abstract: in this paper, a new population-based search called the bees algorithm (ba) is presented to estimate the time-dependent heat transfer coefficient and the corresponding heat flux at the boundaries of a two-dimensional body subjected to transient heat conduction, using the temperature measurements at discrete nodal locations on the boundaries, where heat flux is specified as the boundar...

In recent years, there has been interest in employing atomistic computations to inform macroscale thermal transport analyses. In heat conduction simulations in semiconductors and dielectrics, for example, classical molecular dynamics (MD) is used to compute phonon relaxation times, from which material thermal conductivity may be inferred and used at the macroscale. A drawback of this method is ...

A heat conduction equation on a lattice composed of nodes and bonds is formulated assuming the Fourier law energy conservation law. Based this equation, we propose higher-order topological model breathing kagome lattice. We show that temperature measurement at conner node can detect corner state which causes rapid toward bath, several-nodes determine precise states.

Non-Fourier heat transfer analysis of functionally graded (FG) spherical shells subjected to the radiative-convective boundary conditions at their inner and outer surfaces are presented. It is assumed that the material properties have continuous variations along the thickness direction. The incremental differential quadrature method (IDQM) as an accurate and computationally efficient numerical ...

I study non-radiative cooling of X-ray emitting gas via heat conduction along magnetic field lines inside magnetic flux loops in cooling flow clusters of galaxies. I find that such heat conduction can reduce the fraction of energy radiated in the X-ray band by a factor of ∼ 1.5− 2. This non-radiative cooling joins two other proposed non-radiative cooling processes, which can be more efficient. ...

Fuzzy set theory is applied to quantify the non-probabilistic uncertainty alternatively termed as epistemic uncertainty. An algorithm “Fuzzy Centered Radius” has been developed for quantification of epistemic uncertainty. Uncertainty analysis is also carried out using fuzzy vertex method. Analytical solution of one dimension heat conduction and numerical solution of heat removal from circular f...

This research deals with heat and mass transfer in biscuit industrial baking ovens. In these ovens, heat reaches biscuits indirectly by radiation, convection and conduction. The method for numerical solution is that we first provide the related equations, then they are discretized by finite difference method (FDM), and finally, after encoding and writing a program for the computer, we run it. T...
