This paper describes the unsteady and three-dimensional characteristics of heat transfer from a circular cylinder to the cross-flow of air for Reynolds numbers from 120 to 30 000. An infrared camera was used to measure the time-spatial characteristics of heat transfer on the cylinder surface, heated under a condition of constant heat flux. Fluctuating heat transfer was measured using a heat flu...

the present article focuses on the evaluation of a first-moment closure model applicable to film cooling flow and heat transfer computations. the present first-moment closure model consists of a higher level of turbulent heat flux modeling in which two additional transport equations for temperature variance kθ and its dissipation rate εθ are considered. it not only employs a time scale that is ...

in this paper the optimal control of boundary heat flux in a 2-d solid body with an arbitrary shape is performed in order to achieve the desired temperature distribution at a given time interval. the boundary of the body is subdivided into a number of components. on each component a time-dependent heat flux is applied which is independent of the others. since the thermophysical properties are t...

[1] In summer on the shallow New England continental shelf, near the coast the water temperature is much cooler than the observed surface heat flux suggests. Using depth‐integrated heat budgets in 12 and 27 m water depth calculated from observed surface heat flux, water temperature, and velocity, we demonstrate that on time scales of weeks to months the water is persistently cooled due to a mea...

In this article, turbulent flow heat transfer in the air gap between rotor and stator of a generator under nonhomogeneous heat flux is studied experimentally. The rotor consists of four symmetrical triangular grooves. The stator surface is smooth and does not include any grooves. The relative heat flux between the rotor and the stator is 1 to 3. Temperature and heat flux are measured locally at...

A conjugate heat transfer investigation was conducted to better understand the effects of an impinging radial slot jet cooling device on both the heat transfer rates and temperature fields in the fluid, and especially in the cylindrical solid cooled by this device. Such temperature nonuniformities in the solid are of practical interest as they may result in phenomena such as nonuniform material...

This paper investigates the time evolution of the near-isobaric flow field produced in a gas after the sudden application of a constant heat flux from a localized energy source. The problems of plane, line, and point heat sources are all investigated, with a power law for the temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity, after reduction to a quasi-linear heat equation for the temperature....

thin bonded films have many applications in antireflection and reflection coating, insulating and conducting films and semiconductor industries. thermal conductivity is one of the most important parameter for power packaging since the thermal resistance of the interconnections is directly related to the heat removal capability and thermal management of the power package. the defects in material...

A one-dimensional numerical model and theoretical analysis involving both surface and in-depth radiative heat flux absorption are utilized to investigate the influence of their combination on ignition of PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate). Ignition time, transient temperature in a solid and optimized combination of these two absorption modes of black and clear PMMA are examined to understand the ig...

We analyze the sensitivity of the oceanic thermohaline circulation (THC) regarding perturbations in fresh water flux for a range of coupled oceanic general circulation – atmospheric energy balance models. The energy balance model (EBM) predicts surface air temperature and fresh water flux and contains the feedbacks due to meridional transports of sensible and latent heat. In the coupled system ...
