The study of boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an electrically conducting visco-elastic second grade fluid in a porous medium past a stretching sheet is conducting with power law surface temperature or power law surface heat flux. The flow in boundary layer is considered to be generated solely by the linear stretching of the boundary sheet adjacent to porous medium in a magnetic field wi...

Original scientific paper In present work, thermal transport considering heat radiation by oval heat source shape and heat transfer of molten moving electrode was presented. In present paper, an analytical solution was presented by aggregating temperature increments caused by applying liquid metal and heat radiation of moving electrode. The assumptions for the study were heat source of temperat...

The theory of open quantum systems is used to study the local temperature and heat currents in metallic nanowires connected to leads at different temperatures. We show that for ballistic wires the local temperature is almost uniform along the wire and Fourier’s law is invalid. By gradually increasing disorder, a uniform temperature gradient ensues inside the wire and the thermal current linearl...

The scale up of an isothermal micro-trickle bed reactor operated under radio frequency (RF) heating has been performed. The effect of the reactor length, tube diameter and number of parallel tubes on the temperature non-uniformity parameter has been studied. The axial and radial temperature profiles were calculated using a 2D convection and conduction heat transfer problem with heat transfer pr...

[1] Most parameterizations used in Large Eddy Simulations of the atmospheric boundary layer are based on the assumption that subgrid-scale fluxes are aligned against spatial gradients of transported quantities (down-gradient closures). Based on field experiments, we determine the distribution and most probable relative orientations of the subgrid-scale (SGS) heat flux relative to parameterizati...

Starting from a master equation in a quantum Hamilton form we study analytically a nonequilibrium system which is coupled locally to two heat bathes at different temperatures. Based on a lattice gas description an evolution equation for the averaged density in the presence of a temperature gradient is derived. Firstly, the case is analysed where a particle is removed from a heat bath at a fixed...

Establishment of a near-linear temperature gradient in an incubator has been accomplished by the application of heat to one terminus of a conducting body, normally a metal bar, and the removal of heat from the other terminus of the conducting body. Such incubators have been complex and unwieldy because of the need for mechanical refrigeration. We have described a simplified temperature gradient...

Transfer table is an essential stage between roughing and finishing rolling stands in a hot-strip rolling mill. High temperature and long time that strip is exposed to air at this stage cause a considerable heat loss that accounts for uneven temperature distribution, non-uniform surfaces, reduced product quality and increased production costs. Using thermal shields on the transfer table is cons...

The fluid flow and heat transfer in lid-driven enclosures filled with Cu-water nanofluid is numerically investigated. The moving vertical walls of the enclosure  are maintained in a constant temperature, while the horizontal walls are insulated. The hybrid scheme is used to discretize the convection terms and SIMPLER algorithm is adopted to couple the velocity field and pressure in the momentum...

the fluid flow and heat transfer in a three-dimensional microchannel filled with al2o3- water nanofluid is numerically investigated. the hybrid scheme is used to discretize the convection terms and simpler algorithm is adopted to couple the velocity and pressure field in the momentum equations. the temperature fields, variation of horizontal velocity along the centre line of the channel, averag...
