in this paper, conjugate heat transfer of magneto hydrodynamic mixed convection of nanofluid about a vertical slender hollow cylinder embedded in a porous medium with high porosity have been numerically studied. the forchheimer’s modification of darcy’s law was used in representing the nanofluid motion inside the porous media. the governing boundary layer equations were transformed to non-dimen...

the effect of partial slip and temperature dependent fluid properties on the mhd mixed convection flow from a heated, non-linearly stretching surface in the presence of radiation and non-uniform internal heat generation/absorption is investigated. the velocity of the stretching surface was assumed to vary according to power-law form. thermal transport is analyzed for two types of non-isothermal...

in this paper, mixed convection of al2o3-eg-water nanofluid in a square lid-driven enclosure is investigated numerically. the focus of this study is on the effects of variable thermophysical properties of the nanofluid on the heat transfer characteristics. the top moving and the bottom stationary horizontal walls are insulated, while the vertical walls are kept at different constant temperature...

in this work, the steady and laminar mixed convection of nanofluid in horizontal concentric annulus withrotating inner cylinder is investigated numerically. the inner and outer cylinders are kept at constanttemperature ti and to respectively, where ti>to. the annular space is filled with alumina-water nanofluid.the governing equations with the corresponded boundary conditions in the polar coord...

Heat and vapour convective surface coefficients are required in practically all heat and vapour transport calculations. In building envelope research, such coefficients are often assumed constants for a set of conditions. Heat transfer surface coefficients are often determined using empirical correlations based on measurements of different geometry and flows. Vapour transfer surface coefficient...

When sufficient energy is steadily supplied to a fluid, the ensuing dynamical behavior involves many spatial and temporal scales and energy is dissipated efficiently. For instance when sufficiently strong heat is supplied against the pull of gravity to a fluid, the heat flux due to fluid flow convection exceeds the heat flux due to molecular diffusion. The average of heat flux is quantified in ...

Thermomagnetic convection in a differentially heated square cavity with an infinitely long third dimension is numerically simulated using the single relaxation time lattice Boltzmann method LBM . This problem is of considerable interest when dealing with cooling of microelectronic devices, in situations where natural convection does not meet the cooling requirements, and forced convection is no...

flow field and heat transfer of a nanofluid, whose non-newtonian behavior has been demonstrated in the laboratory, in a square enclosure have been numerically modeled and investigated. to estimate the viscosity of nanofluid, experimental data of hong and kim, 2012 have been used, and a new model has been proposed. finally, the obtained results have been compared to those of newtonian behavior. ...
