in the present paper, an analysis was carried out to investigate effects of radiation on a free convection flow bounded by a vertical surface embedded in a porous medium with constant suction velocity. it was under the influence of uniform magnetic field in the presence of a homogenous chemical reaction and viscous dissipation with constant heat and mass flux. the non-dimensional governing equa...

Using a nonlocal time-dependent theory of convection, we have calculated the linear non-adiabatic oscillations of the Horizontal Branch (HB) stars, with both the dynamic and thermodynamic coupling between convection and oscillations carefully treated. Turbulent pressure and turbulent viscosity have been included consistently in our equations of non-adiabatic pulsation. When the coupling between...

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...

Cloud cover and relative humidity in the tropics are strongly influenced by organized atmospheric convection, which occurs across a range of spatial and temporal scales. One mode of organization that is found in idealized numerical modeling simulations is self-aggregation, a spontaneous transition from randomly distributed convection to organized convection despite homogeneous boundary conditio...

Several approaches to numerical modelling of liquid droplet heating and evaporation by convection and radiation from the surrounding hot gas are discussed. The finite thermal conductivity of liquid, recirculation in droplets, and time dependence of gas temperature and the convection heat transfer coefficient are taken into account. For the constant and almost constant convection heat transfer c...

In this paper, we have studied the effect of radiation, magnetic field on the mixed convection flow of a magneto-micropolar fluid past a continuously moving surface with suction and blowing. The governing equations have been reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by similarity transformations, which have been solved numerically using finite difference method. The effec...

Two modelling approaches of transient heat transfer by free convection in a packed bed of spheres are carried out and then, compared with experimental results. The first approach uses computational fluid dynamics software which directly solves the NavierStokes equations and the local energy equations in the fluid and solid phases. It also includes radiation between the solid surfaces. The secon...

The interaction of mixed convection with thermal radiation of an optical dense viscous fluid adjacent to an isothermal cone imbedded in a porous medium with Rosseland diffusion approximation incorporating the variation of permeability and thermal conductivity is numerically investigated. The transformed conservation laws are solved numerically for the case of variable surface temperature condit...
