Development of RBF-DQ method for derivative approximation and its application to simulate natural convection in concentric annuli

 The radial basis functions (RBFs) have been proven to have excellent properties for interpolation problems, which can be considered as an efficient scheme for function approximation. In this paper, we will explore another type of approximation problem, that is, the derivative approximation, by the RBFs. A new approach, which is based on the differential quadrature (DQ) approximation for the derivative with RBFs as test functions, is proposed to approximate the first, second, and third order derivatives of a function. The performance of three commonly-used RBFs for some typical expressions of derivatives as well as the computation of one-dimensional Burgers equation are studied. Furthermore, the proposed method is applied to simulate natural convection in a concentric annulus by solving Navier–Stokes equations. The obtained results are compared well with exact data or benchmark solutions. Received: 27 June 2001 / Accepted: 29 July 2002     

Combined heat and mass transfer in natural convection between vertical parallel plates

Abstract

This study is to examine the effects of latent heat transfer associated with liquid film vaporization on heat transfer in the natural convection flows driven by the simultaneous presence of combined buoyancy forces of thermal and mass diffusion. Results are especially presented for an air‐water system under various conditions. The influences of channel length and system temperatures on the momentum, heat and mass transfer in the flow are investigated in great detail. The important role of transport of latent heat of vaporization under the situations of buoyancy‐aiding and opposing flows is clearly demonstrated.     

Evaporation heat and mass transfer in natural convection pipe flow

Abstract

A numerical analysis has been performed to examine film evaporation on natural convection heat and mass transfer in a vertical pipe. Coupled governing equations for liquid film and induced gas flow were simultaneously solved by the implicit finite difference method. Results for interfacial heat and mass transfer coefficients are specifically presented for ethanol film and water film vaporization. The predicted results indicate that the heat transfer from gas‐liquid interface to the gas flow is predominated by the transport of latent heat in association with film evaporation. The results are also contrasted with those of zero film thickness and show that the assumption of extremely thin film thickness made by Chang et al. [5] and Yan and Lin [19] is only valid for a system with a low liquid Reynolds number Re _l1. But as the liquid Reynolds number is high, the assumption becomes inappropriate.     

Numerical analysis of conjugate natural and mixed convection heat transfer of nanofluids in a square cavity using the two-phase method

In the present study, the problem of conjugate natural and mixed convection of nanofluid in a square cavity containing several pairs of hot and cold cylinders is visualized using non-homogenous two-phase Buongiorno's model. Such configuration is considered as a model of heat exchangers in order to prevent the fluids contained in the pipelines from freezing or condensing. Water-based nanofluids with Cu, Al₂O₃, and TiO₂ nanoparticles at different diameters ($25\text{nm}?d_p?145\text{nm}$) are chosen for investigation. The governing equations together with the specified boundary conditions are solved numerically using the finite volume method based on the SIMPLE algorithm over a wide range of Rayleigh number (${10}^4?\mathit{Ra}?{10}^7$), Richardson number (${10}^{-2}?\mathit{Ri}?{10}^2$) and nanoparticle volume fractions ($0?\phi ?5\%$). Furthermore, the effects of three types of influential factors such as: orientation of conductive wall, thermal conductivity ratio ($0.2?K_r?25$) and conductive obstacles on the fluid flow and heat transfer rate are also investigated. It is found that the heat transfer rate is significantly enhanced by incrementing Rayleigh number and thermal conductivity ratio. It is also observed that at all Rayleigh numbers, the total Nusselt number rises and then reduces with increasing the nanoparticle volume fractions so that there is an optimal volume fraction of the nanoparticles where the heat transfer rate within the enclosure has a maximum value. Finally, the results reveal that by increasing the thermal conductivity of the nanoparticles and Rayleigh number, distribution of solid particles becomes uniform.

Combined heat and mass transfer in MHD free convection from a vertical surface with Ohmic heating and viscous dissipation

The problem of combined heat and mass transfer of an electrically conducting fluid in MHD natural convection adjacent to a vertical surface is analyzed, taking into account the effects of Ohmic heating and viscous dissipation. The resulting governing equations are transformed using suitable transformations and then solved numerically by an implicit finite-difference technique. The solution is found to be dependent on the governing parameters including the magnetic field parameter, the buoyancy ratio between species and thermal diffusion, the Eckert number, the Prandtl number, and the Schmidt number. Effects of these major parameters on the transport behaviors are investigated methodically and typical results are illustrated to reveal the tendency of the solutions. Representative results are presented for the velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions, as well as the local skin-friction coefficient, local Nusselt number, and the local Sherwood number.
