    The application of room radiators for the purposes of cooling and dehumidification in buildings for hot and humid climates is investigated. The radiator is purposely brought below the dew point temperature of the room ...
  • Heat exchanger design in a hot-water store 
    Mote, R. T. (Cranfield University, 1991-09)
    The behaviour of natural convective buoyancy-driven flows within a hot-water store due to the forced passage of colder water through the heat-exchanger's pipe are reviewed in the light of recent advances in experiment ...
  • Heat removal in axial flow high pressure gas turbine 
    Alhajeri, Hamad (Cranfield University, 2016)
    The demand for high power in aircraft gas turbine engines as well as industrial gas turbine prime mover promotes increasing the turbine entry temperature, the mass flow rate and the overall pressure ratio. High turbine ...
  • Heat transfer from swirling impinging jets 
    Mahmood, M. (Cranfield University, 1980-04)
    This thesis is concerned with the determination of the local and average mass/heat transfer--from swirling jets impinging orthogonally onto flat surfaces. ApplicatioCn> of swirl alters the flow field of the' jet ...
  • Heat Transfer In Enclosures: Ovens 
    Ekundayo, C. O. (Cranfield University, 1994-12)
    The use of natural convection to effect heat transfers in enclosures is limited principally because of its low heat transfer coefficients. This study aimed to establish a better understanding of the heat transfers occurring ...
  • Heat transfer properties of porous materials and insulants 
    Batty, William J. (Cranfield University, 1984-03)
    Buildings are complex thermally-dynamic structures serving aesthetic as well as, utilitarian functions. It is essential that careful planning is undertaken if buildings are to be energy efficient and cheap to run ...
  • Heat transfers from district heating pipes. 
    Neale, Antony John (Cranfield University, 1987-05)
    Experimental and numerical investigations were carried out on air-filled cavities containing heated inner cylinders. The effect of varying the position of radial spacers on a single cylinder was studied. It was concluded ...
  • Helix-simulation framework development for assessment of rotorcraft engines 
    Mohseni, Martina (Cranfield University, 2011-03)
    The inevitable growth of air traffic resulting from the increasing demands on utilization of the aircraft for various purposes has introduced public awareness and concern about the contribution of air traffic towards climate ...
  • High resolution and high order methods for RANS modelling and aerodynamic optimization 
    Zachariadis, Zacharias Ioannis (Cranfield University, 2008-10)
    With the optimisation of fixed aerodynamic shapes reaching its limits, the active flow control concept increasingly attracts attention of both academia and industry. Adaptive wing technology, and shape morphing airfoils ...
  • High resolution schemes for bluff-body aerodynamics 
    Nakos, Dimitrios (Cranfield University, 2013-10-01)
    This MSc by Research study has been conducted with the application of a variety of grid configurations for extensive grid analysis along with various numerical schemes on the Ahmed body benchmark test case, in both 2D ...
  • High temperature particle -to-metal interaction in a simulated gas turbine environment 
    Salama, I. M. (Cranfield University, 2002-05)
    An experimental study of the particle-to-metal interaction during high temperatures and velocity impact conditions is presented. A novel continuous erosion testing facility have been used to study the effect of particle ...
  • High-order methods for steady, unsteady and transitional flow over a cylinder 
    Starr, Maxwell (Cranfield University, 2012-07)
    In this thesis, the flow around a cylinder is chosen as a test case for higher-order numerical reconstruction techniques. No direct comparison of these higher-order methods has been carried out for this particular test ...
  • High-order methods on mixed-element unstructured meshes for aeronautical applications 
    Antoniadis, Antonis F. (Cranfield University, 2012-11)
    Higher resolution and reliability are the desiderata for Computational Fluid Dynamics and main drivers for the development, implementation and validation of highorder accurate methods. Complex fluid dynamic phenomena ...
  • How the consumer confidence index could increase air travel demand forecast accuracy? 
    Teyssier, Narjesse (Cranfield University, 2012-09)
    Because of the complex nature of the air transportation industry with continuous changes in the environment, the past records of air traffic forecasters, either using trend extrapolation or causal models or even more ...
  • Human Factors Effects in Helicopter Maintenance: Proactive Monitoring and Controlling Techniques 
    Rashid, Hamadalneel Suliman Jumaa (Cranfield University, 2010)
    Aviation maintenance errors account for between 13% and 23% of the global aviation incidents and accidents initiators, which require a wider global use of aviation maintenance safety improvement activities. The current ...
  • Hybrid molecular and continuum fluid dynamics models for micro and nanofluidic flows 
    Asproulis, N. (Cranfield University, 2009-12)
    From molecules to living organisms and from atoms to planets a variety of physical phe- nomena operate at different temporal and spatial scales. Understanding the nature of those phenomena is crucial for advancing new ...
