Oil Retention and Its Effects on Pressure Drop and Heat Transfer in Microchannel Evaporators of Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Systems
(2015-12-01)
In Air-conditioning and Refrigeration systems, a small portion of the compressor oil circulates with the refrigerant through the cycle components. The oil circulating with the refrigerant flow retains in heat exchangers ...
Optimization-based multibody dynamics modeling method for team lifting simulation
(2019-12)
A novel optimization-based multibody dynamics modeling method is proposed for two-dimensional (2D) team lifting prediction. The box itself is modeled as a floating-base rigid body in Denavit-Hartenberg representation. The ...
