The steady, laminar, two-dimensional wake above a thin vertical isothermal heated plate cooled by free convection was investigated theoretically and experimentally. The system of partial differential equations governing the fluid motion and heat transfer in the vicinity of the plate and in the near wake region was formulated and solved using finite difference techniques. Using air, the temperature and velocity profiles in the wake region were measured experimentally using a laser holographic interferometer and a constant temperature hot wire anemometer.

The present study examines the influence of heated, horizontal, and rotateable louvers on the convective heat transfer from a heated or cooled vertical isothermal surface. The system represents an irradiated Venetian blind adjacent to the indoor surface of a window. Detailed temperature field and local surface flux data were obtained using a Mach-Zehnder Interferometer for two window temperatures (warm and cool compared to ambient) and irradiation levels, two louver to plate spacings, and three louver angles. The results have been compared to a steady, laminar, two-dimensional, conjugate conduction/convection/radiation finite element model of this problem. The effect of the heated louvers on the heat transfer rate from the plate surface has been demonstrated and the results of the numerical study have been validated.

The effect of O 3 on C 2 H 4 /synthetic-air flame propagation at sub-atmospheric pressure was investigated through detailed experiments and simulations. A Hencken burner provided an ideal platform to interrogate flame speed enhancement, producing a steady, laminar, nearly one-dimensional, minimally curved, weakly stretched, and nearly adiabatic flame that could be accurately compared with simulations. The experimental results showed enhancement of up to 7.5% in flame speed for 11 000 ppm of O 3 at stoichiometric conditions. Significantly, the axial stretch rate was also found to affect enhancement. Comparison of the flames for a given burner exit velocity resulted in the enhancement increasing almost 9% over the range of axial stretch rates that was investigated. Two-dimensional simulations agreed well with the experiments in terms of flame speed, as well as the trends of enhancement. Rate of production analysis showed that the primary pathway for O 3 consumption was through reaction with H, leading to early heat release and increased production of OH. Higher flame stretch rates resulted in increased flux through the H+O 3 reaction to provide increased enhancement, due to the thinning of the flame that accompanies higher stretch, and thus results in decreased distance for the H to diffuse before reacting with O 3 .

Two-dimensional steady laminar flows past multiple thin blades positioned in near or exact sequence are examined for large Reynolds numbers. Symmetric configurations require solution of the boundary-layer equations alone, in parabolic fashion, over the successive blades. Non-symmetric configurations in contrast yield a new global inner–outer interaction in which the boundary layers, the wakes and the potential flow outside have to be determined together, to satisfy pressure-continuity conditions along each successive gap or wake. A robust computational scheme is used to obtain numerical solutions in direct or design mode, followed by analysis. Among other extremes, many-blade analysis shows a double viscous structure downstream with two streamwise length scales operating there. Lift and drag are also considered. Another new global interaction is found further downstream. All the interactions involved seem peculiar to multi-blade flows.

The boundary-layer equations for the steady laminar flow of a vertical jet, including a buoyancy term caused by temperature differences, are solved by similarity methods. Two-dimensional and axisymmetric jets are treated. Exact solutions in closed form are found for certain values of the Prandtl number, and the velocity and temperature distribution for other Prandtl numbers are found by numerical integration.
