Improved Perturbation Solutions for Laminar Natural Convection on a Vertical Cylinder

چکیده

The method of extended perturbation series is applied to solve for laminar natural convection from an isothermal, thin vertical cylinder. The series in terms of the transverse curvature parameter ~ extended to five terms and is subsequently improved by applying the Shanks transformation twice. The validity of the solution is extended up to ~ = 10 and possibly even beyond. Up to = 10, the results for wall shear as well as the local and average Nusselt numbers agree very closely with those of local nonsimilarity and finite difference solutions. The ease of computation coupled with high accuracy makes the present approach far more attractive than the currently popular local nonsimilarity and finite difference methods. Its success with the present problem should motivate applications to a host of nonsimilar boundary layer flows. Verbesserte Stfrungsl6sungen ftir laminare freie Konvektion am senkrechten Zylinder Zusammenfassung. Die Methode der erweiterten Strrungsserien wird auf die laminare freie Konvektion am isothermen senkrechten diirmen Zylinder angewendet. Die Serien in Ausdriicken des Kriimmungsparameters ~ werden auf 5 Terme ausgedehnt mad welter durch doppelte Auswertung der Shank-Transformation verbessert. Die Lrsung gilt mindestens bis ~ = 10, vielleicht sogar welter. Bis ~ = 10 stimmen die Lrsungen ftir die Wandschubspanhung mad die 6rtliche trod mittlere NuBelt-Zahl gut tiberein mit jenen, die auf der 6rtlichen Nicht-Ahnlichkeit mad finiten Differenzen beruhen. Die leichte Berechenbarkeit und die hohe Genauigkeit machen diesen Lrsungsweg attraktiver als die heute popul~iren Verfahren der 6rtlichen Nicht-)khnlichkeit mad der finlten Differenzen. Der hier aufgezeigte Erfolg sollte zur Anwendung auf nlcht4ihnliche Grenzschichtstr0mungen motivieren.

Transient Natural Convection Flow on an Isothermal Vertical Wall at High Prandtl Numbers: Second-Order Approximation

The method of matched asymptotic expansions, which has been used in previous studies of steady natural convection flow, is extended here to transient natural convection flow at high Prandtl number (Pr). Second-order expansion solutions, valid for large Prandtl numbers, are presented for the transient natural convection flow near a vertical surface which undergoes a step change in temperature. T...

Combined Radiation and Natural Convection in Participating Laminar Flow Over a Vertical Circular Pin

The interaction of thermal radiation with conduction and laminar natural convection in a vertical circular pin, situated at participating gas, is numerically investigated. An absorbing and emitting gas is considered, and treated to be a gray participating media. Under the idealizing of gray gas, the Rosselan4 approximation is employed to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. ...

On the natural convective heat transfer from a cold horizontal cylinder over an adiabatic surface

A steady two-dimensional laminar free convection heat transfer from a cold horizontal isothermal cylinder located above an adiabatic floor is studied both experimentally and numerically. In the experimental measurements the effects of cylinder distance from horizontal floor to its diameter (L/D) on heat transfer coefficient is studied for Rayleigh numbers of 3×105 and 6×105. Computations are ma...

Non-Darcian Mixed Convection Flow in Vertical Composite Channels with Hybrid Boundary Conditions

In this article, the effects of viscous dissipation and inertial force on the velocity and temperature distributions of the mixed convection laminar flow in a vertical channel partly filled with a saturated porous medium have been studied. In this regard, the Brinkman–Forchheimer extended Darcy model was adopted for the fluid flow in the porous region. In addition, three different viscous dissi...
