kεα: a three‐equation eddy‐viscosity model of turbulence

Federico Ghirelli

To provide an eddy‐viscosity turbulence model that accounts for the non‐equilibrium shape of the energy spectrum and for the effect of velocity correlation on turbulent viscosity.

A collocation method based on one‐dimensional RBF interpolation scheme for solving PDEs

N. Mai‐Duy, R.I. Tanner

To present a new collocation method for numerically solving partial differential equations (PDEs) in rectangular domains.

On steady flow of a reactive variable viscosity fluid in a cylindrical pipe with an isothermal wall

O.D. Makinde

This paper aims to demonstrate an application of a novel approximation technique, for a function whose partial series is known, to a problem in thermal ignition in a combustible…

Mixed convection heat and mass transfer of non‐Newtonian fluids from a permeable surface embedded in a porous medium

Ali J. Chamkha, Jasem M. Al‐Humoud

To consider simultaneous heat and mass transfer by mixed convection for a non‐Newtonian power‐law fluid from a permeable vertical plate embedded in a fluid‐saturated porous medium…
