One of the great enemies of rubber compounds is heat. Heat will cause chemical and physical degradation of vulcanized rubber as well as a considerable loss in its strength. A major source of heat generation in a tire is due to internal friction resulting from the viscoelastic deformation of the tire as it rolls along the road. Another source of heat generation in a tire is due to its contact fr...

In this paper, the effect of the Brownian term in natural convection of CuO-Water nanofluid inside a partially filled porous cavity, with internal heat generation has been studied. It is assumed that the viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluid consists of a static part and a Brownian part of which is a function of temperature and the volume fraction of nanofluid. Because of internal hea...

background: heat stress is one of the most important consequences of occupational heat exposure worldwide. current heat stress indexes are not suitable for heat strain screening in developing countries due to their inherent and applied limitations. a new observation and subjective screening method is required that needs no instrument. in this study, a scale is developed based on the most import...

Using a quasi-static approach valid for Stefan numbers less than one, we derive approximate equations governing the movement of a phase change front for materials which generate internal heat. These models are applied for both constant surface temperature and constant surface heat flux boundary conditions, in cylindrical, spherical, plane wall and semi-infinite geometries. Exact solutions with ...

In this work, analysis of transient three-dimensional heat transfer in a slab with internal heat generation and heated by a point moving heat source along its axis is carried out using integral transforms methods. The heat input into slab or workpiece by the moving heat source is considered in the model. From the results, it was established that the temperature of the material during the heat t...

The steady free convection boundary layer over a vertical cone embedded in a porous medium filled with a non-Newtonian fluid with an exponential decaying internal heat generation is studied in this paper. We adopt for the non-Newtonian fluid the well-known model of a power-law fluid. Two cases are considered, Variable Wall Temperature (VWT) and Variable Heat Flux (VHF), respectively. As for the...
