Thermohydraulic Performance of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (sCO2) in Horizontal Enhanced Surface Tubes
… et al., 2023). Conventional turbulent flow correlations (Petukhov and Gnielinski) were developed for constant property fluids and often result in large errors when used for sCO2 flow (±30%). Improved correlations have been created for use with sCO2 but they are limited mainly to small …

Magnetohydrodynamic Heat Transfer for Fusion Energy
This thesis uses measurements from a new experimental flow loop and new analysis of existing literature data to provide a heat transfer correlation for turbulent magnetohydrodynamic flows. Fluids used as breeder/coolant in fusion power plant blankets must provide adequate heat transfer of up to 10 …

Design and Characterization of a High pressure Flow Loop for Heat Transfer Experiments of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide
… crucial phenomenon, a state-of-the-art closed flow loop was developed. This setup enabled convective heat transfer experiments of sCO2 under diverse boundary conditions and test section geometries. Key components of the loop include the test section, constant temperature bath, pump, flow meter, …
