Heat and mass transfer, in this paper, is considered in one-row heat exchanger, that fins are hotter than air flow and water is added to fins. Related governing equations are derived by analyzing a two-dimension model in a unique cell of a heat exchange. These equations are numerically solved by finite difference method. Heat transfer and efficiency under partially wet surface are calculated by...

We investigate uniqueness in the inverse problem of reconstructing simultaneously a spacewise conductivity function and a heat source in the parabolic heat equation from the usual conditions of the direct problem and additional information from a supplementary temperature measurement at a given single instant of time. In the multi-dimensional case, we use Carleman estimates for parabolic equati...

Linear quasi-parabolic integro-differential equations and their control appear in many scientific problems and engineering applications such as biology mechanics, nuclear reaction dynamics, heat conduction in materials with memory, and visco-elasticity, etc.. The existence and uniqueness of the solution of the linear quasi-parabolic integro-differential equations have been studied by Wheeler M....

This paper addresses the solution of instationary parabolic evolution equations simultaneously in space and time. As a model problem we consider the heat equation posed on the unit cube in Euclidean space of moderately high dimension. An a priori stable minimal residual Petrov-Galerkin variational formulation of the heat equation in space-time results in a generalized least squares problem. Thi...

Boundary element methods are being applied with increasing frequency to time dependent problems, especially to boundary value problems for parabolic differential equations. Here we shall consider the heat equation as the prototype of such equations. Various types of integral equations arise when solving boundary value problems for the heat equation. An important one is the single layer heat pot...

We study the iterated quasi-reversibility method to regularize illposed elliptic and parabolic problems: data completion problems for Poisson’s and heat equations. We define an abstract setting to treat both equations at once. We demonstrate the convergence of the regularized solution to the exact one, and propose a strategy to deal with noise on the data. We present numerical experiments for b...

Laser plasma is modeled by Lagrangian hydrodynamical equations including heat conductivity and laser absorption. The hyperbolic part of the model is treated by Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) method which avoids moving mesh distortion and parabolic heat conductivity part is treated by splitting and mimetic method. High velocity laser accelerated disc impact problems for which standard Lagra...

The heat exchanger in a heat pump can be modelled by the zero Mach-number limit of the Euler equations of compressible fluid flow. This system turns out to be a coupled hyperbolic/parabolic equation with coupled, time-dependent boundary conditions. Using the theory of abstract differential-algebraic equations it is shown that the frozen coefficient system has ADAE index 1. Moreover, the much st...

In this work a new and promising algorithm based in the minimization of especial functional that depends on two regularization parameters is considered for identification of the heat conduction coefficient in the parabolic equation. This algorithm uses the adjoint and sensibility equations. One of the regularization parameters is associated with the heat-coefficient (as in conventional Tikhonov...
