Alleviating the heat stress suffered by dairy cows in order to increase their productivity
depends on an effective ventilation system. For this reason, this study evaluated the heat …

A significant issue of manifold design, not heretofore considered, is the geometric shape of
the exit ports as a means for tailoring manifold performance. To investigate the efficacy of …

The primary objective of this study was to create and validate a computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) model capable of replicating the flow distribution created by a positive-pressure …

To effectively mitigate heat stress among lactating sows, this study proposed a novel pen
partition-attached jet air supply (PJAS) and compared its performance with commercial …

A simple 1D theoretical model is suggested, with which it is possible to design ventilation
ducts that are capable of providing uniform air distribution on the outlets. Detailed analysis is …

Flow distribution performance of the distribution manifold is the most important index to
evaluate its design rationality. To date, many published literatures have extensively …

A multi-perforated tube indicates the existence of multiple holes in various shapes on the
surface of long cylinder-type or rectangular tubes, and the hole installed on the surface is …

Combined heat and power (CHP) applications have significant environmental and economic
benefits that are consistent with the goals of the US Department of Energy (DOE). One area …

Fluid distributors are widely used in various industrial and ventilation applications. For the
appropriate design of such distributors, the discharge coefficient has to be known to predict …

Abstract Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations of a self-contained open refrigeration
display cabinet have been performed. Experimental measurements of the cabinet operation …
