Laminar mixed convection of Aluminium oxide (Al2O3)–water nanofluid flow in an inclined annulus using a single-phase approach was numerically studied. Constant heat flux boundary conditions were applied on the inner and outer walls. All the thermophysical properties of nanofluid, such as, viscosity, heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and thermal expansion coefficient...

The purpose of this paper is to present optimal preconditioned iterative methods to solve indefinite linear systems of equations arising from symmetric coupling of finite elements and boundary elements [14]. This is a block-diagonal preconditioner together with a conjugate residual method (PCR) and a preconditioned inner-outer iteration (PIO). We prove the efficiency of these methods by showing...

The formation of charge-transfer complexation between dibenzo-15-crown-5 (DB15C5) and benzo-12-crown-4 (B12C4) (Donor) and iodine is investigated spectrophotometrically in three chlorinated solvents,chloroform, dichloromethane (DCM) and 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) solution at 25°C. The change in polarityof the solvent also doesn’t affect the stoichiometry of the complexes. Values of formation cons...

The profile of sealing land is a sensitive factor affecting the thermo-hydrodynamic lubrication characteristics slipper pair. In this paper, non-uniform wear running surface under was presented and defined as boundary condition. Based on finite volume method successive over-relaxation iteration method, discrete numerical model coupled with temperature, pressure, thickness oil film constructed. ...
