Condensation on a Vertical Plate With Sinusoidal Microfins

Journal of Heat Transfer, 2022
Abstract A theoretically based, approximate solution for condensation on horizontal, microfinned tubes has been used as a basis to obtain a relation between heat flux and vapor-surface temperature difference for condensation on a vertical plate with sinusoidal microfins.

Flow Past a Suddenly Cooled Vertical Plate

IMA Journal of Applied Mathematics, 1978
An analysis is presented for steady free-convection flow past a semi-infinite vertical flat plate at large Grashof numbers. If it is assumed that the wall temperature varies as a power of the distance from the leading edge of the plate, then the governing equations can be reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations by the use of a similarity ...

Waves ahead of a vertical plate in a channel

Fluid Dynamics, 1999
The behavior of disturbances propagating with supercritical speed ahead of a plate in a channel is analyzed on the basis of the experimental results obtained by the authors and data taken from the literature. In particular, the transition from smooth to breaking waves has been found to occur at higher propagation speeds than follows from the first ...

Disturbed film flow on a vertical plate

The Physics of Fluids, 1987
Flow of incompressible Newtonian liquid films is governed by the Navier–Stokes system with shear-free, balanced-normal-stress, and kinematic boundary conditions at the free surface. This system is solved here for the evolution of finite-amplitude two-dimensional disturbances to otherwise steady flow down a vertical plate by means of a finite element ...

Wave forces on a submerged vertical plate

Journal of Engineering Mathematics, 1973
A vertical plate of finite length and depth is attacked by gravity waves in water of finite depth. The forces and moments acting on the plate are computed by using the theory of linearized waves. The forces depend on three dimensionless parameters combining the draft, length, water depth and wave length and on the angle of attack.

Vertical land motion of the Australian plate

2021
The surface deformation field on Earth represents an integrated response to a complex array of geophysical processes that occur over different temporal and spatial scales. High-accuracy measurements of surface deformation can therefore inform our understanding of processes ranging from past and present mass loading (e.g.

Vertical Uplift Explanation for Plate Tectonics

AAPG Bulletin, 1973
Abstract Uplift and collapse of segments of the earth’s oceanic crust can explain many of the data reported by oceanographers during the past 15 years. Common engineering principles can explain the major oceanic features as the results of uplift, cooling, and collapse of the crust caused by heat, gravity, and isostatic response.

Waves produced by a vertically oscillating plate

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1987
The vertical oscillation of a plate partially immersed in a non-wetting fluid produces a radiated wavetrain when the contact line between the plate and the free surface of the fluid cannot move freely along the plate. Realistic conditions to apply at the contact line when capillarity is not negligible include the dynamic variation of the contact angle ...

Pure Steam Condensation Experiments on Nonisothermal Vertical Plates

Journal of Heat Transfer, 1992
Pure steam condensation experiments on flat channel plates have been performed. To provide a range of values of the governing groups NTU and Ad, steam was condensed crosscurrentwise on polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) plates and cocurrentwise on brass plates (8.0 × 10−6 ≤ Ad ≤ 8.4 × 10−2, 0 ≤ NTU−1 ≤ 10). The theoretical predictions, based on an analysis
