a 2-d heat conduction model has been solved by using the adomian decomposition method topredict the transient temperature and heat flux distribution in a thick solid that is irradiated by a laser source.the laser source may operate in a continuous wave (cw) mode or repeated pulse (rp) mode and may havearbitrary, spatial and temporal profiles.a generalized solution containing five-terms approxim...

Sewage is a kind of ideal low-temperature heat sources. Sewage heat source pump system uses heat energy in sewage, and it is a method of utilizing sewage resources. In this article we analyze sewage’s characteristics and sewage source heat pump system; introduce its practical applications in sewage treatment plants in China, analyze its technical and economic characteristics, and discuss its ap...

   The present article describes the effects of thermal radiation and heat source/sink parameters on the mixed convective magnetohydrodynamic flow of a Casson nanofluid with zero normal flux of nanoparticles over an exponentially stretching sheet along with convective boundary condition. The governing nonlinear system of partial differential equations along with boundary conditions...

Abstract. In this report the development of a finite volume method for the time-accurate simulation of the temperature distribution in a premature infant inside an incubator or in an open radiant warmer is described. The real geometry of a premature infant is obtained from MRT-images. The infants thermoregulation is modelled by the so-called bio-heat-transfer-equation incorporating source terms...

Isothermal calorimetry operated in gas perfusion mode (IGPC) is often used to quantify the amorphous content of pharmaceutical powders. Typically, the calibration line is constructed using the heat of crystallisation as the sample is exposed to high levels of a plasticising vapour. However, since the physical form to which the amorphous fraction crystallises may be dependent on the presence of ...

Ground thermal energy as a clean and sustainable energy source has received significant attention lately. Several strategies and hybrid configurations have been proposed to harvest geothermal energy for air conditioning and industrial purposes. The possibility of moist soil freezing in the vicinity of borehole tubes is known to be the source of several benefits and difficulties. The high storag...
