Natural convection in enclosures with localized heating from below and symmetrical cooling from sides

Orhan Aydin, Wen‐Jei Yang

Natural convection of air in a two‐dimensional, rectangular enclosure with localized heating from below and symmetrical cooling from the sides has been numerically investigated…

Radiation in boundary layer flow of an absorbing, emmiting and anisotropically scattering fluid

C.K. Krishnaprakas, K. Badari Narayana, Pradip Dutta

Radiative heat transfer in the laminar boundary layer flow of an absorbing, emitting and anisotropically scattering gray fluid over a flat plate, with the surface of the plate…

Numerical computations of flow in rotating ducts with strong curvature

F. Papa, K. Vaidyanathan, T.G. Keith, K.J. DeWitt

The artificial compressibility method is used to analyze internal flows in rotating ducts having strong curvature. This study was concerned with the laminar flow of an…
