Previous formulations of heating and transport associated with strong magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence are generalized to incorporate separate internal energy equations for electrons and protons. Electron heat conduction is included. Energy is supplied by turbulent heating that affects both electrons and protons, and is exchanged between them via collisions. Comparison to available Ulysses ...

This paper demonstrates the deterministic errors in thermocouple measurements, or bias, through numerical simulation and illustrates the impact of these erroneous measurements on inverse heat conduction problem solutions. The case of molten metal solidifying through cooling in a sand mold is considered. Artificial data for the sand surface temperature and at two different locations below the sa...

Micro-Channel Heat Sink is a heat exchanger which is used to control the temperature of electronic devices with high heat flux. A comprehensive thermal model for the micro-channels should include three dimensional conduction analysis in the solid body together with three dimensional developing fluid flow as well as heat transfer analyses in the fluid section. This paper reports on a research ...

Internal radiation was investigated using the finite volume method for the heat exchanger method (HEM) growth of oxide crystals. Special attention was devoted to the temperature and thermal stress distributions in the bottom region of the grown crystal at the end of the solidification process. The numerical results show that internal radiation strongly strengthens heat transport through the cry...

Transient grating (TG) spectroscopy is an important experimental technique to measure mean free path (MFP) spectra using observations of quasiballistic heat conduction. To obtain MFP spectra, the measurements must be interpreted within the framework of the frequency-dependent Boltzmann transport equation (BTE), but previous solutions have restricted validity due to simplifying assumptions. Here...
