This study investigated the pool boiling heat transfer under heating surfaces with various interlaced wettability. Nano-silica particles were used as the coating element to vary the interlaced wettability of the surface. The experimental results revealed that when the wettability of a surface is uniform, the critical heat flux increases with the more wettable surface; however, when the wettabil...

in this paper, a three-dimensional finite element model has been developed to simulate the laser-tig hybrid welding (hlaw) of stainless steel 1.4418 with thickness of 4 mm. transient temperature profile and dimensions of the fusion zone and heat affected zone (haz) during welding process are calculatedusing finite element method (fem) and were solved in the abaqus/standard software.the heat sou...

In film cooling experimental studies, due to the difficulty in measuring the surface heat flux variation, a Heat Flux Ratio (HFR) equation originally derived by Mick and Mayle [1], has been widely employed to calculate the surface heat flux distribution using the measured adiabatic film effectiveness and surface temperature. A close examination of the derivation process and applications of the ...

Dissipation and flux-variance methods, derived from the turbulent kinetic energy and temperature variance budget equations in conjunction with Monin-Obukov similarity theory, were used to estimate surface fluxes of momentum and sensible heat. To examine the performance of these two methods, direct eddy correlation measurements were carried out above a nonuniform grass-covered forest clearing in...

The present analysis investigates non-Darcy forced convective heat transfer in a channel confined by two parallel walls subjected to uniform heat flux in a highly porous medium saturated with a non-Newtonian power-law fluid. Extensive numerical integrations have been carried out utilizing the Brinkman-Forchheimer extension of the Darcy model in order to study the effects of pseudoplasticity, an...

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...

The Galerkin finite element method is used to solve the three dimensional continuity, momentum and energy equations for laminar Newtonian and power-law model non-Newtonian flow through horizontal circular tube. The governing equations are non-dimensionalized with respect to specific variables and converted into algebraic equations using appropriate elements. To accelerate convergence a combinat...

Below the sill depth (at about 2400m) of the Alpha-Mendeleyev ridge complex, the waters of the Canada Basin (CB) of the Arctic Ocean are isolated, with a C isolation age of about 500 yr. The potential temperature y decreases with depth to a minimum ymE 0:524 C near 2400m, increases with depth through an approximately 300m thick transition layer to yhE 0.514 C, and then remains uniform from abou...
