COMPUTATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF A DOUBLE PIPE HEAT EXCHANGER WITH AND WITHOUT INSERTS USING NANO FLUIDS

By Bandaru Gopi and T Lakshmana Kishore

Abstract: In applications that need warming procedures, improved heat exchange will also significantly boost heat efficiency and reduce the expense of design and operation. Double tube heat exchangers are best suited for high temperature and high compression applications due to their simplify diameters. Although they are cheap, they disseminate to the other types in a comparatively…

Planar-to-Rotary G-code Transformation Via Post-Processing for Discrete 4-Axis Machining

By Pedro Portugal, Damian Venghaus, and Diego Lopez

Abstract: Conventional 4-axis CNC machining remains inaccessible to many due to the high costs of industrial hardware and the complexity of firmware modifications for entry-level controllers. This paper presents a software-defined framework that enables Planar-to-Rotary G-code Transformation, allowing standard 3-axis CNC systems to perform discrete 4-axis machining without hardware retrofits or firmware changes. The core of…
