ABSTRACT

Abstract should not exceed 500 words

What is the motivation to undertake the work

What are the objectives

What are the major findings
The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, the principal results and major conclusions.
An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself.

TABLES
Table 2.1 Summary of the literature on heat transfer and fluid flow distribution on smooth flat plate impinged by an unconfined single jet
Sl. No. 1 Author and Year of Publication Lytle and Webb, 1994 Geometry Parameters varied with ranges Re = 3600 to 27000 z/d= 0.1 to 1 and 6 z/d = 2 to 14 Re = 23000 z/d = 0.2 to 10 Re = 15000 to 45000 z/d = 1.0 to 10 Re = 30000 to 70000 Measurement technique Remarks

Long tube circular jet d = 7.8 and 10.9 mm l/d = = 83

Lee et al.,2004

Circular jet d = 13.6, 21.6 and 34 mm, l/d = 58 Zhou Sharp edged circular et al.,2006 nozzle (orifice) with mesh screen d =25 mm Ozmen and Converging round Baydar, nozzle with exit dia. 2008 d= 12.6 mm

Laser Doppler velocimeter U-tube manometer Thin foil heater and IR Imaging radiometer Liquid crystal thermographytechnique Hot wire anemometer Thermocouples Hot wire probe

For z/d < 0.25, secondary peak Nu are higher than Nuo particularly for higher Re. Stagnation point Nu are correlated with Re and z/d. Increase in jet momentum and turbulence intensity with larger nozzle diameter results in higher Nu at stagnation point. Mesh screen located at nozzle exit decreases the length of potential core and significant enhancement in Nuo for small nozzle to plate spacing Stagnation point Nu are correlated with Re and z/d. Secondary peaks in local Nu are observed at z/d 3.0 and Re 50000. The peaks in local Nu and radial turbulence intensity are seen to be compatible. Optimum z/d for max. Nuo is 5.0 Secondary peaks in local Nu are observed at z/d = 1.5 and Re 20000

Hot wire anemometer IR Thermal Imaging technique

Liu et al., 2008

Circular jet d = 9.5 mm l/d = 1.0

z/d = 1.5 to 12 Re = 10000 to 60000

Temperature and pressure sensitive paint coatings on target are used to collect local temperature and pressure data

Heading of the table always comes at the top of the TAble

Table number 1.2 1 represents the chapter number 1.2 2 represents the table number Put always the reference from which the table is being taken without fail The title of the table should not have a full stop at the end because it is not forming a sentence The title of the table is to be justified centrally (centre justification needs to be used) The table should be embedded aptly A sentence referring to this table should always come before embedding the table in the middle of the text.

EQUATIONS

Equations

are numbered the same way as figures and table are

numbered Ex: 3.2 3 represents Chapter 3 2 represents second equation in chapter 3 The number is to be right justified Best way to get this is to make a table and remove the lines

CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW Each chapter would have subsections and sub-subsection Example 2.1 under whom we would have 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3 At the end of the literature review, generally, there should be conclusions/Voids in the literature It is a good idea to summarise all the literature in the form of Tables so that the reader gets the BIRDS EYE VIEW On the basis of the voids in the literature and the problem to be solved (keeping the application in mind) the objectives of the problem are set-out.

CHAPTER 3.n-1 Each chapter subsequent to literature review would have subsections and sub-subsection Example n.1 under whom we would have n.1.1, n.1.2, n.1.3 At the beginning of each chapter, there should be n.1 Introduction In this subsection, following points are to be covered Connection between the previous chapter to the present chapter What is to be expected in that chapter ? At the end of each chapter, generally, there should be conclusions that are broadly drawn from the work presented in the nth Chapter. Conclusions should be self-sufficient. If someone has not read the chapter, but wants to get the crux/gist of that chapter, he/she should be able to grasp by just reading the conclusions portion

CHAPTER n CONCLUSIONS Conclusions should be self-sufficient. If someone has not read the report, but wants to get the crux/gist of that report, he/she should be able to grasp by just reading the conclusions portion Focus should be there on the major contributions of the present work ie., what is the outcome of the work which is different from the existing literature with proper reasoning

APPENDIX Detailed information,lengthy derivations, raw experimental observations etc. are to be presented in the separate appendices, which shall be numbered in Roman Capitals (e.g.Appendix IV) Since reference can be drawn to published/unpublished literature in the appendices these should precede the Literature Cited section

REFERENCES The names of all the authors along with their initials and the full title of the article/monogram/book etc. have to be given in addition to the journals/publishers, volume, number, pages(s)and year of publication Follow the style of citation and style of listing in one of the standard journals in the subject area consistently throughout his/her thesis Citation from websites should include the names(s) of author(s) ( including the initials), full title of the article, website reference and when last accessed. Reference to personal communications, similarly, shall include the author, title of the communication (if any ) and date of receipt

Page number 1 for the first page of the Introduction chapter shall not appear in print, only the second page will bear the number 2.

The subsequent chapters shall begin on a fresh page (fresh odd number page in case of double sided printing).
When header style is chosen the first page of each chapter will not have the header and the page number shall be printed at the center of the footer. Pagination for pages before the Introduction chapter shall be in lower case Roman numerals, e.g., iv.

PARAGRAPH FORMAT
Vertical space between paragraphs shall be about 2.5 line spacing. The first line of each paragraph should normally be indented by five characters or 12mm. A candidate may, however, choose not to indent if (s) he has provided sufficient paragraph separation. A paragraph should normally comprise more than one line. A single line of a paragraph shall not be left at the top or bottom of a page (that is, no windows or orphans should be left) The word at the right end of the first line of a page or paragraph should, as far as possible, not be hyphenated.

2.2 Chapter and Section Format 2.2.1 Chapter Each chapter shall begin on a fresh page (odd number page in case of double sided printing) with an additional top margin of about 75mm. Chapter number (in HinduArabic) and title shall be printed at the center of the line in 6mm font size (18pt) in bold face using both upper and lower case (all capitals or small capitals shall not be used).
