As commercial and military aircraft engines approach higher total temperatures and increasing overall fuel-to-air ratios, there exists a potential for significant heat release to occur in the turbine if energetic species emitted from the combustor are further oxidized during interaction with film-cooling flows. Currently there is little basis for understanding the effects on aero-performance an...

We present a theory that describes the non-local heat transport and associated thermal smoothing modeling the non-uniform laser illumination by solving the steady state Fokker-Planck (FP) equation. A method that connects higher order Chapman-Enskog expansion for low energy electrons and convolution formula for high energy ones through the self-consistent determination of the electric field is d...

The modeling of the heat transfer performance of supercritical carbon dioxide with a small amount of entrained PAG-type lubricating oil is presented in this paper. Due to the complexity of the heat transfer mechanism, including the complexity of the changes in the thermophysical properties, changes in the solubility of CO2 in oil, and the flow pattern at different temperatures and pressures, a ...

Local convective heat flux J(r) in turbulent thermal convection is obtained from simultaneous velocity and temperature measurements in a cylindrical cell filled with water. The measured J(r) in the bulk region shows a different scaling behavior with varying Rayleigh numbers compared with that measured in the plume-dominated regions near the sidewall and near the lower conducting plate. The loca...

Numerous lithium-ion battery (LIB) fires and explosions have raised serious concerns about the safety issued associated with LIBs; some of these incidents were mainly caused by overcharging of LIBs. Therefore, to have a better understanding of the fire hazards caused by LIB overcharging, two widely used commercial LIBs, nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP), with ...

whereas in electrical discharge machining (edm) the heat flux entering the workpiece is extremely high, the fourier heat conduction model may fails. this article reports on determination of temperature distribution in the workpiece due to edm using non-fourier heat conduction model. equations are solved by deriving the numerical solution. the temperature layers and profiles of sample calculatio...

The objective of this study is to find the temperature distribution of a slab as it moves through the pusher-type preheat furnaces. First, the imaginary planes method (IPM) as a new and applicable method for calculation of radiation heat transfer in industrial furnaces is studied, and the two-dimensional form of this method is used to calculate heat flux and temperature distribution in the furn...
