The effect of magnetic field on an incompressible (Kuvshiniski-Type) viscoelastic rotating fluid heated from below in porous medium is considered. For the case of stationary convection, magnetic field and medium permeability have both stabilizing and destabilizing effect on the thermal convection under some conditions whereas rotation has a stabilizing effect on the thermal convection. In the...

Vibration of laminated composite and sandwich plate under thermal loading is studied in this paper. A refined higher order theory has been used for the purpose. In order to avoid stress oscillations observed in the implementation of a displacement based finite element, the stress field derived from temperature (initial strains) have been made consistent with total strain field. So far no study ...

the effect of pulse electric field on mass transfer in sugar beet cossettes with different thicknesses were investigated and compared with traditional thermal processing. two kinds of sugar beet cossettes 3±0.5 cm and 2±0.5 thicknesses with 3–5 cm long subjected to pulse electric field (3kv, 8 µf, and 20 pulse) and compared with heat treated samples (80ºc for15 minutes) as conventional thermal ...

a lattice boltzmann method is applied to demonstrate the comparison results of simulating natural convection in an open end cavity using different hydrodynamic and thermal boundary conditions. the prandtl number in the present simulation is 0.71, rayleigh numbers are 104,105 and 106 and viscosities are selected 0.02 and 0.05. on-grid bounce-back method with first-order accuracy and non-slip met...

A numerical study is carried out to investigate the laminar forced convection heat transfer from a circular cylinder. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible, the Reynolds number ranged from 0.1 to 1000, and the Prandtl number was equal to 0.7. The range of study includes heat transfer in creeping flow (Re40). The equations were discretized by a control-volume-based finite difference techniqu...

Radiative heat transport between materials supporting surface-phonon polaritons is greatly enhanced when the materials are placed at subwavelength separation as a result of the contribution of near-field surface modes. However, the enhancement is limited to small separations due to the evanescent decay of the surface waves. In this work, we propose and numerically demonstrate an active scheme t...
