Numerical analysis of heat transfer enhancement in a double pipe heat exchanger with porous fins

H. Kahalerras, N. Targui

The aim is to study numerically the heat transfer enhancement in a double pipe heat exchanger by using porous fins attached at the external wall of the inner cylinder.

Natural convection in a horizontal cylindrical annulus using porous fins

S. Kiwan, O. Zeitoun

Numerical analysis for the flow past a porous square cylinder based on the stress‐jump interfacial‐conditions

Xiaobing Chen, Peng Yu, S.H. Winoto, Hong‐Tong Low

The purpose of this paper is to report on the flow past a porous square cylinder, implementing the stress jump treatments for the porous‐fluid interface.

Performance evaluation of the cell‐based algorithms for domain decomposition in flow simulation

Junye Wang, Xiaoxian Zhang, Anthony G. Bengough, John W. Crawford

The cell‐based method of domain decomposition was first introduced for complex 3D geometries. To further assess the method, the aim is to carry out flow simulation in rectangular…
