Öğe Experimental investigation of solar stills integrated with solar water heating collectors(Türk Isı Bilimi ve Tekniği Derneği, 2017-10-31) Argunhan, Zeki; El, Emin; Yıldız, Cengiz; Çakmak, GülşahSolar still is a more practical way of obtaining clean water. In this study, we aimed to improve the efficiency of solar still systems and obtain distilled water at the same time. For this purpose, 5 different solar still systems were designed. Type 1; conventional solar still, Type 2; conventional solar still integrated with solar water heating collector and run via natural convection, Type 3; conventional solar still integrated with solar water heating collector and tubular heat exchanger and run via natural convection, Type 4; conventional solar still placed with plate heat exchanger and integrated with solar water heating collector and run via natural convection, Type 5; conventional solar still placed with plate heat exchanger and integrated with solar water heating collector and run via forced convection. In this study, the experiments were carried out on the parameters influencing the performance, the amount of distilled water obtained, and the efficiency of experiment settings designed in different types; and finally the results were presented. The amount of distilled water and efficiency of conventional solar still were 2389 ml and 51.47%, respectively. Maximum total amount of water and efficiency from natural convection systems were obtained from Type 4, and the values calculated were found as to be 5788 ml and 55.91%. Maximum amount of distilled water and the efficiency were obtained by utilizing forced convection system were found as to be 6068 ml and 58.99%, respectively.Öğe Second Law analysis in concentric heat exchangers with vortex flow generators(Energy Education Science and Technology, 2011) Argunhan, Zeki; Çakmak, Gülşah; Yıldız, Cengiz; Behçet, RasimIn the present study, the experimental results of heat transfer of a concentric tube heat exchanger were analyzed with respect to Second Law of Thermodynamics to reach the geometric optimal design of the heat exchangers. In order to increase the heat transfer, the vortex generators were placed in the entrance of the inner pipe of the heat exchanger. These vortex generators are 60 mm in diameter having six angled (55°, 65°, 75°, 90°) winglets. The winglets have one rectangular slot in each and are 2×7 mm in dimensions. Experiments were carried out with different Reynolds Numbers. Air as hot fluid and water as cold fluid were passed through the inner pipe and outer pipe of the concentric tube heat exchanger, respectively. The variations of the efficiency and Entropy Generation Number with respect to Reynolds Number are shown in graphics, and the results were discussed.Öğe Effect of swirl generators with different sized propeller on heat transfer enhancement(Energy Education Science and Technology, 2011) Argunhan, Zeki; Yıldız, Cengiz; Çakmak, GülşahIn this study, the swirl flow that is one of the passive methods is used for increasing the heat transfer coefficient in the concentric heat exchangers. For this purpose, propeller type swirl generators were prepared to test in the experiments. So, the effect of propellers placed in the inner pipe of the concentric heat exchangers on the heat transfer and pressure drop was investigated experimentally. Experiments were undertaken for the Reynolds Number range of 4000-12000 and for both parallel and counter-flow. It is shown that, the propellers rotated freely with the effect of fluid flowed in the inner pipe are swirling flow generator and they have improved heat transfer. In addition that up to 50% enhancements could be accomplished in heat transfer rates with the swirl generators compared to without the swirl generators. In the parallel flow mode, the enhancement was 10% lower than that of counter-flow at the same Reynolds number. On the other hand the pressure losses increase approximately 3 times more than the empty tube related to Reynolds numbers and propeller sizes. As an outcome of the study, the results showed that a rather smaller size but the same capacity heat exchanger could be proposed by using these elements imposing swirling to the fluid flowing through inner pipe.Öğe Thermal performance enhancement of flat-plate solar collectors by means of three different nanofluids(Elsevier, 2018-12) Budak Ziyadanoğulları, Neşe; Yıldız, Cengiz; Yücel, Halit LutfiSolar energy, which comes first among renewable energy sources, enables efficient use of energy with many applications due to its low operating cost and environmental friendliness. In this study, we experimentally investigated the effects on thermal efficiency of nanofluid and water as working fluids in flat-plate solar collector hot water solar energy systems. Nanofluids were prepared by adding Al2O3, CuO, and TiO2 nanoparticles at 0.2, 0.4, and 0.8 vol% into distilled water, and then the thermophysical properties (thermal conductivity, viscosity) of the prepared nanofluids were determined. Flow rate was adjusted to 250 l/h at given concentrations for each nanofluid in the experimental setups and data such as collector inlet and outlet temperatures, ambient and tap water temperatures; radiation, humidity, and wind speed were measured and recorded. The obtained data were used to calculate efficiencies according to ASHRAE 93-2003 standards. When compared with water, the results indicated that the use of nanofluid increased collector efficiency.Öğe Effect of the air flow rate of blower on the performance of solar still(Türk Isı Bilimi ve Tekniği Derneği, 2015-06-01) Argunhan, Zeki; El, Emin; Yücel, Halit Lutfi; Çakmak, Gülşah; Yıldız, CengizSolar distillation is one of the important methods for water purification. This paper examines the performance of solar distillation system at different air flow rate. To increase the performance of distiller, artificial wind was created by fan and suitable wind speed was investigated to increase the amount of water distilled. The experiments were carried out in Elazığ climate conditions. In order to examine the effect of the wind speed on solar distillation system, two stills were manufactured with the size of 1000x1000 mm. One of them was the conventional still which was used as a reference. The other still was used to investigate experimentally the effect of the wind speed. Graphs were drawn for time-dependent changes in the amount of water distilled. It was found that that the productivity of the fan-still distiller was 14.7 % greater than that of a conventional still.Öğe Experimental investigation of thermal performance in a concentric tube heat exchanger with wavy inner pipe(SpringerLink, 2012-06) Argunhan, Zeki; Çakmak, Gülşah; Yücel, Halit Lutfi; Yıldız, CengizIn this article, the heat transfer, friction factor, and thermal performance factor characteristics of a concentric-tube heat exchanger are examined experimentally. A wavy inner pipe is mounted in the tube with the purpose of generating swirl flow that would help to increase the heat transfer rate of the tube. The examination is performed for a Reynolds number ranging from 2700 to 8800. An empirical correlation is also formulated to match with experimental data of the Nusselt number using the Wilson plot method. In addition, to obtain the real benefits in using the swirl generator at a constant pumping power, the thermal enhancement factor is also determined. Over the range considered, the increases in the Nusselt number, friction factor, and thermal performance factor are found to be, respectively, about 113 %, 81 %, and 196 % higher than those obtained from a smooth-surface inner pipe.
