In this paper, new forms of Maxwell’s equations in vector and scalar variants are presented. The new forms are based on the use of Gauss’s theorem for magnetic induction and electrical induction. The equations are formulated in both differential and integral forms. In particular, the new forms of the equations relate to the non-stationary expressions and their integral identities. The indicated methodology enables a thorough analysis of non-stationary boundary conditions on the behavior of electromagnetic fields in multiple continuous regions. It can be used both for qualitative analysis and in numerical methods (control volume method) and optimization. The last Section introduces an application to equations of magnetic fluid in both differential and integral forms.

The three-dimensional numerical study of natural convection in a cubical enclosure, discretely heated, was carried out in this study. Two heating square sections, similar to the integrated electronic components, are placed on the vertical wall of the enclosure. The imposed heating fluxes vary sinusoidally with time, in phase and in opposition of phase. The temperature of the opposite vertical wall is maintained at a cold uniform temperature and the other walls are adiabatic. The governing equations are solved using Control volume method by SIMPLEC algorithm. The sections dimension ε = D / H and the Rayleigh number Ra were fixed respectively at 0,35 and 106. The average heat transfer and the maximum temperature on the active portions will be examined for a given set of the governing parameters, namely the amplitude of the variable temperatures a and their period τp. The obtained results show significant changes in terms of heat transfer, by proper choice of the heating mode and the governing parameters.

The modelling and numerical simulation of the drying process in porous media are discussed in this work with the objective of presenting the drying problem as the system of governing equations, which is ready to be solved by many of the now widely available control-volume-based numerical tools. By reviewing the connection between the transport equations at the pore level and their up-scaled ones at the continuum level and then by transforming these equations into a format that can be solved by the control volume method, we would like to present an easy-to-use framework for studying the drying process in porous media. In order to take into account the microstructure of porous media in the format of pore-size distribution, the concept of bundle of capillaries is used to derive the needed transport parameters. Some numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the use of the presented formulas.
