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

INVESTIGATION OF CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER FOR HIGH INTEGRAL FINNED TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER [PDF]
The numerical investigation has been performed in this work to evaluate the performance of a triangular finned tube heat exchanger. In numerical work, the effect of space (2.5, 3 and 3.5 mm) distance between every two finned shaped and the volumetric ...

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 ...

Convectively driven shear and decreased heat flux [PDF]
We report on direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional, horizontally periodic Rayleigh-B\'enard convection, focusing on its ability to drive large-scale horizontal flow that is vertically sheared. For the Prandtl numbers ($Pr$) between 1 and 10 simulated here, this large-scale shear can be induced by raising the Rayleigh number ($Ra ...

Correlation of internal flow structure with heat transfer efficiency in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection [PDF]
To understand how internal flow structures manifest themselves in the global heat transfer, we study the correlation between different flow modes and the instantaneous Nusselt number ($Nu$) in a two-dimensional square Rayleigh-B\'enard convection cell.

Asymptotic Nusselt numbers for internal flow in the Cassie state [PDF]
We consider laminar, fully-developed, Poiseuille flows of liquid in the Cassie state through diabatic, parallel-plate microchannels symmetrically textured with isoflux ridges. Through the use of matched asymptotic expansions we analytically develop expressions for (apparent hydrodynamic) slip lengths and variously-defined Nusselt numbers.
