    Abstract: In this study, thermal performance of a car radiator with employment of Ethylene Glycol/copper nanofluid in disparate environmental conditions has been investigated. The governing equations for heat transfer in the car radiator have been written and solved by using a generated computer code in different environmental states and the changes in the o... Show More

    Abstract: Hydroinertia gas journal bearings have been applied to solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) as an example. This type of bearing can realize a stable operation for the ultra-high-speed rotation of an NMR sample tube as high as several million rpm, because these bearings utilize a large radial clearance compared with conventional externally p...
