A numerical model for the thermocapillary flow and heat transfer in a thin liquid film on a microstructured wall
A. Alexeev, T. Gambaryan‐Roisman, P. StephanThis paper aims to study thermocapillarity‐induced flow of thin liquid films covering heated horizontal walls with 2D topography.
An evaluation of synthetic jets for heat transfer enhancement in air cooled micro‐channels
Victoria Timchenko, John Reizes, Eddie LeonardiThe development of novel cooling techniques is needed in order to be able to substantially increase the performance of integrated electronic circuits whose operations are limited…
Computational investigation of turbulent jet impinging onto rotating disk
A.C. Benim, K. Ozkan, M. Cagan, D. GunesThe main purpose of the paper is the validation of a broad range of RANS turbulence models, for the prediction of flow and heat transfer, for a broad range of boundary conditions…
A computational fluid dynamics analysis of a PEM fuel cell system for power generation
Elena Carcadea, H. Ene, D.B. Ingham, R. Lazar, L. Ma, M. Pourkashanian, I. StefanescuThis paper aims to present a three‐dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model that simulates the fluid flow, species transport and electric current flow in PEM fuel…
Modelling of the thermosolutal convection and macrosegregation in the solidification of an Fe‐C binary alloy
Z.Q. Han, R.W. Lewis, B.C. LiuThe motivation for this work is to establish a model that not only includes the main factors resulting in macrosegregation but also retains simplicity and consistency for the sake…
Modeling natural convection with the work of pressure‐forces: a thermodynamic necessity
M. Pons, P. Le QuéréThis paper aims to present and then resolve the thermodynamic inconsistencies inherent in the usual Boussinesq model, especially with respect to the second law, and to highlight…
Buoyancy effects on upward and downward laminar mixed convection heat and mass transfer in a vertical channel
Youssef Azizi, Brahim Benhamou, Nicolas Galanis, Mohammed El‐GanaouiThe objective of the present study is to investigate numerically the effects of thermal and buoyancy forces on both upward flow (UF) and downward flow (DF) of air in a vertical…
