Modelling dump combustor flows with and without swirl at the inlet using Reynolds stress models

J.H. Tsai, C.A. LIN, C.M. LU

Numerical simulations were applied to suddenly‐expanding‐pipe flows,with and without swirl at the inlet, using an eddy‐viscosity type k‐ε modeland Reynolds stress transport model…

A simultaneous iteration procedure for the finite element solution of the enthalpy model for phase change heat conduction problems

Zhen‐Xiang Gong, Arun S. Mujumdar

Based on a lumped mass model and an incremental iteration method, anefficient simultaneous iteration procedure is developed for the finiteelement solution of the enthalpy model…

Convective heat transfer in an annular fluid layer with centrifugal force field

K. Aboubi, L. Robillard, E. Bilgen, P. Vasseur

The present study deals with two‐dimensional convective motion due tothe effect of a centrifugal force field on a fluid contained between twohorizontal concentric cylinders, for…

Effects of variable property and surface radiation on laminar natural convection in a square enclosure

Swarnendu Sen, A. Sarkar

The interaction of variable property convection and surface radiation ina differentially heated square cavity is considered. Effect of surfaceradiation on natural convection has…

A numerical study of transient natural convection about a corrugated plate embedded in an enclosed porous medium

Shih‐Wen Hsiao

The problems of transient natural convection from a corrugated plateembedded in an enclosed porous medium is studied numerically. The non‐Darcianeffects as well as the…

Simulation of ice cover melting in turbulent flow

Raafat G. Saadé, Semaan Sarraf

In Northern Regions, ice covers that form on rivers, streams, and lakeswith the onset of winter, cause various problems related to winter navigationand pollution dispersion among…
