Rewetting of an infinite tube with internal heating

A.K. Satapathy, R.K. Sahoo

A numerical study has been made to investigate the effect of internal heating and precursory cooling during quenching of an infinite tube. The finite difference solution gives the…

Effectiveness of the operator splitting for solving the atmospherical shallow water equations

M.F. Carfora

A semi‐implicit semi‐Lagrangian mixed finite‐difference finite‐volume model for the shallow water equations on a rotating sphere is considered. The main features of the model are…

A deficient spline function approximation for boundary layer flow

H.M. El‐Hawary

In this paper a spline approximation of deficiency 3 and a step of length 3h method is proposed to approximate the solution of the problem and its derivatives. The Falkner‐ Skan…

A laminar swirling jet impingement on to an adiabatic wall ‐ Effect of inlet velocity profiles

S.Z. Shuja, B.S. Yilbas

A laminar swirling jet impinging on to an adiabatic solid wall is investigated. The flow field is computed and entropy analysis is carried out for different flow configurations…

Critical conductivity ratio for conjugate heat transfer in eccentric annuli

M.A.I. El‐Shaarawi, S.A. Haider

Conjugate laminar forced convection heat transfer in the entry region of eccentric annuli is numerically investigated. Heat transfer parameters are presented for a fluid of Pr …
