A numerical study of the steady state freezing of water in an open rectangular cavity

P.H. Oosthuizen, J.T. Paul

A numerical study of the flow in and heat transfer across a verticalcavity containing pure water when the aspect ratio of the cavity is low, i.e.1 or less, has been undertaken…

G—jitter effects on mass transfer in annular liquid jets

J.I. Ramos

This paper analyses numerically the effects of sinusoidal g—jitter onthe fluid dynamics of, and mass transfer in, annular liquid jets. It is shownthat the pressure and volume of…

Asymptotic solution of natural convection problem in a square cavity heated from below

M. Grundmann, A. Mojtabi, B. Van ’T Hof

Studies a two‐dimensional natural convection in a porous, square cavityusing a regular asymptotic development in powers of the Rayleigh number.Carries the approximation through to…

Natural convective heat transfer in an enclosure partly filled with a non‐porous insulation

D. Naylor, P.H. Oosthuizen

Solves steady, laminar, two‐dimensional, conjugate natural convection inan rectangular enclosure numerically. The enclosure consists of heated andcooled isothermal walls connected…

Numerical solution of the thermally‐assisted diffusion of hydrogen in zirconium alloys considering hysteresis and finite‐rate kinetics

Gustovo C. Buscaglia, Raúl A. Enrique

Presents a new method for the numerical simulation of diffusion withphase‐change. The method is able to handle hysteresis and finite‐ratekinetics in the phase‐change reaction…

Simulation of planar high speed combustion phenomena

M.M. Cerimele, F. Pistella

A modified version of an essentially non‐oscillatory high resolutionscheme is applied to the simulation of two‐dimensional combustion waves.Through the splitting of the governing…

Three‐dimensional computations of transverse helium jets in a supersonic air flow

P.Y. Tzeng, J.H. Sheu

This paper describes a study concerning the numerical simulation of asonic helium jet through a transverse nozzle in a flat plate exhaustingnormally into a supersonic air flow…
