Laminar Free Convection from a Horizontal Cylinder with Uniform Cross Section of Arbitrary Shape

Laminar Free Convection of Nanofluid Flow in Horizontal Porous Annulus

A numerical study has been carried out to investigate the heat transfer by natural convection of nanofluid taking Cu as nanoparticles and the water as based fluid in a three dimensional annulus enclosure filled with porous media (silica sand) between two horizontal concentric cylinders with 12 annular fins of 2.4mm thickness attached to the inner cylinder under steady state conditions. The gove...

Numerical and Experimental Studies of Laminar Natural Convection on a Horizontal Cylinder

This work deals with numerical and experimental studies of specific issues of natural convection flow around a horizontal cylinder in a space limited by rectangular cavity. Physical models of laminar unsteady flows have been used for numerical calculations of heat transfer coefficients of four different diameters of horizontal cylinders and for several temperature gradients. Procedures and resu...

Natural convection in a horizontal cylinder with axial rotation.

We study the problem of thermal convection in a laterally heated horizontal cylinder rotating about its axis. A cylinder of aspect ratio Γ=H/2R=2 containing a small Prandtl number fluid (σ=0.01) representative of molten metals and molten semiconductors at high temperature is considered. We focus on a slow rotation regime (Ω<8), where the effects of rotation and buoyancy forces are comparable. T...
