In this study, a reputable Kalina cycle system, KCS 11, is simulated and analysed. Within this efficient cycle, there are three heat exchangers: the first heat exchanger is designated for heat absorption from the heat source, the second heat exchanger is designed for heat release to the cold source, and the third heat exchanger is designed for energy recovery. In order to achieve precise si...

We have investigated an unsteady flow of a viscous, incompressible electrically conducting, laminar free convection boundary layer flow of a moving infinite vertical plate in a radiative and chemically reactive medium in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. The equations governing the flow are solved by Laplace transform technique. The expressions for velocity, temperature, concentratio...

Numerical solutions obtained by the Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method are presented for two dimensional steady-state heat conduction problems. The MLPG method is a truly meshless approach, and neither the nodal connectivity nor the background mesh is required for solving the initial-boundary-value problem. The penalty method is adopted to efficiently enforce the essential boundary co...

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convection flow of Cu–water nanofluid inside a two-sided lid-driven square enclosure with adiabatic horizontal walls and differentially heated sidewalls has been investigated numerically. The effects of moving lids direction, variations of Richardson number, Hartmann number, and volume fraction of nanoparticles on flow and temperature fields have been studied. Th...

In this article, a time dependent partial differential equation is used to model the nonlinear boundary value problem describing heat transfer through a radial porous moving fin with rectangular profile. The study is performed by applying a numerical solver in MATLAB (pdepe), which is a centered finite difference scheme. The thermal conductivity and fin surface emissivity are linearly ...

Crystallization of polymeric materials is a solidification process in strong interaction with heat conduction. Both of the basic mechanisms involved in the solidification from a melt, namely the nucleation and growth of crystals, are strongly influenced by the temperature and its variation. Vice versa, the latent heat is rather large for polymeric materials, so that it causes a considerable cha...

An investigation has been made to analyze the effects of viscous dissipation on the heat transfer characteristics for both hydro-dynamically and thermally fully developed, laminar shear driven flow between two infinitely long parallel plates, where the upper plate is moving in an axial direction at a constant speed. On the basis of some routine assumptions made in the literature, a close form a...

A modified VG model considering both pore ratio and temperature effect is constructed. Based on the wet-thermal elasticity theory mixture theory, coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) equations for moisture migration, heat transfer, deformation in unsaturated soil are derived. The numerical implementation of was implemented by secondary development finite element platform. validity established ...

the heat and mass transfer analysis for mhd casson fluid boundary layer flow over a permeable stretching sheet through a porous medium is carried out. the effect of non-uniform heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction are considered in heat and mass transport equations correspondingly. the heat transfer analysis has been carried out for two different heating processes namely; the prescr...
