Hydrodynamics of liquid flow in a rotating cone

P.E. Dijk, A.M.C. Janse, J.A.M. Kuipers, W.P.M. van Swaaij

The average residence time of liquid flowing over the surface of a rotating cone was determined numerically. The development and propagation of the free surface flow was simulated…

Variable porosity and thermal dispersion effects on coupled heat and mass transfer by natural convection from a surface embedded in a non‐metallic porous medium

Abdul‐Rahim A. Khaled, Ali J. Chamkha

The problem of coupled heat and mass transfer by natural convection from a vertical impermeable semi‐finite flat plate embedded in a non‐uniform non‐metallic porous medium in the…

Unsteady laminar hydromagnetic flow and heat transfer in porous channels with temperature‐dependent properties

Ali J. Chamkha

The problem of unsteady laminar fully‐developed flow and heat transfer of an electrically‐conducting and heat‐generating or absorbing fluid with variable properties through porous…

Numerical solution of radiative transfer equation coupled with nonlinear heat conduction equation

F. Asllanaj, G. Jeandel, J.R. Roche

A new way of solving the steady‐state coupled radiative‐conductive problem in semi‐transparent media is proposed. An angular discretization technique is applied in order to…

Natural convection in porous medium‐fluid interface problems ‐ A finite element analysis by using the CBS procedure

N. Massarotti, P. Nithiarasu, O.C. Zienkiewicz

Natural convection in porous medium‐fluid interface problems are numerically studied by using the characteristic based split (CBS) algorithm. The finite element method is used to…
