Mixed Convection in Cylinders – A Comprehensive Overview and Understanding
نویسنده
چکیده
: This paper gives a comprehensive overview and understanding related with mixed convection in cylinders. About onehundred papers which are published in different local and international journals and conferences started from the past decade until the recent years are collected and described in various sections to give both researchers and readers a good overview and a solid background about mixed convection flow and heat transfer in cylinders to develop their future researches. In addition, the papers reviewed including numerical, analytical and experimental works related with mixed convection in cylinders are grouped into categories which collect papers with the same research subject. Moreover, mixed convection in horizontal , vertical and rotating cylinders subjected to a different boundary conditions as well as cylinders embedded inside a channel , annulus and cavity are described and reviewed.

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 ...
متن کاملForced Convection Heat Transfer of Giesekus Viscoelastic Fluid in Concentric Annulus with both Cylinders Rotation
A theoretical solution is presented for the forced convection heat transfer of a viscoelastic fluid obeying the Giesekus constitutive equation in a concentric annulus under steady state, laminar, and purely tangential flow. A relative rotational motion exists between the inner and the outer cylinders, which induces the flow. A constant temperature was set in both cylinders, in this study. The f...
متن کاملFree Convection Flow and Heat Transfer of Nanofluids of Different Shapes of Nano-Sized Particles over a Vertical Plate at Low and High Prandtl Numbers
In this paper, free convection flow and heat transfer of nanofluids of differently-shaped nano-sized particles over a vertical plate at very low and high Prandtl numbers are analyzed. The governing systems of nonlinear partial differential equations of the flow and heat transfer processes are converted to systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equation through similarity transformations.
