AbstractA three-dimensional model of the temperature and velocity distribution within any arbitrary-shaped ice mass is described. There is a mutual interaction in the model between the flow of the ice and its thermodynamics, since the flow law used in the model is temperature-dependent.Ice growth in three dimensions is governed by mass accumulation through precipitation, by mass depletion through loss of ice over the ocean, and by continuity requirements. Phase changes at the base of the ice are accounted for. The model has been applied in art exploratory manner to the Greenland ice sheet. Changes in the ice shape and temperature are presented and discussed. The basic shortcoming of the model as here presented appears primarily due to the coarse finite-difference mesh used, and to an unsophisticated approach to modelling the boundary ice.

In this research, we studied the impact of temperature dependent viscosity and thermal radiation on Eyring Powell fluid with porous channels. The dimensionless equations were solved using the perturbation technique using the Weissenberg number (ε ≪ 1) to obtain clear formulas for the velocity field. All of the solutions for the physical parameters of the Reynolds number (Re), magnetic parameter (M), Darcy parameter (Da) and Prandtl number (Pr) were discussed through their different values. As shown in the plots the two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphical results of the velocity profile against various pertinent parameters have been illustrated with physical reasons. The results revealed that the temperature distribution increases for higher Prandtl and thermal radiation values. Such findings are beneficial in the field of engineering sciences.

A Modified Hazen-Dupuit-Darcy (M-HDD) model, incorporating nonlinear temperature-dependent viscosity effects, has been proposed recently for predicting the global pressure-drop of nonisothermal flows across a heated (or cooled) porous medium channel. Numerical simulations, mimicking the flow of a liquid with nonlinear temperature-dependent viscosity, are presented now for establishing the influence of inlet temperature on the pressure-drop and on the predictive capabilities of the M-HDD model. As a result, new generalized correlations for predicting the coefficients of the M-HDD model are derived. The results not only demonstrate the importance of fluid inlet temperature on predicting the global pressure-drop but they also extend the applicability of the M-HDD model.
