Prandtl Number in Classical Hard-Sphere and One-Component Plasma Fluids [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
The Prandtl number is evaluated for the three-dimensional hard-sphere and one-component plasma fluids, from the dilute weakly coupled regime up to a dense strongly coupled regime near the fluid-solid phase transition.

Proposal of a Turbulent Prandtl Number Model for Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes Approach on the Modeling of Turbulent Heat Transfer of Low-Prandtl Number Liquid Metal

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2022
Because of their high molecular heat conductivity, low-Prandtl number liquid metal is a promising candidate coolant for various designs of advanced nuclear systems such as liquid metal–cooled fast reactors and accelerator-driven sub-critical system (ADS).

Prandtl number and thermoacoustic refrigerators

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2002
From kinetic gas theory, it is known that the Prandtl number for hard-sphere monatomic gases is 2/3. Lower values can be realized using gas mixtures of heavy and light monatomic gases. Prandtl numbers varying between 0.2 and 0.67 are obtained by using gas mixtures of helium–argon, helium–krypton, and helium–xenon.

Zero-Prandtl-number convection

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 1992
The zero-Prandtl-number limit of the Oberbeck—Boussinesq equations is compared to small-Prandtl-number Rayleigh—Bénard convection through numerical simulations. Both no-slip and free-slip boundary conditions, imposed at the top and bottom of a small-aspect-ratio, horizontally periodic box are considered.

Prandtl Number of Toroidal Plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesPrandtl Number of Toroidal Plasmas
Theory of the L-mode confinement in toroidal plasmas is developed. The Prandtl number , the ratio between the ion viscosity and the thermal conductivity is obtained for the anomalous transport process which is caused by the self-sustained turbulence in ...

Nonlinear stretched flow of a radiative MHD Prandtl fluid with entropy generation and mixed convection

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
This paper examines the analysis of entropy generation in the flow of an MHD Prandtl fluid over a nonlinear stretching sheet. Heat transfer is developed through a convectively heated sheet.

Thermal Convection for Large Prandtl Numbers [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2001
The Rayleigh-Benard theory by Grossmann and Lohse [J. Fluid Mech. 407, 27 (2000)] is extended towards very large Prandtl numbers Pr. The Nusselt number Nu is found here to be independent of Pr. However, for fixed Rayleigh numbers Ra> 10^{10} a maximum around Pr= 2 in the Nu(Pr)-dependence is predicted which is absent for lower Ra.
