چکیده
This paper investigates thermoelectric interface demarcation during directional solidi cation of Bismuth with varying gravitationally-dependent buoyancy convection. A physicsbased computer model is developed in which gravitational, thermoelectric and magnetohydrodynamic e ects are included. To help design our ongoing experimental tests, numerical simulations of directional solidi cation in a Bridgman-Stockbarger system are carried out and the combined gravitational (convection), thermoelectric (Peltier, Seebeck, Joule and Thomson) and magnetohydrodynamic (Lorentz) e ects are studied.

Peltier technology opens new opportunities for special applications. In the current project, this technology was applied to design and fabricate a portable thermoelectric beverage cooler and thermoelectric cup. The simulation and results of the experiment showed that the common beverage cooler is not a suitable design for ignoring the effect of natural convection in cooling. In our thermoel...

The interaction of thermal radiation with conduction and laminar natural convection in a vertical circular pin, situated at participating gas, is numerically investigated. An absorbing and emitting gas is considered, and treated to be a gray participating media. Under the idealizing of gray gas, the Rosselan4 approximation is employed to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. ...

The effect of partial slip and temperature dependent fluid properties on the MHD mixed convection flow from a heated, non-linearly stretching surface in the presence of radiation and non-uniform internal heat generation/absorption is investigated. The velocity of the stretching surface was assumed to vary according to power-law form. Thermal transport is analyzed for two types of non-isothermal...

In this study, the natural convection heat transfer of variable properties Al2O3-EG-water nanofluid in a differentially heated rectangular cavity has been investigated numerically. The governing equations, for a Newtonian fluid, have been solved numerically with a finite volume approach. The influences of the pertinent parameters such as Ra in the range of 103-107 and volume fraction of nanopar...
