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.

Structure and Properties of a Natural Celulosic Hollow Fiber

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. ...

Effect of slip and variable thermal boundary conditions on hydromagnetic mixed convection flow and heat transfer from a non-linearly stretching ‎surface

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...

Investigation of Heat Transfer Enhancement or Deterioration of Variable Properties Al2O3-EG-water Nanofluid in Buoyancy Driven Convection

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...
