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...
متن کاملOptimization of 3-D natural convection around the isothermal cylinder using Taguchi method
This study discusses the application of Taguchi method in assessing minimum entropy generation and maximum heat transfer rate for natural convection in an enclosure embedded with isothermal cylinder. The simulations were planned based on Taguchi’s L25 orthogonal array with each trial performed under different conditions of position and aspect ratio (AR) of the cylinder. The thermal lattice Bolt...
متن کاملNatural convection heat transfer above heated horizontal surfaces
An extensive reasoned review of the results available in the literature for free convection heat transfer from a heated flat plate facing upwards, is conducted. The review is organized in the form of a table, so as to give the reader the opportunity to compare the heat transfer data, expressed through dimensionless equations, as well as the conditions under which these data were obtained. A com...
متن کاملNumerical investigation of natural convection phenomena in uniformly heated trapezoidal Cylinder inside an elliptical Enclosure
A numerical study of the natural convection of the laminar heat transfers in the stationary state was developed in a horizontal ring and compared between a heated trapezoidal internal cylinder and a cold elliptical outer cylinder. This annular space is traversed by a Newtonian and incompressible fluid. The Prandtl number is set to 0.7 (air case) for different Rayleigh numbers. The system of equ...
متن کاملNatural Convection Heat Transfer From Horizontal Cylinders in a Vertical Arra Confined Between Parallel Walls
Laminar natural convection from an array of horizontal isothermal cylinders confined between two vertical walls, at low Rayleigh numbers, is investigated by theoretical and numerical methods. The height of the walls is kept constant, however, number of the cylinders and their spacing, the distance between the walls and Rayleigh number have been varied. The optimal spacing (confining walls) and ...
