Effect of post weld heat treatment on mechanical properties of MIG welded mild steel

This paper presents an impressive design of a convergent divergent (C-D) nozzle using the method of characteristics for a Mach number 2 test section. The nozzle’s geometry was meticulously crafted in SolidWorks, and its performance was evaluated through a CFD simulation in Ansys Fluent R22 software. Results showed excellent agreement between the simulation and analytical data, with the Mach number ranging from 1.78 to 2. The study also compared turbulence modeling techniques, concluding that the k-omega model produced superior results. The supersonic wind tunnel achieved remarkable efficiency, completing a run at 1.8 Mach number in just 6 seconds. Overall, the study showcased exceptional accuracy and meticulousness.

“…At given inlet pressure the discharge is calculated at the outlet of each drip emitter. The value of discharge depends on the inlet condition and the labyrinth channels structure of the drip emitter [29][30]. At same inlet pressure condition, the circular channel gives more discharge than the trapezoidal, rectangular and triangular channels.…”

A drip irrigation system delicately nourishes plant roots by gently delivering water drop by drop, ensuring minimal water loss due to runoff or evaporation. This method allows soil particles ample time to absorb and retain the water, promoting optimal plant hydration. To enhance the efficiency of drip irrigation, a mesmerizingly detailed 3D solid model of a drip emitter was meticulously crafted using cutting-edge SolidWorks software, revolutionizing the irrigation system's performance. CFD simulation technique is used to understanding the internal flow behavior and optimum pressure inside the in -line drip irrigation emitters. Their labyrinth structures of channels are main cause of change in flow behavior and optimum pressure in the drip irrigation emitters. Standard k-ɛ model and Enhanced wall function are used to simulate the flow behavior in labyrinth channels. Key findings are the efficiency of triangular channel is greater than the other channels (rectangular, trapezoidal and circular) based on analysis of flow rate. The value of Discharge coefficient of these channels from CFD simulation present a relationship of kCircular>kTrapezoidal>kRectangular>kTriangular. When the channel shape is smooth (like a circular channel) than the higher value of k. The efficiency of triangular channel is greater than the other channels (rectangular, trapezoidal and circular) based on analysis of flow rate. Discharge is increased by 76%, 68.42%,66.67% and 39.39% for circular channel, Trapezoidal channel, rectangular channel and Triangular Channel respectively for pressure range of 1.02m of water head to 10.2m of water head.

In the current study, the investigation of heat transfer and fluid flow Characteristics of Pure water when pass through an inner annulus triangular shape and circular shape triple tube heat exchanger (CTTHX). this investigation has been conducted across various Reynolds Number to gain insights into their performance also conducted a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation using the ANSYS-FLUENT software. Result obtained was validated by comparing to empirical correlation data found in the existing literature. The investigation considered various operating variable as Reynolds Number and temperature across the inner, intermediate, and outer tubes. Specifically, the Reynolds Number of 2000 at 305 K, a range of 2000 to 4500 at 340 K, and 2000 at 295 K for the respective tubes. Key findings are that friction factor of triangular shape is increase by 10.5% and for circular shape by 2.69% as compared to correlation in existing literature. And Nusselt number (Nu) for triangular shape increase by 39.19% and for circular shape by 13.30% as compared to correlation in the range of Reynolds Number (Re) from 2000 to 4500. The effectiveness was increased by 16.67% and 7.6% for triangular shape and circular shape respectively as compared to existing literature.
