterrestrial nuclear applications. A capillary pump uses capillary action through a porous wick to transport heat and mass. ...
Second law analysis of a liquid cooled battery thermal management system for hybrid and electric vehicles
(2010-08-01)
As hybrid and electric vehicles continue to evolve there is a need for better battery
thermal management systems (BTMS), which maintain uniformity of operating
temperature of the batteries in the vehicles. This thesis ...
