Understanding thermal transport from nanoscale hot spots is important for a fundamental description of energy transport in materials, as well as many technological applications including thermal management in nanoelectronics, thermoelectric devices, nano-enhanced photovoltaics and nanoparticle-mediated thermal therapies. Heat transfer at the nanoscale is fundamentally different from that at the...

The dynamical effects of magnetic fields in models of radiative, Herbig-Haro (HH) jets have been studied in a number of papers. For example, magnetized, radiative jets from variable sources have been studied with axisymmetric and 3D numerical simulations. In this paper, we present an analytic model describing the effect of a toroidal magnetic field on the internal working surfaces that result f...

There is a natural relationship to the post-Newtonian expansion scheme that is used to describe sources of gravity which are not too far from Newtonian, i.e, not too relativistic. Here the expantion can lead to the solutions for the exterior fields of such sources. Till now the post-Newtonian expansion known to high order, in some cases 8 th order. This paper has provided a high order expansion...

The planar and axisymmetric variable-density flows induced in a quiescent gas by a concentrated source of momentum that is simultaneously either a source or a sink of energy are investigated for application to the description of the velocity and temperature far fields in laminar gaseous jets with either large or small values of the initial jet-to-ambient temperature ratio. The source fluxes of ...

The technique of tracing along magnetic field lines is widely used in magnetospheric physics to provide a ‘‘magnetic frame of reference’’ that facilitates both the planning of experiments and the interpretation of observations. The precision of any such magnetic frame of reference depends critically on the accurate representation of the various sources of magnetic field in the magnetosphere. In...

This paper presents a technique of surface field reconstruction for nonseparable geometry based on the boundary element method and the singular value decomposition. The sound sources are axisymmetric bodies with arbitrary boundary conditions. The hologram data are got from a cylindrical surface that encircles the source. By the use of axisymmetric property of the body, the two-dimensional integ...

The paper describes a computational experiment and presents the results of numerical modeling an axisymmetric body with optimized shape minimum aerodynamic drag force as heat sink in convective gas flow. resulting coincides streamlines, which is main advantage, since no separation flow from surface observed around. Thus, entire area will be effective sink, unlike other known shapes, due to temp...

In this paper a numerical method is used to study the unsteady state natural convection heat transfer within a confined porous media with uniform internal heat generation. The governing equations based on the Darcy model and Bossiness approximations are solved, using the finite difference Alternating Direction Implicit (ADI) method. The developed program was used to simulate natural convection ...
