Okafor, Izuchukwu F.; Dirker, Jaco; Meyer, Josua P. (Taylor and Francis, 2019)Non-symmetric heat flux distributions in terms of gravity in solar collector tubes influence buoyancy-driven secondary flow which has an impact on the associated heat transfer and pressure drop performance. In this study ...

Ndenguma, Dickson Daniel; Dirker, Jaco; Burger, N.D.L (Nicolaas Daniel Lombard) (Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, 2014-06)This investigation compares the results from an experimental and numerical study of air flow in a scaled-down underground coal mine model. This was done in order to determine if numerical analysis can be relied upon ...
-
Adelaja, Adekunle O.; Dirker, Jaco; Meyer, Josua P. (Elsevier, 2019-02)This paper presents the thermal performance of smooth and microfin tubes and the enhancement factors as they respond to inclination angle, mass flux and vapour quality in inclined tubes of 1.488 m long, 9.55 mm outer ...

Condensation heat transfer in smooth inclined tubes for R134a at different saturation temperatures Meyer, Josua P.; Dirker, Jaco; Adelaja, Adekunle O. (Elsevier, 2014-03)This paper presents the effects of saturation temperature and inclination angle on convective heat transfer during condensation of R134a in an inclined smooth tube of inner diameter of 8.38 mm. Experiments were conducted ...

Noori Rahim Abadi, Seyyed Mohammad Ali; Meyer, Josua P.; Dirker, Jaco (Elsevier, 2018-04)Almost all work on condensation in tubes were conducted for smooth tubes in a horizontal or vertical orientation, and little has been done at other inclination angles. Recent experimental works with condensation at different ...

Vermaak, M.; Potgieter, J.; Dirker, Jaco; Moghimi, M.A.; Valluri, P.; Sefiane, K.; Meyer, Josua P. (Elsevier, 2020-09)Flow-boiling of Perfluorohexane (FC-72) in horizontal micro/mini channels was investigated experimentally and numerically at different rotational orientations in terms of gravity. One-sided uniform channel heating was ...
-
Dirker, Jaco; Meyer, Josua P.; Reid, W.J. (Elsevier, 2018-11)In this experimental investigation the influence of non-uniform heat flux distributions on the internal heat transfer coefficient in a horizontal circular tube was studied for liquid water. The tube had an inner diameter ...
