the paper aims at investigating the effects of chemical reaction and thermal radiation on the steady two-dimensional laminar flow of viscous incompressible electrically conducting micropolar fluid past a stretching surface embedded in a non-darcian porous medium. the radiative heat flux is assumed to follow rosseland approximation. the governing equations of momentum, angular momentum, energy, ...

For wearers of protective clothing in radiation environments there are no quantitative guidelines available for the effect of a radiative heat load on heat exchange. Under the European Union funded project ThermProtect an analytical effort was defined to address the issue of radiative heat load while wearing protective clothing. As within the ThermProtect project much information has become ava...

the problem of steady magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow of an electrically conducting nanofluid due to an exponentially permeable stretching sheet with heat source/sink in presence of thermal radiation is numerically investigated. the effect of transverse brownian motion and thermophoresis on heat transfer and nano particle volume fraction considered. the governing partial differential eq...

A theoretical investigation is performed for studying the flow of heat transfer characteristics of Sakiadis and Blasius flow of magnetohydrodynamic Maxwell fluid with thermal radiation.

In this paper, the problem of unsteady stagnationpoint flow and heat transfer induced by a shrinking sheet in the presence of radiation effect is studied. The transformed boundary layer equations are solved numerically by the shooting method. The influence of radiation, unsteadiness and shrinking parameters, and the Prandtl number on the reduced skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer c...

This paper deals with the hydrodynamic and thermal analysis of a new type of porous heat exchanger (PHE). This system operates based on energy conversion between gas enthalpy and thermal radiation. The proposed PHE has one high temperature (HT) and two heat recovery (HR1 and HR2) sections. In HT section, the enthalpy of flowing high temperature gas flow that is converted to thermal radiation em...

nowadays two important discussions in academic parties all over the world are energy crisis and environment crisis. one of the strategies to deal with these crisises is using clean, renewable and domestic energy sources. one of the best renewable energies that can be used in different scales is solar energy. in iran which is considered among the greatest countries that receive huge amount of so...

During sporulation, Clostridium botulinum 33A developed resistance to ultraviolet and gamma rays about 2 hr prior to its development of heat resistance. During germination, loss of resistance to heat, ultraviolet radiation, and gamma radiation occurred essentially simultaneously.

In this study, thermal performance across straight convecting- radiating fin with temperature dependent thermal conductivity is considered. The variation of parameters (VPM) is adopted to analyze the nonlinear higher order differential equations arising due to thermal conductivity and heat transfer coefficient on temperature distribution. Pertinent parameters such as thermo geometric and radiat...
