This article presents a BIE (Boundary Integral Equation) modeling that applies the technique of domain mapping (Shiah and Tan (1998) [12]) as well as MRM (Multiple Reciprocity Method (Nowak (1989) [10])) to treat the problem of 3D anisotropic heat conduction involving arbitrary volume heat source. By the domainmapping technique, the original function of the volume heat source is accordingly tra...

A new simple analytical model for prediction of cooling rate in the solidification process based on the local heat flux density extracted during solidification is introduced. In the modeling procedure, a solidifying control volume is considered in the mushy zone in which a heat balance equation is used to derive the present model. As the local heat flux density is a measurable parameter, the pr...

This paper considers the general problem of laminar, steady, horizontal, Oseen flow at large distances upstream and downstream of a two-dimensional body which is represented as a line source of horizontal or vertical momentum, or as a line heat source or heat dipole. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible, diffusive, viscous and stably stratified. The analysis is focused on the general prope...

In this paper, thermoacoustic dynamic behaviour patterns of a Rijke tube with a distributed heat source have been investigated. The heat release model consists of a row of distributed heat sources with individual heat release rates. The integrated heat release rate is then coupled with the acoustic perturbation for thermoacoustic analysis. Unlike the conventional approach utilizing the Galerkin...

the heat and mass transfer analysis for mhd casson fluid boundary layer flow over a permeable stretching sheet through a porous medium is carried out. the effect of non-uniform heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction are considered in heat and mass transport equations correspondingly. the heat transfer analysis has been carried out for two different heating processes namely; the prescr...

in order to study the yield and growth indix of potato under water deficit, an experiment was conducted with line-source sprinkler irrigation in khorasan razavi agricultural and natural resource research center. water deficit levels were included, at 0.75m from line-source (control), at 3.75m from line source (very mild deficit), at 6.75m from line-source (mild deficit), at 9.75m from line-sour...

The goal of this research is developing a unified numerical method for simulating continuum and transitional flow. To achieve our ultimate goal, first, hyperbolic-relaxation equations are introduced, then a new discretization method is developed. The method is based on Huynh’s upwind moment scheme, with implicit treatment of the source term. Our previous linear method is generalized to 1-D nonl...

This paper investigates the transient heat conduction around the buried spiral coils which could be applied in the ground-coupled heat pump systems with the pile foundation as a geothermal heat exchanger. A transient ring-coil heat source model is developed, and the explicit analytical solutions for the temperature response are derived by means of the Green’s function theory and the image metho...
