Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOn Self-similar Solution of Non-linear Diffusion Equation with Convection TermB. I. Olajuwon, A. O. PopoolaWe consider the self-similar solution of non-linear diffusion equation with convection term. We examine the existence and uniqueness of solution of the problem. The numerical result is presented as concentration profile for various values of m, the diffusion index. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,312 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeat Generation/Absorption Effect on Natural Convection Flow in a Vertical Annulus with Time-Periodic Boundary ConditionsMichael O. Oni, Basant K. JhaThe role of heat generation/absorption on natural convection flow formation in a vertical annulus with prescribed time-periodic heating is investigated in this article. The governing continuity, momentum and energy equations are converted into ordinary differential equation using suitable transformations and closed form expressions are obtained for temperature distribution, velocity profile, Nusselt number, skin friction and mass flow rate in terms … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2019 · 6,335 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study of Natural Convection in a Square Porous Cavity Thermally Modulated on Both Side WallsGiovani E.B. Malomar, Abdoulaye Gueye, Cheikh Mbow et al.The numerical study of natural convection in a square porous cavity saturated by a Newtonian fluid is presented in this study. The vertical walls are subjected to temperatures varying sinusoidally in time and phase opposition while the upper and lower horizontal walls are thermally adiabatic. Darcy model is used, it is also assumed the fluid studied is incompressible and obeys … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 13 Aug 2016 · 7,912 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCritical Aging Segments of Power Transmission LineH. H. Goh, N. E. Chin, Q. S. Chua et al.Nowadays, blackouts or sags of a conductor are threatening the safety and stable run of the power transmission lines. These phenomena happen due to the environmental conditions which change over the time, such as aging or temperature variations, precipitation and hotspots of power transmission lines as a result of extreme weather conditions. A precipitation condition result loses of heat from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2013 · 9,264 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombined Thermal Radiation and Mixed Convection in an Inclined Circular DuctW. Lakhal, S. Trabelsi, E. Sediki, M. MoussaProblem statement: Modeling thermal radiation with simultaneous buoyancy and forced convection for real gases flowing inside system with complex geometry is a difficult task encountered in engineering applications. Purpose of this study was to research numerically the interaction of mixed convection and thermal radiation in laminar air flow inside an inclined cylindrical duct with Uniform Wall Heat Flux (UWHF). This … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,292 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThermal Performance Assessment for Laminar Forced Convection with Downstream Reformed-V and Reformed-Double-V GeneratorsWithada Jedsadaratanachai, Amnart BoonloiThermal assessments for laminar flow in an isothermal wall square channel over downstream Reformed-V (RV) and Reformed-Double-V (RDV) generators inserted diagonally are presented numerically in three dimensional. The RV and RDV are designed to comfort for forming and installing in the heat exchanger channel. The effect of RV and RDV height is investigated in terms of blockage ratio, b/H, BR … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 1 Jan 2015 · 6,747 accessesView PDF Cite
