Numerical solutions for heat and mass transfer by laminar flow of a Newtonian, viscous, electrically conducting chemically reacting viscous dissipative fluid on a continuously vertical permeable surface in the presence of a heat source, a first – order homogeneous chemical reaction and the mass flux are reported. The plate is assumed to move with a constant velocity in the direction of fluid fl...

Current earth observation models do not take into account the influence of water salinity on the evaporation rate, even though the salinity influences the evaporation rate by affecting the density and latent heat of vaporization. In this paper, we adapt the SEBS (Surface Energy Balance System) model for large water bodies and add the effect of water salinity to the evaporation rate. Firstly, SE...

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...

mold powders are fluxing agents used as raw materials in the steel industry, which play very important role inprocessing stability and final surface quality of a product. surface quality depends particularly on the viscosity and the heat transfer of infiltrated mold flux between the mold wall and the solidified steel shell. heat flux across the interfacial gap depends on thermal properties of s...

Abstract: Properly understanding heat flux characteristics is a crucial prerequisite to efficiently applying a regenerative burner in an aluminum reheating furnace. A series of experiments was conducted in this study in order to establish a database of the best available burners according to furnace temperature, excess air ratio, and flame combustion mode as they affect heat flux characteristic...

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...

An alternative example of the method of multiple scales is presented. This example arises in the study of the classical heat equation with a slowly varying flux imposed at one end. The module presents introductory ideas about dimensionless variables, multiple-scale expansions, and scaling of the dependent variable. The necessarily obfuscating algebraic computation is less than that for more fam...

This paper presents the heat transfer coefficients and the pressure drop measured during HC-600a (Isobutane) condensation inside a brazed plate heat exchanger: the effects of saturation temperature, refrigerant mass flux and vapour super-heating are investigated. The heat transfer coefficients show weak sensitivity to saturation temperature and great sensitivity to refrigerant mass flux. At low...
