Mixed Convection on Inclined Surfaces

Journal of Heat Transfer, 1979
An analysis is performed to study the effects of buoyancy force on the heat transfer characteristics of laminar forced convection flow over an inclined flat surface which is either maintained at a uniform temperature or subjected to a uniform heat flux.

Solar Radiation on Inclined Surfaces

Nature, 1965
IT is interesting to compare Dr. H. Heywood's proposed presentation of solar radiation data1 with a method developed at this Station2. This method makes the simplifying assumption that the diffuse sky radiation is uniformly distributed, except in the vicinity of the Sun where the radiance is known to be higher.

Solar radiation on inclined surfaces

Solar Energy, 1990
Measured solar radiation data for one location in Lesotho is used to test the applicability of two theoretical models for computing total solar radiation on inclined surfaces. The models selected for discussion are the isotropic model suggested by Liu and Jordan and the anisotropic model by Hay.

Monkey locomotion on inclined surfaces

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1969
AbstractMotion pictures were taken of a subadult, female squirrel monkey moving on level and inclined surfaces. The gaits for the various degrees of incline were compared. The noncontact periods were not affected by changes in inclination. The contact periods, which were inversely related to speed, were affected, by changes in slope and intersect ...

Control of upright stance over inclined surfaces

Experimental Brain Research, 2007
The present work investigated the control of upright posture on inclined surfaces (14 degrees). Such conditions could, for example, change the contributions of muscle spindles resulting in alterations in postural sway. Subjects stood in quiet stance over a force platform positioned in one of three different fixed positions: horizontal (H), toes-up ...

Ring formation on an inclined surface

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2015
A drop dried on a solid surface will typically leave a narrow band of solute deposited along the contact line. Here we examine variations of this deposit due to the inclination of the substrate using numerical simulations of a two-dimensional drop, equivalent to a strip-like drop.

Inclined and Oblique Surfaces

1981
Figures 146 and 147 show the difference between inclined and oblique planes. V.T. indicates their vertical traces and H.T. their horizontal traces.

Viscoplastic flow over an inclined surface

Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics, 2006
We review viscoplastic flow over inclined surfaces, focusing on constant-flux extrusions from small vents and the slumping of a fixed volume of material. Lubrication theory is used for shallow and slow flows to reduce the governing equations to a nonlinear diffusion-type equation for the local fluid depth; this model is used as the basis for ...

Film Condensation on Inclined Plane Surfaces

Journal of Heat Transfer, 1975
An experimental investigation of the effect of reduced gravity forces on film condensation heat transfer rates was carried out. Reduced gravity conditions parallel to the condensing surface were obtained by condensing saturated steam at atmospheric pressure on one surface of a copper block whose inclination to the vertical could be varied giving ...

Solar radiation on inclined surfaces

Solar Energy, 1966
Abstract To predict the amount of solar energy falling on inclined absorbing surfaces, such as absorbers for solar hot-water services, several formulas have been published by authors in this field. These are based on measurements of sunshine hours, cloud cover, total solar energy falling on a horizontal surface or both total and diffuse solar energy ...
