ROBINSON, ANTHONY (2013)This work investigates the mechanism of adiabatic gasbubblegrowth from submergedorifices with the view of elucidating the interdependence of the bubble shape and the pressure field during growth and departure. Air injection ... -
Heat pipe-based radiator for low grade geothermal energy conversion in domestic space heating
ROBINSON, ANTHONY; KERRIGAN, KEVIN; O'DONNELL, GARRET EDWARD (2011)A severe technical drawback of geothermal heat pumps (GHPs) is the fact that the nominal operating temperature available for domestic space heating is typically in the region of 50?C. This is 25?C to 40?C less than ... -
Heat Transfer Enhancement from Bouncing Bubble Dynamics
ROBINSON, ANTHONY; MURRAY, DARINA; DONOGHUE, DAVID BRENDAN (2011)Heat transfer enhancement resulting from the effects of two phase flow can play an important role in for convective cooling. Currently, the effect of bubble/surface interactions has received very little attention. To address ... -
