Analysis of Dual Heat Sources in a Partially Open Enclosure
In this study a partially open enclosure with two heat sources is examined to determine the Nusselt number along the hot wall. The first part of the study examines the effect of the Rayleigh number ratio on the Nusselt number. The largest Rayleigh number

Asymptotic Nusselt numbers for internal flow in the Cassie state
We consider laminar, fully developed, Poiseuille flows of liquid in the Cassie state through diabatic, parallel-plate microchannels symmetrically textured with isoflux ridges. Via matched asymptotic expansions, we develop expressions for (apparent hydrodynamic) slip lengths and Nusselt numbers. Our small parameter ( $\epsilon$

Nusselt Number and Convection Heat Transfer Coefficient for a Coaxial Heat Exchanger Using Al2O3-Water pH=5 Nanofluid [PDF]
Recently, a new class of fluid made up of metal nano-particles in suspension in a liquid, called nanofluid, appeared. Some numerical studies have shown that these new fluids have a higher heat transfer performance, compared with the conventional liquids.

Transition of thermally induced flow in a square cavity using Spectral Method [PDF]
This study presents a novel mesh-free method for simulating natural convection in a square cavity filled with Newtonian fluid. The proposed algorithm integrates mesh-free Spectral methods with the Moving Collocation Element (MCOE) technique and employs a

A study of flow interference and heat transfer between two-cylinders at different orientations
A numerical investigation is carried out for the different orientations of a circular cylinder where the upstream cylinder moves with varying angles α = 0˚, 30˚, 45˚, 60˚, 90˚ with respect to the downstream cylinder in a fixed position at a gap ratio (L ...

Rigorous upper limits on the vertical heat transport in two dimensional Rayleigh-Benard convection between stress-free isothermal boundaries are derived from the Boussinesq approximation of the Navier-Stokes equations. The Nusselt number Nu is bounded in

Stationary convection-diffusion between two co-axial cylinders [PDF]
In this note, we examine the high Peclet number limit of the stationary extended Graetz problem for which two families of real and imaginary eigenvalues are associated, respectively, with a downstream convective relaxation and the upstream diffusive ...
