Numerical study of grey‐body surface radiation coupled with fluid flow for general geometries using a finite volume multigrid solver

L. Kadinski, M. Perić

The paper presents a numerical technique for the simulation of theeffects of grey‐diffusive surface radiation on fluid flow using a finitevolume procedure for two‐dimensional…

Computation of isothermal and reacting Flows in turbojet afterburners

M. Ravichandran, V. Ganesan

Computation have been made of the three‐dimensional flow fielddevelopment, chemical reaction and combustion processes in a typicalafterburner system under both isothermal and…

Axisymmetric laser welding of ceramic and metallic materials: finite element modelling

J.A. Thomazin, L.G. Olson, J.W. Hirsch

In this paper, finite element techniques are used to model laser spotwelding of both metallic and ceramic materials. The materials modelled werealuminum and alumina, a typical…

Non‐local and local artificial boundary conditions for two‐dimensional flow in an infinite channel

Igor Patlashenko, Dan Givoli

The numerical solution of problems involving two‐dimensional flow in aninfinite or a semi‐infinite channel is considered. Beyond a certain finiteregion, where the flow and…

The application of split‐coefficient matrix method to transient two phase flows

D.M. Lu, H.C. Simpson, A. Gilchrist

An easy‐to‐use numerical model for transient two‐phase pipe flowanalyses was developed by applying the split‐coefficient matrix method (SCMM)to a homogeneous equilibrium two‐phase…

Conjugate heat transfer analysis of fluid flow in a phase‐change energy storage unit

Hongjun Li, C.K. Hsieh, D.Y. Goswami

A method has been developed for conjugate heat transfer analysis offluid flow inside parallel channels formed by a phase change material (PCM)separated from the fluid by a wall…
