(Z)-2-(2-Isopropyl-5-methylphenoxy)-N`-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)acetohydrazide

In the title Mannich base, C20H21N3O3, an isatin derivative of thymol the O-CH2-C(=O)-N(H)-N fragment connecting the aromatic and fused-ring systems is approximately planar, with the N-N single bond in a Zmconfiguration. The amino H atom of this N-N fragment is intramolecularly hydrogen bonded to the carbonyl O atom of the indolinone fused ring as well as to the phenoxy O atom of the aromat ring. The amino H atom of the indoline fused ring forms a hydrogen bond with the double-bond O atom of an adjacent molecule, this hydrogen bond giving rise to a linear chain motif.

EFFECT OF PLUME DYNAMICS FOR HEAT TRANSFER ENHANCEMENT AT SOLID-LIQUID INTERFACE

The present paper analyzes the effects of plumes for heat transfer enhancement at solid-liquid interface taking both smooth and grooved surfaces. The experimental setup consists of a tank of dimensions 265 x 265 x 300 (height) containing water. The bottom surface was heated and free surface of the water was left open to the ambient. In the experiments, the bottom plate had either a smooth surface or a grooved surface. We used 90 V-grooved rough surfaces with two groove heights, 10mm and 3mm. The experiment was done with water layer depths of 90mm and 140mm, corresponding to values of aspect ratio(AR) equal to 2.9 and 1.8 respectively. Thymol blue, a pH sensitive dye, was used to visualize the flow near the heated plate. The measured heat transfer coefficients over the grooved surfaces were higher compared that over the smooth surface. The enhanced heat transport in the rough cavities cannot be ascribed to the increase in the contact area, rather it must be the local dynamics of the thermal boundary layer that changes the heat transport over the rough surface.
