in this paper, natural convection heat transfer over a vertical plate in a darcy porous medium saturated with a nanofluid subject to heat generation/absorption was theoretically studied. the governing partial differential equations were transformed to a set of ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations and solved using finite difference method. the influence of parametric ...

bubble column reactors are used in a wide variety of applications such as multiphase bioreactors, catalytic slurry reactors, and absorption processes. the superficial gas velocity-gas holdup relationship and transition point are two important parameters for characterizing the hydrodynamics of a bubble column reactor. in this study, systematic investigation of a nitrogen - water - glass beads bu...

We explore the relationship between two common two-phase flow models, usually denoted as the two-fluid and drift-flux models. They differ in their mathematical description of momentum transfer between the phases. In this paper we provide a framework in which these two model formulations are unified. The drift-flux model employs a mixture momentum equation and treats interphasic momentum exchang...

The paleoclassical model of radial electron heat transport in resistive, current-carrying toroidal plasmas is based on a key hypothesis — that electron guiding centers move and diffuse with radially localized annuli of poloidal magnetic flux. This hypothesis is shown to result from transforming the drift-kinetic-equation to poloidal flux coordinates in situations where this flux is governed by ...
