Convection Heat Transfer

, 1984
As we consider simultaneous fluid flow and heat transfer in porous media, the role of the macroscopic (Darcean) and microscopic (pore-level) velocity fields on the temperature field needs to be examined.

Natural convection of air in a square cavity: A bench mark numerical solution

, 1983
Details are given of the computational method used to obtain an accurate solution of the equations describing two-dimensional natural convection in a square cavity with differentially heated side walls.

Solar Convection and Magneto-Convection

1996
We explore the general properties of convection in a solar surface layer. Our three-dimensional simulations use a tabulated equation of state that includes excitation and ionization of hydrogen and other abundant atoms, and the formation of H2 molecules. The radiative energy exchange is determined by solving the radiative transfer equation.

Convective Plumes in a Convective Field

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1970
Abstract The theory of isolated turbulent plumes given earlier is used to study a field of plumes. Each plume is immersed in the turbulent downdraft which comprises the return flow. The field of flow is specified by three parameters: the heat flux into the atmosphere at the surface, the depth of the convecting layer, and the intensity of turbulence at ...

ENTHALPY-POROSITY TECHNIQUE FOR MODELING CONVECTION-DIFFUSION PHASE CHANGE: APPLICATION TO THE MELTING OF A PURE METAL

, 1988
The melting of pure gallium in a rectangular cavity has been numerically investigated using the enthalpy-porosity approach for modeling combined convection-diffusion phase change.

Rotation, convection, and magnetic activity in lower main-sequence stars

, 1984
Rotation periods are reported for 14 main-sequence stars, bringing the total number of such stars with well-determined rotation periods to 41. It is found that the mean level of their Ca n H and K emission (averaged over 15 years) is correlated with ...

Conduction and Convection [PDF]

open access: possible, 1991
As we discussed in Chapter 8, our knowledge of the pore-level fluid mechanics in two-phase flow through porous media is rather incomplete. In this chapter, we discuss thermal dispersion, i.e., convective heat transfer at the pore level, using the available knowledge about the subject. This knowledge is even more inconclusive.
