Heat flux measurement is used in the field of fluid mechanics and heat transfer to quantify
the transfer of heat within systems. Several techniques are in common use, including …

Liquid crystals that can accurately measure temperature and are relatively stable are now
available. There are exciting new opportunities to apply these liquid crystals to the …

The first edition of the book “Pressure and Temperature Sensitive Paints” published by
Springer in 2005 summarizes the early development of pressure-and temperature-sensitive …

The effect of wing-type vortex generators on heat transfer and pressure drop of a fin-and-
tube heat exchanger element was investigated. Local heat transfer was measured by liquid …

Publisher Summary The decade of the 1950s saw great advances in heat-transfer
measurement techniques. Optical methods became popular, along with several new heat …

We examine the influence of fin spacing on the over-tube side of a single-row fin-tube heat
exchanger through flow visualization and numerical computation. The distance between fins …

Flow structure, heat transfer, and drag by longitudinal vortices generated by double rows of
delta winglets in transition channel flow are investigated for the reduction of the gas side …

A series of experiments was conducted for the measurement of local convective heat
transfer coefficients for an obliquely impinging circular air jet to a flat plate. In the …

A time-varying surface temperature may be measured by a thin film of encapsulated
thermochromic liquid crystal applied to the surface. The work reported in this paper has …

Experimental results of flow structure and heat transfer enhancement by longitudinal vortices
in plane channels built by parallel plates in the transition flow regime are presented. The …
