natural convection between vertical parallel plates occurs frequently in applications such as solar collectors and cooling of electronic instruments. the problem is a two dimensional developing buoyant flow. in this work, the two dimensional conservation equations are solved numerically for constant wall temperature and constant wall heat flux. the results for the local nusselt number at the du...

In this study, the behavior of nanoparticles using a numerical model is discussed. For this study a model for the expansion in free convection heat transfer and mix in a rectangular container with dimensions of 1 × 4 cm using Nano-aerosols in the air is going when copper nanoparticles, use and by changing the temperature difference between hot and cold wall, we will examine its impact on the ra...

in the present study, mixed convection laminar flow around an adiabatic body in a lid-driven enclosure filled with nanofluid using variable thermal conductivity and variable viscosity is numerically investigated. the fluid around the body in the enclosure is a water-based nanofluid containing al2o3 nanoparticles. the vertical enclosure’s walls are maintained at constant cold temperature and the...

In this research, turbulent MHD convection of liquid metal with constant and variable properties is investigated numerically. The finite volume method is applied to model the fluid flow and natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity. The fluid flow and heat transfer were simulated and compared for two cases constant and variable properties. It is observed that for the case variable pro...

One of the major industry problems is the flow boiling, where reaching to the critical heat flux (CHF) condition can lead to a temperature jump and damage of the systems. In the present study, the effects of a uniform change in tube diameter on subcooled flow boiling and CHF was numerically investigated. The Euler-Euler model was used to investigate the relationship between the two liquid and v...

in this study, the effect of wall orientation on the optimum insulation position in the wall from different perspectives is studied numerically. using crank- nicolson one dimensional transient heat conduction equation is solved for the wall with convection boundary conditions. outdoor temperature is considered as a periodic function of time. since natural night ventilation is used in the buildi...

Using a quasi-static approach valid for Stefan numbers less than one, we derive approximate equations governing the movement of a phase change front for materials which generate internal heat. These models are applied for both constant surface temperature and constant surface heat flux boundary conditions, in cylindrical, spherical, plane wall and semi-infinite geometries. Exact solutions with ...
