film thickness was varied in order to consider the influence of the Biot number of the film on the bending moment.
[FIGURE 2 OMITTED] The key dimensionless parameter that characterizes the heat transfer in this system is the Biot number (Bi) given by Bi = ([h.
1/3]) (12) Internal Temperature Gradients For a practical packed sphere regenerator design, the Biot number (Bi) associated with the magnetic material is not generally much less than unity throughout the entire cycle, particularly during flow periods.
Applicability of this formulation to any cooling body depends on the value of a dimensionless parameter called the Biot number Bi, which is described for our case as follows: Bi = hD/[kappa] (14) Here [kappa] is the heat conductivity of HDPE.
A small Biot number represents an adiabatic wall, while a large Biot number corresponds to an isothermal boundary approximately.
a]) (Dimensionless difference between the latent heat required for plastic melting and crystallization) Notice that the dimensionless conductance of the mold is the inverse Biot number for the mold.
i] (Plastic curvature effect) Notice that the dimensionless conductance of the mold is the inverse Biot number for the mold.
25 W/mK (11), which gives a conservative estimate of the Biot number to be 0.
