  Characterization of Various Carbon-Based Polypropylene Nanocomposites

  Kaya, Ozge; Buran, Dincer; Akkurt, Nevzat; Yapici, Kerim; Sarac, Mehmet Fahri

  Pure and three types of carbon additives including graphite, graphene, and multi-walled carbon nanotube added into polypropylene (PP) composites as a vibration damping component and sound insulator material in the automotive sector were investigated by using vibrational damping, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), tensile, hardness and acoustic behavior tests. According to the obtained results, porosity and distribution of carbon in the polymer matrix are key parameters on the composite parameters causing its reduction of tensile strength and its brittle behavior. Moreover, it seems that 0.01 wt.% graphene and 1 wt.% graphite added PP composites show the highest impact damping properties and also increase the storage and loss modulus of the composite while decreasing the glass transition temperature. The loss factor obtained from DMA and vibration damping test indicated the damping capacity in the interphase of carbon added PP composites depends only on the load applied and not sensitivity upon the natural frequency of the composite system. Depending on the morphological differentiation, graphene added PP composites decrease the sound transmission loss while the 0.1 wt.% MWCNT added PP composites increase sound transmission loss which makes it an alternative vibration damping component.

  Heat transfer augmentation by swirl generators inserted into a tube with constant heat flux

  Kurtbas, Irfan; Guelcimen, Fevzi; Akbulut, Abdullah; Buran, Dincer

  A novel conical injector type swirl generator (CITSG) is devised in this study. Performances of heat transfer and pressure drop in a pipe with the CITSG are experimentally examined for the CITSGs' angle (alpha) of 30 degrees, 45 degrees and 60 degrees in Reynolds number (Re) range of 10,000-35,000. Moreover, circular holes with different numbers (N) and cross-section areas (A(h)) are drilled on the CITSG. In this way, total areas (A(t) = N . A(h)) of the holes on the CITSG are equaled each other. Besides, flow directors having three different angles (beta = 30 degrees, 60 degrees and 90 degrees) to radial direction are attached to every one of the holes. This study is a typical example for decaying flow. All experiments were conduced with air accordingly; Prandtl number was approximately fixed at 0.71. The local Nusselt number (Nu(x)), heat transfer enhancement ratio (Nu(ER)) and heat transfer performance ratio (Nu(PR)) are calculated and discussed in this paper. It is found that the Nu(ER) decreases with increase in Reynolds number, the director angle (beta), the director diameter (d), and with decrease in the CITSG angle (alpha). Likewise, variation of Nu(PR) and Nu(ER) is also essentially similar for the same independent parameters. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
