the present article focuses on the evaluation of a first-moment closure model applicable to film cooling flow and heat transfer computations. the present first-moment closure model consists of a higher level of turbulent heat flux modeling in which two additional transport equations for temperature variance kθ and its dissipation rate εθ are considered. it not only employs a time scale that is ...

Blood flow in a narrow tube is described using the two-layered model in presence of an external uniform magnetic field. The model consists of a core region, enriched with various types of blood cells and a cell-free peripheral plasma layer. Also the constant heat flux convective heat transfer to fully developed blood flow is studied. The velocity and temperature profiles are determined. The exp...

A steady three-dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer viscous flow and heat transfer due to a permeable stretching sheet with prescribed surface heat flux is studied in presence of a uniform applied magnetic field transverse to the flow. Using the implicit finite-difference scheme, known as the Keller-box method, the nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved. The veloci...

The heat and mass transfer analysis for MHD Casson fluid boundary layer flow over a permeable stretching sheet through a porous medium is carried out. The effect of non-uniform heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction are considered in heat and mass transport equations correspondingly. The heat transfer analysis has been carried out for two different heating processes namely; the prescr...

in this paper the optimal control of boundary heat flux in a 2-d solid body with an arbitrary shape is performed in order to achieve the desired temperature distribution at a given time interval. the boundary of the body is subdivided into a number of components. on each component a time-dependent heat flux is applied which is independent of the others. since the thermophysical properties are t...

[1] We studied the thermomechanical effects on surface heat flow near major faults from positive feedback between temperature-dependent thermal conductivity k(T)∝ (1/T) and frictional heating in a crust-lithosphere system using finite element simulations. Variable conductivity and frictional heating cause a drastic reduction in the thermal conductivity, and these changes can impact the heat flu...

For many natural and agricultural landscapes, vegetation partially covers the ground surface, resulting in significant variations in soil heat flux between interspace areas and underneath vegetation. This is particularly apparent in arid and semiarid regions where vegetation cover is low and clustered or ‘clumped’ with large areas of exposed soil. Surface heterogeneity presents significant chal...

A comprehensive analysis of bioheat transport through a double layer and multilayer biological media is presented in this work. Analytical solutions have been developed for blood and tissue phase temperatures and overall heat exchange correlations, incorporating thermal conduction in tissue and vascular system, blood-tissue convective heat exchange, metabolic heat generation, and imposed heat f...
