Initial Reconnaissance of the 2011 Wildland-Urban Interfaces Fires in Amarillo, Texas

July 27, 2011
Author(s)
Alexander Maranghides, William Mell, Karen Ridenour, Derek McNamara
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is working to reduce the risk of fire spread in Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) communities. An objective of this work is to develop first generation tools for improved risk assessment and risk

Comparison of Gas Velocity Measurements and CFD Predictions in the Exhaust Duct of a Stationary Source

Author(s)
Rodney A. Bryant, Olatunde B. Sanni, Elizabeth F. Moore, Robert P. Borthwick, Marco G. Fernandez, Iosif I. Shinder, Jiann C. Yang, Aaron N. Johnson
Two series of independent flow measurements were conducted for cross validation of flow velocity in the exhaust duct of the NIST Large Fire Laboratory. In the first series, two pressure measurement probe types, an S probe and a 3-D probe, were used to

Fate of nanoparticles during life cycle of polymer nanocomposites

July 6, 2011
Author(s)
Tinh Nguyen, Bastien T. Pellegrin, Coralie Bernard, Xiaohong Gu, Justin M. Gorham, Paul E. Stutzman, Deborah S. Jacobs, Walter E. Byrd, John W. Hettenhouser, Joannie W. Chin
Nanoparticles are increasingly used in consumer and structural polymeric products to enhance a variety of properties. Under the influences of environmental factors (e.g., ultraviolet, moisture, temperature) and mechanical actions (e.g., scratching

IMPACT OF CLASSICAL ASSUMPTIONS IN MODELLING A MICROCHANNEL GAS COOLER

July 5, 2011
Author(s)
Santiago Martinez-Ballester, Jose M. Corberan, Jose Gonzalvez-Macia, Piotr A. Domanski
Most of the current air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger models use the classic ε-NTU approach. These models do not account for 2D longitudinal heat conduction in the tube and the longitudinal heat conduction in the fin. These models, also do not account for
