afinite element model is developed for simulation of the curing process of a thick axisymmetric rubber article reinforced by metal plates during the molding and cooling stages. the model consists of the heat transfer equation and a newly developed kinetics model for the determination of the state of cure in the rubber. the latter is based on the modification of the well-known kamal-sourour mode...

in this paper, the axisymmetric corrugated diaphragm using finite element method will be discussed, so that half of these diaphragms’ cross sections and later the applied pressure will be considered. following this, using the consequent equations and visual basic software, a computer program will be provided which receives the diaphragms’ particulars such as diameter, thickness, pressure and th...

The increasing use of highly integrated circuits in portable electronics, which may operate for relatively short periods of time, has opened the possibility of utilizing heat storage to maintain device temperatures below reliability limits. The present study considers a strategy in which the power dissipation of a device is periodically reduced and increased in order to decrease its peak temper...

The Spalart and Allmaras turbulence model has been implemented in a numerical code to study the compressible turbulent flows, which the system of governing equations is solved with a finite volume approach using a structured grid. The AUSM scheme is used to calculate the inviscid fluxes. Different benchmark problems have been computed to validate the implementation and numerical results are sho...

Using a transient mathematical heat transfer model including heat conduction, radiation, and radio frequency (RF) induction heating, we numerically investigate the time evolution of temperature gradients in axisymmetric growth apparatus during sublimation growth of silicon carbide (SiC) bulk single crystals by physical vapor transport (PVT) (modified Lely method). Temperature gradients on the g...
