Comment by riana buchari on January 6, 2011 at 6:27pm: Dear Engineer..

I am looking for another suitable heat transfer fluid for NTC Thermistor products.

High Dielectric constant (at 25°C > 1.9)/High Thermal conductivity

Low viscosity (approximately; 2.4 cSt or lower) , Range Temperature => -40°C – 200°C , High Flash Point , No Odor , No Oil , Low Cost. OPENED SYSTEM, Medium is Bath (thermostat)

Recently, we are using fluorocarbon based for heat transfer fluid/dielectric fluid.

can someone recommend me heat transfer fluid as the spesifications i mentioned above.

Comment by Benjilali MAhdi on January 4, 2011 at 4:23am: Hello engineers

I am an energetic engineer and a JAVA programmer

We have recently developed a numerical desk top application, it can resolve 2D planar and axisymmetric heat conduction problems, it is a work of one year, we compared our results with some analytical and numerical solutions it gives good precision and fast resolution

I wish to publish my work

Comment by selva on May 6, 2010 at 10:05am: how to find out overall heat transfer co efficient for shell and coil type ice making machine?

Comment by Morteza Hashemi on January 23, 2010 at 12:07am: Hi, i am looking for an epoxy resin that is most efficient for heat transfer from coolant fluid to a sensing element such as a NTC thermistor in a temperature sensor. can someone tell me what material is most efficient for this application....

Comment by Marshall Matheson on December 15, 2009 at 3:11pm: thanks for feedback Henryk - going to update group name.

Comment by Henryk Sienkaniec on December 15, 2009 at 11:52am: heat transfer fluid is one technical term more often used, in high temperature as well as low temperature manufacturing applications.

Thanks Marschall, this very important subject for me especialy for mfg. application, such as removing heath from lubricants to prevent their rapid deterioration, and beacouse of overheating, can and will couse failure in moving working componnents.

Comment by COMSOL Multiphysics on December 15, 2009 at 11:10am: On our website we have a number of success stories and models that discuss how COMSOL Multiphysics software can be used in modeling Fluid Structure Interaction http://www.comsol.com/industry/application/struct/fsi/

Comment by Marshall Matheson on December 15, 2009 at 10:25am: Henryk - this Group is about applications where fluid needed in industrial applications - check out this link - http://www.paratherm.com/heat_transfer_fluids.asp - hope that helps.
